humperdingle Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Is it not much easier to get a .410 shotgun on SGC? I reckon .410 pistols are mostly used for humane despatch, or in confined spaces at a push, and will require a sect 5 (I think :blink: ) licence. Much harder to get hold of.

apache Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 From the police firearms guidance: Section 4 of the 1997 Act allows the possession and use of shot pistols in calibres .410 and 9mm rimfire, provided that such a pistol is “subject to a condition that it is only for use in connection with the shooting of vermin” (see Appendix 3 for the exact wording of the condition which covers these circumstances). This exemption was intended mainly for pest controllers who may need to use a firearm of this kind in farm buildings, farmyards and similar areas where use of a conventional shot gun would be inappropriate, for example fruit cages or near release pens.

The Duncan Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Not when air rifle, .410 gun or tbh a sack and a hammer, would be more approriate. Then, once you've shot all the tame ones that volunteer to sit and wait at a handy 3 metres and wait patiently for the BANG!, you could maybe hit them at 5 or 6 metres, even 30m with an air rifle and make almost no noise. Cheaper slugs too. Duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisherman Mike Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 WHY TELL MY WHY If you cant work that out for yourself I suspect the Firearms Liason Officer is not going to credit you with sufficient intelligence to sanction your permit. First we have members wanting to shoot on remembrance sunday in ear shot of a memorial service then one who wants to know which calibre air rifle to use on a fox then those who want to buy wheat to entice pigeons into feild then someone who wanted to decoy and shoot them on pasture...and now..... God help us... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
