gavaroo Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Hi Guys One of my friends dad (who was heavily into shooting) has recently died and she asked me to have a look at some of his shooting stuff and help her to sell it on. All of his guns are either in gunshops or are now sold. However, all of his reloading gear was still at the house. I was round there today but I'm not sure what I'm actually allowed to remove and sell as I don't make my own ammunition and it's all calibres that I don't have on my cert. I've got a firearms and shotgun cert but what am I allowed to take away; bullet heads, rifle cartridges, gun powder etc? There is also loads of die sets for different calibres and measuring kits and I don't have a clue what they are worth? He seems to have pretty much everything, even stuff for moulding his own bullets. Any advice is appreciated and please let me know if you want me to put up any specifics. Thanks, Gav.

Vince Green Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) You can take away everything but HP/SP bullets. They have to go back to police or RFD. Itemise everything else and sell it on here or ebay as for prices, well you will have to ask for bids.

inthedark Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Hi mate Just ring your F/A licensing dept, explain the circumstances and ask them for a temporary permit so you can move the ammo on and put the cash back into his estate. They'll grant you one unless they're total despots. Better than destroying it. Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavaroo Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Nice one guys. There's no made-up ammo there, think it has already been removed by the police or perhaps the gunshops that took the guns. I'll defo lift the rest of the stuff now that I know it's ok to. I'm hopefully meeting one of my mates tomorrow to see if he is after any of it but the rest of the stuff I'll post on here and will give you a heads-up before doing so. Cheers, Gav.

gavaroo Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Is there any special rules for posting any of the above if I do sell it. Particularly the bullet heads and primers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindeye Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 your have trouble getting rid of the heads as most have to be on your ticket hp/exp , and i am sure you cant post primers as they are classed as explosives , best sell them to local people as they can collect and sign the heads over to them everything else post on other sales with a price delivered , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
