FCP Notice re: Firearms Act roll out
Following advice from the Attorney General that Statutory Instruments giving effect to the firearms act amendments must apply to full sections of the Act and not to part sections, it is now the case that some of the planned roll out of the new firearms code will be delayed at least until the enactment of the Firearms Miscellaneous Bill which is due for publication on July 3rd under the Programme for Government. As a result, the intended classification of restricted firearms will not now be applied on May 1st 2008 as planned.

February Open in Rathdrum

Subject to final approval by the Gardai, the February Open is provisionally scheduled to take place on Sunday 11th February 2007. Due to the fact that this will be the first time a competition will be held on the new targets, this will be held as a test event.

In addition, since the date coincides with the international rugby match in Croke Park, the competition will be held in the morning and will be restricted to two details of 40 shots only. Priority will be given to club members and remaining places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. The details will commence at 09:00 and 10:30 and will run for 50 minutes each.

As this is a special event, no prizes will be awarded, but commemorative certificates will be presented to all those who attend. The entry fee will be €30 for seniors and €15 for juniors/students. Please email the contact link at the bottom of any page on the Rathdrum website http://homepage.eircom.net/~rrpc if you wish to be considered for a place on one of the details stating your preference in the form A for the 09:00 detail and B for the 10:30 detail. Final detail arrangements will be published on the Rathdrum website.

As this is still a provisional event, and as we may not know for certain until Saturday if this is going ahead, please check back here and on the Rathdrum website for further updates.

In the event that this cannot go ahead, another date will be set for this test event. The February Open proper will be held later in the month.
