    In for a substitution recently and after having my application lost, a new one sent put and my original application found and processed, I received my new license, minus some items.

    Notably the 'S' was missing but the new ammo allowance was an all time low :p

    Ive since spoken to the supers office and the 'S' will be on the reissued license as will the ammo amount I requested.

    I saw a licence where the only condition was that the firearm was "not to be discharged within the state". Unbelievable, especially when one of the conditions for getting the license in the first place was to be a member of a club (so that the owner has somewhere safe to dry fire).

    Unfortunately this condition was very deliberately put on the license, unlike the typo above.

    Was that be chance someone with a very large cal big game rifle?Good chance that if it was that could be a potential death sentence for the owner if they were hunting dangerous game and not knowing if their rifle will fire or not.The most terrifying sound is hearing CLICK when you should be hearing BANG when some large weighty or toothy critter is bearing down on you.

    No, it was a 9mm CZ Shadow and I saw the license.

    In fairness with a DG rifle they should probably impose a minimum usage requirement. That'd be more useful! (Would hurt the pocket mind)

    Essentially the only thing missing there was one of these :

    ................. cause displaying it would have been all the gun was good for. Suppose though, thinking like the Super, his thinking was if i don't let him have ammo then he hardly needs a suppressor. :D
