ilovemyheckler Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 is it a legal requirement to take your shotgun licence when buying shotgun cartridges? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpentermark Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Yes. You're wrong! It is illegal for a seller to sell cartridges without seeing a certificate. It is perfectly 'legal' to buy without having yours with you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ST3V3 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 im sure i read somewhere about sendng non sgc holders to buy carts for you cant remember the details though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossy835 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 when you go to buy carts just take it with you, simples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovemyheckler Posted December 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 i did take it but they didn't ask to see it so I didn't offer it. It's the first time that I have ever bought cartridges. I just want to get my facts straight so that the shop doesn't make a mistake next time. I don't think that I have done anything wrong but it looks like the gunshop has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.I.A Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 One of my regular cart suppliers asks every time, they know me by name yet always ask Other shops never ask Always take your sgc with you though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theosmith Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 only had my licence for a month or so and have brought carts from 4xshops not 1 has asked for a sgc yet ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodit Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 only had my licence for a month or so and have brought carts from 4xshops not 1 has asked for a sgc yet ! And when I lived in Essex I was always asked even by shops that knew me and I had bought cartridges from recently. When I asked the reply was "legal requirement before we can sell you cartridges". Another made the point that although I had bought cartridges the month before and they had seen my certificate I could have lost it ie police taken it back or it could have run out So as said before always have your S.G.C with you Sodit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
