Attach you hunting permit, It's written permission to hunt on DOC administered land surely?

You are right, it does give permission but what name and number can I put down?

So an organisation see that on the form, turn around and ask you "so you're only ever doing day trips for this ?" Think before you answer because there's a trap in it

Hey guys, just got home from speaking with the AO here in Christchurch. After showing him my application and hunting permit he just told me to use another friend with a Firearms licence as a referee instead of Nick Smith.
The only thing he was really interested in was security. So after putting down my partner and 2 Refs with A-cat licences he was happy. Only thing left to do is have my safe looked at and an interview.
Unfortunately one of my refs lives in Auckland so he said it may take a while..
Another good thing he told me was i can continue hunting with my rifle even though its now e-cat because of the 6 month grace period. (might have been common knowledge but i just found out haha)

Now the waiting game..

Thanks Nate, I'm jumping through these hoops soon and it's good to know
