Is amps Sharon Kilday readers action Lin change in Usa eur firearms regulations it iry Tatj to Gol some clarification on a Loconto change to Usa eur Rog Lalion 190-6, which covers the  Anil Possession of private firearms in Germany a the change now mandates that anyone who wishes to Purchase possess handle or transport Gunpowder both smokeless and Black must possess a  permit issued by the Gorman government. 1 he Usa eur office in Heidelberg that governs this regulation claims that the change was a mandated by the Gorman government in the new status of Boicos agreement. / my questions arise irom that answer. At a recent land Council meetings the  said they t did t know anything about such a change to the sofa and did not supped such a change a. Or. Casey irom the Kaiserslautern Rod and gun club a a a said that while doing Resovich tie had Lound that the. Change was Dii meted by  Provost marshal after a Soldier illegally sold hand loaded ammunition to a German National who was subsequently  by the. Ammunition a. A problem also arises from the tact that the permit required by the regulation s change is not available to most americans and is the wrong permit. Iho leu died permit is not for the Purchase or Possession of Gunpowder but lot ammunition to get the permit you must have resided in Germany Lor at least Thiee years. It would appear that Little planning or coordination was done before this change was issued. A More logical approach would have been Lor the association of Rex a Quot and gun clubs to establish a program based on the German program and to Issue certificates of a. Competency that would be required for the Purchase and Possession of Gunpowder a. Finally the regulation should make it allowable to hand Load ammunition  yourself and no one else. It could make the Sale or Transfer of hand loads illegal a John h. Wiles or. Pitburg a Germany Rae Lemmond action officer office of the chief of Public affairs he Usa eur and 7th army replies.

This was a translation error a Cloirec Tiosh has been initiated which substitutes the proper term explosives acquisition permit for the term presently used a a. \ a. The German explosives Law does state that a permit can be denied to a non German applicant or to an applicant who has not been a resident of Germany for. Thiee years however the strict application of the three year waiting period is a que to the German state old Rheinland Pfalz no such requirement is imposed in the state of Banfen Wurttemberge where the most recent Bod and gun club courses have been held. Since a powder permit issued in one state is recognized in All others you can avoid the waiting period by attending a Rod and gun club course in Heidelberg. A As o your allegation that there was no planning or coordination the  the regulation was properly staffed and coordinated publication of the change was delayed for 120 Days to allow the association of Rod and gun clubs to schedule classes for members to obtain. These permits the. First class was conducted in t. December 1990 and the next class is scheduled for May 1991 members May Contact their local Rod and gun club to obtain More information on these classes.
