vengeance111 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I've got an airgun and I'm 15, in fact i got my first airgun when i was around 9, and i was allowed you use it without supervision in the woods around my house. To be honest I've never seen a copper any where near where I live so I don't really care if it's breaking some pointless law I also carry it along the road, without covering it and no one cares either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The days before everyone was deemed a criminal before they had actually committed a crime. A time when everyone was deemed innocent untill proven guilty. A time when folk had respect and honour instead of relying on big brother in a nanny state to supply the answers. Excellent U. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livefast123 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 You've got to love the naivety of youth :unsure: I grew up with freedom like that in rural Wales, walking along the street with my air rifle, shooting where ever it was safe and nobody batted an eyelid.......would I do it these days......not for all the tea in china. A conviction for a firearms offence will really screw your life up, doesn't matter whether the judge wants to lock you up or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demonwolf444 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Hell fella, good luck with your FAC application now. It doesnt matter how safely and legitimately you are using your gun you MUST keep with in the law. Okay yeh you think its fine, everyone knows you, noone calls the police, but what about the people who dont know you? or that car that took a wrong turning? Its not worth the risk! you'll find you will loose you hobby and quite possibly allot of money and even some time. Dont be stupid, i know "nanny state gone mad" but respect the law, not everyone is as understanding as the forums. Most of us actually enjoy shooting, and i'd like to enjoy it for a few more years. The law isnt pointless at all. It doesnt even need explaining just engage you brain Stick it in a slip. and get your mum or dad to take it up to your permission.. The scary thing is when you have a shotgun or a rifle is the law still pointless? if the answer to that is yes, i bloody hope they refuse you. dont be a D***head. sorry for the rant guys, hate to muddy the water but just my opinion.

vengeance111 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Most laws are completley pointless, just think of the ten commandments, and everything else is fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewj Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 some laws may seem completley pointless. im guessing you need to mature a little bit before you get your fac and learn to accept that you gotta live by them no matter if you deem them as being pointless or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFN Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Yup, have to agree with demonwolf444 and others, the law is the law whether you like it or not, and by ignoring it you not only put yourself at risk but also tar everyone else that enjoys shooting with the same brush.

Dekers Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Flippen 'ek. The law is the law, like it or not, (AND ON THE WHOLE I CERTAINLY DON'T), and any conviction/caution for anything gun related is bad. We all did lots of things in the "old days" that we can't do now (legally), get used to it and lets not argue about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
