Magazine capacity and Sport shooting permit requirements

Hello everyone, thanks for all the very informative content here.

I’m looking for some clarifications on the some "blurry " parts regarding the acquisition process for firearms. My question concerns two topics : 1. Semi-auto rifles and magazine capacity 2. Sport shooting exceptional permit

  1. From what I understand, if you want to acquire a semi-automatic rifle with a magazine capacity of 10 rounds or less, you do not need an exceptional cantonal permit. However, if you intend to buy a firearm with a magazine exceeding 10 rounds, then you do need this exceptional permit. What about the availability of those magazines. Do you just go to your local sport, with the adapted permit, and ask for a reduced magazine?

  2. I’m currently in the process of completing the paperwork for the exceptional permit, as I plan to purchase an old SIG 510 and an AKM. I also came across the sport shooting requirement, and this is where I need some clarification.

I have not practiced shooting outside of the military, but I have done a lot of shooting through my military service. I am not currently part of a shooting club, but I am in the process of joining one.

My question is:

When applying for the sport shooting permit, do you have to already provide proof of regular shooting practice at the time of application?

Or do you simply have to commit to regular shooting practice starting from the issuance of the permit, and then provide proof over time (e.g., attending at least 5 times over the next 5 years)?

I wanna make sure to get it right before throwing 50chf in the process potentially for nothing 🙃!

Thanks in advance!
