Thread: Colfo Announce Firearms Registry Review

It is the only benefit of the register, apart from boosting the public perception we are acting honestly and legally as firearms users.

But yes I agree it is a waste of time, I'm trying to look on the bright side here.

Just attach a NAIT tag to guns Micky. Well obviously it would be called a NGIT tag because it is a gun not a animal. Then problem solved.
Cause the NAIT system works so well.
Oh that's right. Forget I said anything.
