Waffen; Beantragung eines Voreintrags bei vorhandener Waffenbesitzkarte für Schießsportverein

If your shooting club already has a gun ownership card and you wish to purchase additional firearms for the club that require a permit in addition to the firearms registered there, you will need a permit to do so. The permit is issued by the competent authority by means of an entry in the gun ownership card (pre-entry). With the pre-entry, you have one year to acquire the registered firearm requiring a permit.

In the application for a permit for the further purchase of a firearm, you only need to state what type of firearm and caliber you wish to purchase. Further details, such as the manufacturer and exact model, are not initially required. You only have to provide this information once you have acquired the weapon and have fulfilled your obligation to notify the competent authority of the acquisition of the weapon. The gun dealer must also report the transfer of the weapon to you.

You must prove that you can safely store the weapon you wish to purchase.

• Identity card or passport (copy)
