The Legal Terrain

The repercussions for weapons offences can be grave, particularly if a loaded firearm is involved during the commission of an offence, potentially resulting in lengthy periods of custody upon conviction. It is important to exercise a high degree of diligence when it comes to handling weapons by ensuring proper licenses for any weapon or firearm in your possession.
