Montey Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 I've just watched Field sports Britain this weeks edition on YouTube on the news there was a piece on three female MPs who wanted to bring in a ban on air rifles for under 18 year olds this I knew had happened what I didn't know was as part of this out rage and attack on the shooting community There were also proposals to restrict home loading. Seems some people in parliament are trying to bring restrictions on a law-abiding shooting community without consulting stakeholders or looking for evidence lead proposals.

Cheers Bruce I must mis-understanding something? Presumably after reloading they have created a round that would require a FAC for legal possession. So how can a non FAC holder reload ?

Re-Pete Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 The same way a non-FAC holder can get a handgun, primers, and anything else needed to make a loud bang and send a lump of lead on it's way.....................illegally.

Montey Posted September 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 I wasn't aware of the exact proposal thanks for clarification It would be hard to argue against I gues given that no one can lawfully reload a round they aren't legally able to have. The other piece of legislation seemed to require an FAC to buy and hold shot gun shells at least that's the way it was reported which would be ludicrous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-Pete Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 Sorry Chanonry, I should have put "ie" in front of the word "illegally" at the end of my post..........it's an abbreviation of the Latin phrase "id est" which roughly translates as "that is" or "in other words"......
