IDIOTS! Any chance they'll REFUSE YOU for the air rifle (do you have it?) - that would make you a gun nut criminal would it not? Just more silly nonsense!

Home visit went really well although I had to prompt her to ask me about the LBR and 9mm rifle I had added. She hadn't been told to ask me about those. So we didn't even discuss the 223 rifle and the moderator I have asked for. 12 days and counting.
