Building authority wants site inspection

Hmm. Well, the way you write it, I would also raise my eyebrows a bit at a viewing appointment.

Regarding weapons: it doesn't matter at all what professional background a gun owner has. It's about the way they handle them. Personally, I don't find weapons unusual for an ex-policeman. We play paintball and our markers hang on the wall. That doesn't make me a gun fanatic.

On the topic of weapons: it doesn't matter at all what professional background a gun owner has.

Hello Evolith

not entirely. For a technical scientific collecting activity, there should be more knowledge than with a "normal" firearms permit. The "red" firearms permits are not that widespread. And a collection of the most modern weapons without limitation on the manufacturing date is further filtered. In that case, the professional background can be the final bit for approval.

I would be careful that your defiance and non-cooperation are not passed on further and your weapons possession license is revoked.

Hello ypg

your allusion to a certain kind of "official assistance" is also not helpful. Do you really believe that the building authority calls the weapons authority, complains about my "uncooperative" behavior, and then the weapons authority revokes my weapons law permits? These wet dreams, which are certainly still dreamed in some official offices, should not exist.

... yes, in Switzerland many households have ordinance weapons and also assault rifles - but the ammunition is generally obtained at the shooting range. Handling the weapons is practiced regularly over about 20 years and is not a form of hobby or pleasure ... that probably only gives you wet dreams, certainly not me.

Hello Nofret

Fully automatic rifles are ordnance weapons. I myself own a Swiss STG57 (converted back to semi-auto). It is a very interesting roller-delayed blowback system. The term assault rifle was created in honor of Adolf Hitler. The MP43 was not strong enough for him in name. So in 1944 the weapon was renamed StG44. And the ammunition at the shooting range: you can do that. It is of course much more expensive. When my ammunition stock falls below 5,000 rounds, I reorder. A certain reserve is necessary. And the Swiss are also mindful of reserves with the 6.5 x 55. Especially because they can buy surplus ammunition very cheaply from army stocks. And mostly in 500-piece boxes.

I don't know which police you were with, but municipalities often work together, at some offices absolutely necessary (e.g. youth welfare office, driver's license office, trade supervisory office). Information sheets are written and passed on for the purpose of checking the person. That is quite normal.
