Anyone got vic gun license lately?

[Jack91]

Hi all.
In order to progress an application, i need to join a club (fga) and book into do a longarm course. Seems like a lot of paperwork and the usual runaround too as would expect. Ive got 2 charges from 6-7 years ago. Im imagining these checks will find that pretty quick. Is there a way i can find out if im wasting my time and money if im going to get knocked back anyway?
Edit-just had a look, charges were 7 years and a month ago
