Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 696 696. Nothing is easy in Germany
"This is the 3rd branch of the Hanover Shooting Club of the Lower Saxony and Bremen Shooting Federation. This is the hall, and the shooting range is behind it. It must be no problem to practice shooting." The blond man pointed to the rows of guns on the wall and asked the three of them. , "Have you shot (a gun) before?"

The three shook their heads together.

"Then let me introduce myself first," the blond man straightened his body like a tall green pine, pointing to some old-looking portraits on the other wall and said proudly, "I'm Hoffmando Bu, a former member of the German national shooting team, won the European shooting champion of different projects, the German national champion and the shooting champion of Lower Saxony before retiring. He is currently working in DSB, the largest shooting league in Germany, and also serves as the club's shooting coach .”

Dong Qiangqiang and the others looked towards the wall in the direction of his finger, and saw a black and white photo of a young man holding a certificate in his left hand and a trophy in his right, showing a young and shy smile.Above the man's head is a banner: Lower Saxony 25-meter pistol shooting champion.

The three of them immediately stood in awe, and said in unison: "Hi, Champion."

Hoffman's address to the three seemed extremely useful, and he grinned and said, "What is the purpose of your application for a gun license? To participate in a shooting competition or something else?"

"We want to join the hunter club and then participate in legal hunting activities." Dong Qiangqiang replied generously.

"Hunting? Well, in addition to obeying the rules on the use of weapons, you must also abide by the hunting laws." Hoffman reminded slowly.

"Yes, so we came to you first to learn how to obtain a gun license." Dong Qiangqiang explained.

Hoffman nodded: "I can tell you clearly that although you are foreigners, as long as you comply with the provisions of the German Weapons Act, you can apply for gun-related documents. There is no doubt about it. Before you can have a gun license, you have to get a gun license."

"Isn't a gun license the same as a gun license?" Dong Qiangqiang didn't explain the difference to Lei Lanting before, so he was confused and hurriedly asked.

Hoffman shook his head and said: "The gun license only means that you can own a gun, but it doesn't mean that you can carry and use it anytime and anywhere. In Germany, these are two different things."

"Then you can (carry a gun at any time) if you have a gun license?" Lei Lanting seemed to understand.

"Don't worry, young man, you'll understand after listening to me." Hoffman seemed very patient, as if he was familiar with impatient consumers. First of all, the person must be over 18 years old, and secondly, he must join a shooting federation in a region before applying. It is more complicated for individuals to directly join the federation in terms of procedures and procedures, so generally the applicant joins the shooting federation that belongs to the federation first. The third is that he must complete regular training tasks in the club, that is, at least one year of regular live ammunition shooting courses. The fourth is that the applicant must pass the written part of the basic knowledge of weapons examination. Finally, the applicant needs to submit A police certificate."

"Does it take at least one year of live ammunition training to get a certificate?" Hans didn't tell Dong Qiangqiang about this requirement before, and he was a little surprised, "I mean, do you have to practice for so long under the premise that other conditions are met? "

"Yes, and if you want to buy a 9mm semi-automatic pistol in the future, then during this year's training time, you must complete the prescribed number of 9mm semi-automatic pistol shooting training in the club. If you want to buy a 9mm semi-automatic pistol but go Practice other guns such as air guns, even if you practice for a year, you can’t buy semi-automatic pistols but only air guns in the end. The club will issue corresponding shooting certification documents based on your live ammunition practice content. The certification documents are the same as those written on your gun ownership certificate. The guns must match exactly, so you can’t train blindly.”

"How many hours of shooting in a year is considered regular training?" Lao Bai asked, staring at the exquisite pistols on the counter.

"Generally speaking, you should train at least once a month, and each time should be at least one hour. In this way, you can apply for a gun license if you train for 12 consecutive months, that is, you have trained at least 12 times. In the case of training, the applicant will have to train 12 times before submitting the application.”

"One year's training is too long." Lei Lanting complained in Chinese in a low voice, "It's much longer than learning to drive, and it's been as long as old Dong's preparatory course."

Dong Qiangqiang felt that the training time was really long after listening to it, but when he thought about the time requirements of German coaches for learning traffic regulations when he was learning to drive, he immediately understood: Germans after World War II are extremely concerned about everything related to human (and animal) life. Be cautious, just imagine, if a person does not have enough patience and perseverance to complete shooting training and has a gun in his hand, it will be a huge hidden danger to the whole society.

Although Hoffman couldn't understand Chinese, he could tell from Lei Lanting's bitter face that he was complaining.He smiled and continued to explain: "After joining the club, in addition to completing the prescribed number of shooting training, members also have to learn the basic knowledge of weapons and the laws and regulations on the use of weapons within a year, such as the basic principles of various firearms. , primary ballistic knowledge, how to safely operate firearms, and the strictly prohibited behavior of using guns, etc. In addition, during the training process of members, the club will also closely understand and observe whether members can communicate with others without barriers, whether they have good health Personality, whether there is any anti-social tendency, whether there is any tendency to violence, etc. These are all matters that need to be indicated in the final certification document.”

"If," Dong Qiangqiang suddenly thought of a practical problem, "I become a member of the club and train here regularly, but due to various reasons, such as work or study, I want to change to another city, then my training will be banned. How can I continue to train in this situation?"

"Our club's upper-level shooting federation has many brother clubs in Germany and even the European Union. If you change to other cities in Germany or other European countries, just tell us the city where you live, and you can transfer your membership. There is no problem at all. Hoffman said easily, "In addition, there are three types of gun licenses: red, yellow, and green. Among them, red is for weapon collectors, yellow is for shooting sportsmen, and green is for hunters. Different colors You don’t understand that gun ownership licenses correspond to different guns, but I will tell you when you apply in the future.”

Hoffman's enthusiastic and detailed answers completely dispelled Dong Qiangqiang's worries. Although he still couldn't understand something for a while, Hoffman gave him a trustworthy feeling.Following Lei Lanting's question just now, he continued to ask: "Then after getting a gun license, do I have to go through another year of theoretical study and live ammunition shooting before I can upgrade to a gun license?"

"Gun licenses are further divided into large gun licenses and small gun licenses. It is difficult for ordinary people to apply for a large gun license even if they have a gun license. Flare guns with flare function, prop guns that emit stimulating gas, and small guns in the concept of ordinary firearms. But even if you have a small gun license, according to the "Weapon Law", you cannot bring weapons to the public place, and even if you bring it, it is forbidden to use it unless your life is seriously threatened. In addition, if you buy guns and ammunition in the future, the two must be stored separately and ensure that they will not be touched by a second person other than you , nor parents, spouses and children."

"Hey, this is too troublesome, right?" Lei Lanting muttered, "This is not allowed, and that is not allowed. Getting a gun license is tantamount to getting it for nothing. Are you two still planning to take the test?"
