So far, we have made little in the way of change in respect of the recording of Firearms/Shotguns that we receive from our main suppliers into the RFD register. We are fortunate I suppose, that the main items we stock in relation to Shotguns usually share the same marks on the three aspects of the gun. We now use two letter Country of Origin marks alongside the RFD entries for the guns that the receive as new or buy in. Admittedly, some of them we have agreed amongst ourselves and are fairly obvious, others we are starting to see embedded in the serial numbers of certain guns - Browning 525/Miroku for instance now have JP stamped within the first section of the S/N. Browning had warned us in advance of the changes, that they would be doing this. With reference to Firearms ammunition deliveries, we now record the batch number as part of the description field, in the 'Ammo In' section of our RFD Ammunition register. We have had no contact or direction from our Licensing Dept, the above was just our initial understanding and basic effort(s) to show awareness and compliance.

Remington 700 Short Action BDL Short Tactical Barrel stock, including all bottom metal, indexer and stock bolts - Taken off a brand new .223 rifle (the customer wanted it re-stocking in McMillan) Fits: Remington 700 right hand short action BDL with short tactical barrel contour. This stock features a full length aluminium bedding block and shorter for-end that is designed for barrels 22" in length or shorter. Comes standard with dual swivel studs on the for-end. In typical HS fashion, the CAD/CAM designed and CNC machined aircraft aluminium bedding block is full length, spanning from just aft of the tip all the way back to the pistol grip and slightly beyond. The stock is a true “drop-in” design and will readily take any Remington 700 BDL short action. Construction of the stock surrounding the bedding block is composite mix of woven Kevlar, fibreglass cloth, unidirectional carbon fibre and an epoxy based gel coat and laminating resin. The core of the stock is injection moulded with a fibreglass reinforced polyurethane structural foam. The stock is a departure from the heavy PSS stock (HS model PST12). Weighing in at only 40 ounces. HS precision did away with the palm swell in the pistol grip area, opting for a thinner and more sporting style grip. This grip fills the hand nicely without being overly thin. Sharpshooters will appreciate the shape of the grip. It has a good universal feel to it that will prove comfortable both in prone and in off hand shooting. Unlike the vertical grip stocks currently flooding the market, a standard style grip has ergonomics more suited for overall general use. £300 inc UK postage.

We have 2 x MTP Accuracy International Maverick 41 Dragbag/Rucksacks left. There are also 5 x Black versions of the same bag. The bag will take 110cm internal length/Firearm. Full zip outer section for Mags and Moderator etc Ideal for range days etc. Made by Karrimor SF for Accuracy International - they are MOLLE compatible. Well made with a comfortable carry system. Priced at £160 inc ParcelForce delivery.

Just to clear up a few ambiguities in the answers above: The National Firearms Licensing Management System (NFLMS) has several layers to it: Firearms, Shotguns, People and Land. Each cross reference to each other, so a licence holder has a nominal record, and tabs showing all licences held, firearms possessed (including historic records) land over which the holder has authority (or clubs for target shooters). Land can be searched by address or postcode, and each parcel of land has a tab showing the calibre deemed safe on the land if a check has been made. Land also is searchable for anybody who has or has ever had authority to shoot over it. A member of the firearms licensing department or anyone else trained on the system such as some command hub operators and supervisors can therefore check in a few seconds whether the land has been passed for a particular calibre. Historically FEOs had various criteria to determine whether the land was suitable for various calibres, but more and more these are seen as a bit of a nonsense, especially given the wide variety of calibres now in use. One Force with which I am familiar only distinguishes between Rimfire and Centrefire if asked to check land by a neighbouring Force. Other forces somehow claim to be able to determine different safety criteria for say centrefire .22 and .30 calibres. The local force I have referred to does not check land for its own applicants, simply because it grants open certificates on first application, stressing that the responsibility for safe shooting lies with the shooter, not the police. The payback is that they will not grant a calibre to any person who cannot demonstrate some form of experience with that or a similar calibre. So a quick phone call to the licensing dept in office hours will find whether the land has already had a check carried out if your conditions demand it. If it hasn't been checked, then you'll need to submit a letter of authority and a request to have the land checked. Legally, there is no need to notify the force that you have been given permission if the checks have already been done.

Here’s four back to back groups, 40 yards off s bipod on a bench, Rimfire Magic VQ 12.5. Each group is ten shots, the ones on the orange stickies were Winchester SuperX, the two tighter groups on their own were CCI hp subs. I’m impressed with the CCI. Think we charge 5.90 a box for the Winnie’s, and about a tenner a hundred for the CCI.
