Headshot08 36 Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 (edited) My parents said that i can have one as im legally old enough but if the Officer asks they dont want it in their house? Basically they cant stop me but they aint signing anything? Steve Edited December 14, 2008 by Headshot08 Quote Link to post
SportingShooter 0 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 In that case, unless your parents say you can install a cabinet, there isn't a lot you can do. When you're 17 they wont have to sign anything, and you're parents wont need to be present when you have your interview. So as long as they give you the go ahead before hand to install the cabinet, then realistically, your parents aren't involved. Quote Link to post
Headshot08 36 Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 So basically if i say F**k it i want to get it done and they say i can have my cabinate installed? They themselves cannot do anything about me having a gun inside their house? Steve Quote Link to post
Headshot08 36 Posted December 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 The only other option is that the gun is kept at someone elses house? is this possible? Steve Quote Link to post
SportingShooter 0 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Its not a case of they cannot do anything, it's their property and your parents. You can install a cabinet in someone else's house, but hardly convenient is it? Access is the keyword in all FAC & SGC matters, if only you have access and the cabinet is securely fastened, then that meets the requirements. SS :thumb: Quote Link to post
