Under Section 108(1), beyond producing the license, what information may a police official request?

• A. State name, age, addresses, to produce license of said firearm and answer any question regarding the whereabouts of the firearm
• B. Date of birth only
• C. Passport details
• D. Employment history

Answer: (A)

This provision lets a police official do more than just ask you to produce the license. It authorizes asking identifying information to confirm who you are and that you’re linked to the license, such as your name, age, and address, and it also allows inquiring about where the firearm is currently kept or where it can be found. The goal is to verify accountability and ensure the firearm is under proper control while the license is in effect. A date of birth alone wouldn’t fully establish identity or linkage to the license, and passport details or employment history aren’t relevant to verifying license compliance or firearm location under this section.
