Questione giuridica chiave
Which authority is competent to decide an application for a weapons-carry permit in an inter-cantonal situation?
Decisione estratta
The authority at the applicant’s place of residence is competent, even where the permit is sought for use in another canton.
Motivazione estratta
The residence principle applies by analogy from the weapons-acquisition rules and is supported by the cantonal practice and § 20(2), which requires a recommendation from the local municipal authority. Residence authorities are best placed to assess the permit requirements.
