I pointed out that:
There really isn't much evidance to call for that - our firearm crime is really low, despite the proliferation of semi auto rifles
The same A cat shooter can go to the local gun store and get a Beretta Extrema and fill it up with buck shot, have an equally deadly weapon depending on the circumstances
But the conversation got shut down by Mike because it was irrelevant to the meeting.
We also recommended that payment for licensing be facilitated online - Mike was keen on this, more or less said it should be a given in this day and age.
I bought up examples of AO's interpreting the arms act to suit their own prejudices or what not. Mike stated that it is a training issue and they had dropped the ball on this. I also mentioned that front counter staff should be able to handle mail order forms without fobbing it off as no their responsibility. Another training issue to be resolved.
