Thread: What do you think and where do I stand?

I talked to my AO just before Christmas regarding shooting targets around home, he just said to tell my neighbours what I'm doing and I will be fine. I also asked if I should ring the local cop shop and tell them what I would be doing, he said not to bother. Originally I thought this was great but the more I thought about it, it isn't my neighbours that would concern me it's the people that drive, walk, bike past that might make the phone call, then where would I stand? I would shit myself if the armed offenders turned up.
I think the rule "to frighten or annoy" should be amended? eg; the non-hunter going for a walk with his kids on DOC land, hears gun shoots which "frightened" him, even thou he is in an area where hunting is allowed.

This whole thread should be in the Firearms Safety topic?
