Shotgun with 2 sets of barrels


Recommended Posts

 

Hi guys I've just been to a local gun shop and he has a shotgun for sale with two sets of barrels. He said that if I bought it I wouldn't have to put the spare set on my ticket. Is that right as I thought any pressure bearing part had to go on ticket. Any way turns out price was wrong on ticket as its a commission sale the guy whose gun it is decided to double the price so I just walked away. thanks

I have a couple of guns with more than one set of barrels only the actions are listed not the spare barrels. Cheshire had them all listed when I moved to surrey they removed them TVP again said no need to list the Hampshire then re added them this move Staffs removed them again.

 

Don't get worked up about it and just go with what your force want.

By the looks of the law if you are acting by way of business or trade component parts of a shotgun are classed as a shotgun

So would go on a certificate,

However if not by way of business or trade component parts are not classed as a shotgun!!!

 

For the purposes only of sections 3(1) and 45(2) of the 1968 Act, and in the definition of

‘firearms dealer’ in section 57(4), the term ‘shotgun’ also includes any component part of
a shotgun and any accessory to a shotgun designed or adapted to diminish the noise or
flash caused by firing the gun.
Section 3(1) is about buying and selling (Business or trade)
Section 45(2) is importation
For the purposes of all other sections/Acts, a component
part of a shotgun is not a shotgun (see section 57(1) of the 1968 Act).
