nighteye Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Please correct me if I'm wrong but I would be breaking the law if I TOLD my wife where the spare keys are kept , on the other hand if she FOUND them whilst tidying the house I would still be on the right side of the law ? Before anybody jumps on this or me for that matter , my keys are kept with the club keys in a safe to which nobody knows the combination but me !

Marksman1997 Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I have the Dial lock so no keys needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenlivet Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) Absolutely not! Both excellent, but the Cragganmore was the slightly more excellenter of the two. Out of interest, does your user-name indicate a connection or just an appreciation of the product? An "occasional" appreciation 😉😉 On another forum Glenlivet wasn't available so I became Talisker......

aldivalloch Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 An "occasional" appreciation On another forum Glenlivet wasn't available so I became Talisker...... Just curious, as my late father was born and brought up in Glenlivet. As a young man he worked at the distillery, and also at the distillery farm at Minmore. Very beautiful area.

rogcal Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) The most obvious answer to the dilemma of your nearest and dearest being able to finding the keys when you shuffle off is to get in touch with your local Spiritualist Church or Medium and get them to ask you where you put them!

Highlands and Islands extremely beautiful, if the cloud lifts long enough to see the views. Hence the invention of single malt :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazzab Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 On the advice of my FEO my keys are kept in a key safe (like old folk have outside) Only I know the code. I'll be dead so souldnt care less hahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowchaser Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 I would assume that most shotguns/firearms will be willed to someone else you know who shoots either a friend or relative. If they have the correct licences they should be able to just put them on there. Getting into the safe/cabinet is another matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 I had the same talk with the FEO that came to our gun club regarding our section 11 certificate She said that whilst its wrong, they would rather the wife/husband/partner should know the location of the cabinet keys, it would make everyone's life easier if they knew where they were when the licence holder popped their clogs, I live on my own and as been said many times above that it doesn't matter because you're dead, it just takes away the stress of those left behind of trying to sort the guns out. I suspect that many partners do know the location but don't admit it? If the partners are women, of course they know......... They check to see if we keep porn and presents in there. They will never admit it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was shown how to open those with a set of feeler gauges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kory1986 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I keep my cabinet keys in one of those key safe that you put outside your front door for house keys obviously it's not outside the door it's hiding away in one of my draws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyska Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Easy to say 😟 And if you had a pair of purdys and lived in a area where the licencing authority policy is destruction of unlicensed weapons ? They are unlicensed the moment you fall of your perch Would you think the same or make provision Maybe lodging a set of keys with your local freindly Rfd Just a thought Of I have a letter in my cabinet stating on my demise that my wife doesn't sell the guns for what I said I paid for them, truefully.

welshwarrior Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 My will states where the keys are and my wishes for my guns, police can't destroy them they are someone's property all they can do is issue a section 7 certificate and insure safe storage is arranged.

bear406 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 When a old family friend passed who ran the local rifle club the police had his safes open on the same day. As for mine my mate is a RFD and I've asked him to get the rifles and shotguns out the day I go pop bang wizz. Bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sha Bu Le Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) My other half has everything on her certificate too so she can know where the keys are. Unfortunately she isnt interested in rifles though so if i go down the fac route i may need a second Join the Mormons...............and if you can handle 3 or 4 wives then rock on Holy moly I'm having problems with one. She's only 5'0" Edited February 26, 2016 by Sha Bu Le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keg Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Wife and I both shoot so keys not an issue, but if we both failed to return from holiday they would have mega issues getting in my cabinet as I use a Grade 5 free standing safe . the wall thickness is 210 mm. Assume you built it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
