I thought so too, but it seems that we're wrong. Never mind.

 

Have either of you two actually PMd your suggestion to any of the Moderators? :rolleyes:

 

Or have just just hoped that one of them might read this thread and action your request! :lol:

I am somewhat concerned by the new guidance notes.

 

1.10. What happens to the firearms in the event of the death of

the owner?
In the event of the death of a certificate holder the person inheriting the effects must surrender
or declare the weapons to the police or a registered firearms dealer. Failure to do so would
result in the inheritor being in breach of the law by having the firearms in their possession; it is
the responsibility of the inheritor to find out whether firearms are part of the deceased effects.
Registered firearms dealers will be able to advise on the value of the items and how best to
proceed in accordance with the inheritor’s wishes. Options include applying for a firearms licence,
selling/transferring the firearm (to a museum or collector) or destroying it.

 

NO mention of section 7 wrongly making people think they should hand them over to the police... :no::no::no:

 

And I only got as far as page 3...

If you find any mistakes, let them know :good:

 

It is now an online document and is regularly updated.

They do listen and they do make changes.
