Thinking back, not sure what I was thinking that they will look after it properly...

    Good luck to the poor fellows with their expensive hunting rifles.

    I truly hope that these type of issues will not be a common occurrence.

    So after nearly a year there is a heartbeat again. Application is now in the (Preperation for consideration stage). Holding thumbs that it will be aporoved soon, and that there may be many others to follow this trend.

    This app went in to Consideration last week and the Approvel sms came through this evening. Another friend's app is also in consideration.

    Nearly a year after my initial post and the three I am tracking show as "received at licensing". So glad I didn't hold my breath!! 355 working days and counting.

    Not mine, two friens I assisted. Both were handguns under Section 13. The one expired in 2016. And the other one in 2018
