    Can you just spell it out for the whole class @systolic instead of doing what ever it is you just did? We can all learn a thing or too. Section 49A?

    I think you are placing too much literal emphases on the words "unlawful" and "possession". I get your point, I was wrong to simplify something as complex as the law in an "off-hand" statement about "using firearms"

    Thanks for pointing that out.

    I'll refer to a case of Unlawful Possession where a hunter was caught hunting without a firearms license. This is not a direct parallel with your section 49A reference but it gives you an idea of how these things can be interpreted [in court as opposed to forums]. It was deemed in the end that the act of "hunting" is a tradition (from some old case law) and therefore not unlawful. Both the charge of "Unlawful Hunting" and therefore "Unlawful Possession" were thrown out. This is an over simplification on my part but I dont have the typing skills to go into detail and besides @systolic it would seem you can use a keyboard as well as the next forum warrior so you could likely find that bit of case law yourself by digging around.

    Nothing in law, is ever straight forward. I apologise to you wholeheartedly for getting it so wrong.

    Conclusions after whats been stated on here after reading all this ?

    Brendon Diack crashing through the southland bush......

    Mark being in a paddock in the fog....at the time of that tragedy.

    It has been stated it was a beautiful clear sunny day....but was it foggy at the time of that incident...or did fog have nothing to do with it?

    Police admit flawed investigation......

    The two shot scenario......two bullet holes in marks swandri.

    Brendon Diack maintains only one shot fired.

    What exactly did happen.....There seems to be misconceptions.....Perhaps the police what this firearm incident swepted under the carpet ?

    The public can only wonder and speculate on what happen...particularly the two shot scenario ?
