You can’t just tell the cops “no but seriously, I’ve been practicing with an air gun in my backyard, trust me bro”.

Obviously, but you conveniently didn't quote the part where I said you need a signed proof from a licensed weapons trainer.

But really, can you find me a single one who’d certify you without having been a part of the association? In the current climate? Seriously?

I can. Multiple even, a phone call away. But in here you just of course have to 'trust me bro', I'm not going to prove that just for the sake of random conversation over the internet.

Good luck getting a pistol for execution as a farmer without being a hunter. Regards, someone who was born in a village of hunters and farmers.

I know several. Coming from someone currently living in a village of hunters and farmers. Obviously many of them are hobbyist hunters as well, but you don't get a permit for 9mm pistol for duck hunting.

I’m getting more and more doubtful that you actually have a license for any sort of firearm.

I don't care. The law, and my very real world experience, says that you don't need to be a part of any association or club to get a permit regardless of the weapon type, as long as you otherwise qualify to have one.
