Firearms Owners’ Fora

The Firearms Service Delivery Unit (FSD) in the Department of Justice is responsible for policy and implementation of the Firearms Act 1925-2023. FSD is also responsible for the registration of firearms dealers, the provision of import licences for firearms and ammunition and the provision of export licences for firearms and ammunition in the EU.

FSD has recently completed a very successful series of meetings with registered firearms dealers and now wishes to continue that engagement with the wider firearms community, namely, the firearms owners. This will provide the opportunity to brief firearms owners on some new developments in firearms legislation in Europe, and for FSD to learn about the challenges of firearms ownership from those experiencing them.

FSD appreciates that given the numbers of firearms owners it will be difficult to engage with all owners but additional meetings will be considered if deemed necessary.

FSD is, therefore, pleased to announce that they will be holding two Firearms Owners’ Fora in Mullingar Park Hotel, Dublin Road, Mullingar, Co Westmeath, N91 A4EP on Thursday, 19th June 2025.

The first will commence at 3 p.m. and the second at 6 p.m. Registration for attendance at these meetings will be on a first come, first served basis.

To book a place click on the Register Now button which will take you to the online booking page. The booking form will request some information regarding your specific shooting interests. This is to ensure a better focus on the discussions.

Following registration to attend the event, attendees are invited to email any questions or queries they would like to hear addressed at the meeting to Firearms@justice.ie – please put “Firearms Owners’ Forum” in the subject line of your email.
