tenbears10 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Not sure quite what you mean horizon? there is no licence you need to buy to shoot pigeons. You need a certificate to own a shot gun or a rifle. You need permission to shoot on land unless you own it. You do need to buy a licence to shoot game but pigeons are on a general licence because they are pests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invector Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 (edited) Horizon, go to WWW. BASC.org.uk and all will be revealed about the General Licence to shoot certain pest species. You don`t need to apply for the licence but must comply with it according to EU rules. Edited September 12, 2005 by invector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
