    A newbie with a licence question ...

    Hi all,

    I am planning to go for my firearms licence within the next month, I have already sat and past my test and am just playing the waiting game untill I turn the the golden age of 16.

    I just have one question regarding a part of the licence process, with the referee that is un-ralated and over 20 years of age do they need to have been to your house and seen where your firearm will be kept?

    Look forward to getting into this fourm,

    Cheers.

    Welcome !

    Sorry don't know the answer to your question but i think not.
    Its up to the AO to inspect your security as i understand it.

    Ideally I think it would help, but it is more of a character reference, the AO will inspect your security himself.

    Welcome and good luck with the licence app!

    Got My Firearms licence about 2 months back now, was a referee for a mate and he was a referee for me at the same time. For the most part the questions are related to whether your referee has seen you handling firearms, and if so your attitude towards the firearms. Other then that the questions seemed to be related to you as a person i.e. your character, level of responsibilty, gang connections, mental state etc.
    One of the most important question seemed to be the "Do you think that anyone should be scared if the person that you are acting as a referee for had firearms"
    Welcome and good luck with your application.

    Welcome Kapitishooter and welcome to you as well Thirdguy.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
