relax , in N.Ireland there are stricter laws for airguns, all you need to do is get an FAC, which is easy if its only for an airgun. The sole purpose is simply to stop the terrorists getting weapons.

Thanks for the advice, i have spoken to the PSNI and am in the process of getting a FAC for my current rifle, BSA Lightning and my new one(Logun S-16). I bought it over the internet from a company based in England, about 3 years ago (i wasnt aware of the restrictions on airguns in N.Ireland at the time :*) )

I live in Northern Ireland and have been shooting airguns, mainly hunting for about 2 years. I have never had any problems with the strict airgun laws here, until now. Although Airguns are not easily bought inside N.Ireland, there were previously no import laws against buying them online, in England or in Scotland. But recently i have tried to buy a new rifle, an new Logun S-16 instead of my BSA lightning but i am told that import laws will not allow it anymore, and so internet sites will no longer ship to N.Ireland. Short of getting a full FAC from the PSNI, i dont seem to have any options. Any advice guys??
