Inspections are conducted regularly and there is no discretion if the security requirements aren't followed; the shooter's licence is cancelled and firearms confiscated on the spot.There was an article in The Hun a week or so ago about the spate break ins occurring on farms and thefts of firearms from them. There was a suggestion in the article that many believe the crooks are getting inside info about properties and the types of guns stored there. One farmer found it very coincidental that he was robbed of his firearms shortly after a routine inspection. This is the type of stuff I am really concerned about.
As for people arming themselves, there's never been a safer time to live in Victoria and, as my defence tactics instructor was fond of saying, if you arm yourself, it's likely that the baddies will take your weapon and use it against you.
