Re: Is it worth the effort?
The way I understand it is as follows. I have a SINGLE competency certificate for Handgun, Rifle & Shotgun. It is issued in 2012 with no expiration date. I then apply and get my licence for a handgun in 2013 with an expiration date of 2018. If this is the only firearm I buy, yes then I agree that the licence and competency both expires in 2018.
But now I also buy a rifle in 2015 using the same competency certificate of which the licence will expire in 2025. Surely the competency as a WHOLE will only now expire in 2025, part of of can't expire in 2018 and the rest in 2025?

Re: Is it worth the effort?
License (under amnesty) for your CZ under section 16 with NHSA, thats the fastest, cheapest and less effort route, renew your competency in any case, every DFO has their own weird rules but its no real effort, then get whatever you want under section 13, it might seem like a ton of effort, but the end of the day you get to keep your fathers CZ and it gets to stay off the streets...

Re: Is it worth the effort?
Just as a follow up... so I did the amnesty application under Section 16 in September last year and I just received the sms that it was approved. I did my own motivation and it turned out not too bad. Also did not have to renew my competency. Great result all around.
