    Mike agreed with the premise once you were deemed fit and proper to have an A it should be no different for any other endorsements. But did not give an explanation as to why you have to be vetted by the police again.

    That is something I have wondered about often, if you are deemed "fit and proper" to hold A cat. firearms then you surely should only be subject to specific categories storage requirements.

    You are either fit and proper, or you are not.

    In regards to firearms there are not any other options. It's not a case of "he's good to own a hunting rifle but he cannot have a E. Cat. because he is a lil bit crazy"

    Sure, handguns and proper milspec stuff still require some kind of registration but really the people using ANY type of firearm to commit crime don't give a fuck.

    They just end up in my care eventually, hopefully before they kill someone, unfortunately that ain't usually the case.
