Appeal vs Re-application
What would the best course of action be in case of a refusal? Appeal or re-apply? I'm getting conflicting views.

Re: Appeal vs Re-application
My first S13 application was refused. I re-applied with the exact same motivation and it was approved the second time.
YMMV

Re: Appeal vs Re-application
If your motivation is strong and your application was declined with some bs generic reason (you couldn't convince the registrar of a need for this firearm), then appeal.
If your application was declined for a specific reason, then fix that problem and re-apply.

Re: Appeal vs Re-application
I have re applied just to be refused again and then won on appeal. So I firmly believe an appeal is the way to go if your initial application was solid

Re: Appeal vs Re-application
I have come to the conclusion that there is no way of determining best method, there is no rhyme or reason for way they work, or fail to work its just a plain F"Up. No logic no reason no procedure, just a good ol shit hole mess.

Re: Appeal vs Re-application
I appeal every time. With the first refusal, I appealed and re-applied. I had the firearm in my hand through the appeal before the re-application went through the process
