Currently firearm laws require any pistol to be a minimum length, which makes using them for legitimate sporting activities completely impractical. Our shooting sportsmen & women have to travel outside of the country to practice, which makes their training difficult & expensive. The current legislation should be changed to standard .22 pistols only to be used for target shooting sport purposes by any Firearms Certificate holder, not just a specially selected few, allowing all a chance to compete & practice to international standards.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":1,"created_at":"2011-08-04T20:52:13.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:26:30.683Z","rejected_at":"2017-06-21T12:32:52.666Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2011-08-04T20:52:13.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":null},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
