Mikaveli Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Er, if that can actually fire a cartridge, you realise it's a prohibited weapon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRNDL Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Er, if that can actually fire a cartridge, you realise it's a prohibited weapon... Even if its registered and on his cert and locked away in a sgc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeus Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I was under the assumption hand guns are illegal? This could however just be a replica.....either way nice display of craftsmanship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byjovecarruthers Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 If that's capable of discharging any missile or shot someone's looking at 5 years in the big house! It can't be registered on certificate as it is a homemade handgun. I understood that the only hand guns that could be held under UK firearms law are humane dispatch pistols and have to be limited to only hold 2 rounds and should be a specific calibre. That's assuming this is in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's assuming this is in the UK. That would be incorrect. You can hold them on section 7 permit for historic guns i believe, and there is no law saying they have to be limited to 2 rounds. And you can register home made guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lees Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 He does say at the end of the video that it doesn't fire anything, so I guess it's a solid barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
four-wheel-drive Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 That is some nice work there he said that it was non firing that could be for lots of reasons I used to have a couple of rf .32 revolvers quite legal to have and the springs required to work the hammers was much stronger that the ones he used also he did not say what caliber it was if it was not .22 then he could not get ammunition for it so people bothering about if it is legal just take his word for it it is ok.

Scully Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 (edited) Very nice.Here's mine: Obviously it isn't home made! It is the last of my revolvers;unfortunately all others have been sold over the years. Edited August 9, 2013 by Scully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
