Extension dates poll

rrpc

I've been wondering how many people have got extensions to the earliest date possible (31/10/09) as it appears to me that quite a number of us have.

Maybe because we all have restricted stuff or something , but I'll stick up a poll and see how it turns out.

I've not done this before and I need this to be a multiple entry one as some people have more than one cert and more than one date.

OK, that didn't work so well, I wanted people to have multiple choices (got that bit alright) and more than one vote (that didn't happen) so if anyone else thinks they can have a go, please do so

Mine are extended until the 31/OCT/2009 I have restricted stuff, just in case you need to know for stats. It would be interesting to know if the people who have dates passed the 31st of Oct have restricted firearms in their portfolios

31/10, no restricted gear (are Air Pistols restricted?)

I'm a special case

I have two pulse ID's and one restricted item (it's not actually restricted, but that has to be asserted) so I have two renewal dates: one for each pulse ID.

They are until proven otherwise.

Ah, well it is being sold off so shouldn't be an issue in the future!

You're missing something.
You can apply a maximum of three months in advance.

And that is the point that people seem to be missing.

For those with long extensions the Gardaí will not want to see their applications until 3 months before their extensions expire. It will be difficult enough dealing with the applications that are tight for time without having non urgent applications clogging the system.

+1

Also those who are making substitutions or other variations to an existing cert may apply for that at any time regardless of when their extension runs out.

Who voted 31st July 2010?

According to the SI, the last date was 30th June, so noone should have got that date. I put it in because the Act stated it would finish on the 31st July.

The poll results so far indicate that just over half of us have something restricted or something deemed to be restricted. To date that appears to be either:

A pistol of any kind or
A semi auto shotgun or
A semi auto rifle of any calibre.

It also seems that anyone with three or more firearms also has one of the above, leading some observers to conclude (incorrectly to my mind) that it's the quantity rather than (or as well as) the quality

Our man in Havana

A semi auto rifle of any calibre.

ORLY?

I has a semi auto rifle and got to 31/05.

I said: "to date that appears to be"

Not that stupid you know

But now of course it appears not to be, unless someone comes on and proves that it depends
