  1. I was thinking of joining dssn and engaging in the open category eventually but as I've been enjoying the range it would be initially for that purpose. I was told that the purchase of a weapon not on a jakt licence requires the potential owner to have visited their range a certain number of times in a particular time frame, perhaps I have misinterpreted the information. I wasn't particularly thinking of the ruger1022 but more about where the law stands on its ownership as I couldn't find it on the allowed weapons list in the link I supplied. I'm aware of the difference in accuracy between semi auto and bolt action however I don't consider it such a huge factor over the distance in mind.
  2. Hei. I hope someone may be able to offer advice relating to the purchase of a 22lr semi auto for jakt and competition shooting. I have been enjoying my time at the range with my 6.5x55 and have been thinking of purchasing a 22lr semi auto that allows me to both hunt and engage in competition. I have used the page https://lovdata.no/dokument/SF/forskrift/2011-09-09-930 and discovered that the Rossi mod 7022 Long Rifle and Savage A22 22Long rifle are approved for ownership in Norway in both the hunting and competition categories for semi automatic weapons. I am finding some difficulty in locating either of these for sale in Norway, is there any advice for me, both on these rifles as well as their aquisition? I am also interested to know if any other rifles exist that are lawful to own and use in both categories here in Norway (I'm more interested in wooden than synthetic stocks)? I have seen a large number of ruger10/22 for sale but cant see this model on either legal list, perhaps I'm missing some information regarding semi automatic ownership and Norwegian law? Is there any general advice regarding the purchase of this type of weapon especially as I'm an Englishman who has lived here for approximately 5 and a half years? I have jegerprøven and two kombis, I'm a member of DFS but do not have the required 16 visits inorder to purchase a semi auto on a competition ticket alone so my purchase would be on my jakt quota as I also want to hunt with it. Any help or advice is much appreciated. Thanks.
  3. Hi just got home from completing my jegerprøven exam in English. Really looking forward to eventually getting out with my own weapon here in Norway. Just wondering if anyone has tips or advice before I apply to the police. Cheers guys
  4. Cheers mate. I have the exam later in the month then I think I'll apply for a kombi once I'm through. Either that or a o/u and a rifle.
  5. Hi everyone, pleased to be here, I'm currently on my jegerprøven course and hope to get some good advice here in the future once I'm through the test. I'm from the UK and live in Eidsvoll kommune.
