"Second grip forward of the trigger" was put forward as a MSSA feature as part of the 2009 'reinterpretation' by Police of what constituted a pistol grip, but this interpretation was overturned in...

Good to know, thanks. Still think the AO should have mentioned this though.

Interesting that he didn't tell me this himself. All I got was a one line reply as per original post. No offer to help with an email.

Here's another quirk of the rules. Import restrictions for parts. I got confirmation from my AO that I can import a 10 round magazine without a permit, but I would have to prove to Customs that I...

You don't have anything to worry about. If it's not semi-automatic, then MSSA restrictions don't apply. High capacity magazines, pistol grips, flash suppressors, adjustable/folding stocks are all...

Firearms legislation and case law is never basic. Everything is open to interpretation.

You're suggesting that I could have a 30 round magazine sitting next to a semi-auto rifle capable of...

The example usually given is owning a Ruger 10/22 and a Ruger 77/22. 25 round mags are common enough, but because that 25 round mag COULD be...

It has been established in court that you can't own an A-cat rifle and be in possession of a high capacity magazine that will fit that rifle (even if you never actually fit it, mere possession of the...
