HARRIS Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 (edited) How can a 15 yr old who is the only one into shooting in his family go about getting a shotgun? I have been shooting with various family freinds who have been shooting for many years for about three years now so im not completely new to it. any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been looking at the basc young shot course what do you think? Many thanks HARRIS Edited November 8, 2009 by HARRIS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneshotkiller Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 You might get a better response in another section my friend Still while your here , i'm pretty certain you can not buy or be given a shottie at 15 , i'm not 100% sure but i would consider it similar to airrifle legislation . Also i think that would apply to you buying cartridges ! Is there no older family member you can turn to who might show a interest in your hobby and who might be interested in the sport B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HARRIS Posted November 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Im aware of the procedures and that i was just wondering wether the police would just automaticall refuse because im only 15 nearly 16 and no one in my family has anything to do with shooting and has never owned a firearm. And if I were to get a SGc would my dad need one aswell for me to get a shotgun and the ammunition? HARRIS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobyb525 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Thats fine but you will need to get one of those friends to buy you the gun and ammo and give them to you as you cant buy them untill your 17. You can have them but can't buy them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
