figgy Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) He will be spitting much worse when he finds out his sisters had his guns taken away by the police. When he gets his iPad and logs on here, chances are he will read about his missing guns if he don't find out before receiving the I pad.

moose man Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 Are the police actually holding his guns or are they with an RFD ..? Either way when he’s able to get about and use them , what’s stopping him from getting them back ? ....hopefully they may be the driving force that pushes him on to recovery ..

hawkeye Posted July 17, 2020 Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 latest news from Jackie.. Hi the visit went well with Martin todayhe was walking without anything to help him he is so happy , and of course I am also was great to see him xSpoke to chris today also regarding the firearms he said the family decided to tell police to store them rather than sell once I became martins next of kin , he said the police destroyed the loading equipment only as far as he knows.. They had no right to do that it has nothing to do with his certificates ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted July 17, 2020 Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 Claim time then, police shouldn't be destroying anything. If they didn't want to take and store them should have told family to make arrangements with other holders or rfd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to be an rfd to hold reloading gear for shotguns nothing is on ticket they did a similar thing with a lad from Billingham took his guns and reloading gear they even lost the keys to his 2 safes cost them a bomb when he was acquitted without even going to court.. they had to buy him new gun safes reloading machine the works.. They even took a sack full of coal dust that he had collected from the local beach stating it was gunpowder nearly wet myself laughing when he told me they were a bit red-faced when it was returned...

mel b3 Posted July 17, 2020 Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 It's fantastic to hear that he's up and about . I'm sure that when he's ready, the pw gang will be able to sort him out with a few suitable bits and bobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 Reading about the reloading stuff being destroyed im thinking "yea right" really believe that. Disgusting, the law making their own rules up, where do they get that carp from 🥵 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ph5172 Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 Was it destroyed or taken. it’s a big difference to be told 4th hand it’s been taken/destroyed/stored Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoolinDalton Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 You know what they say....where there's blame, there's a claim! I think that Martin will have a good case against the police if they've (actually) destroyed his gear! @ Hawkeye. Is Martin insured with BASC, etc, for his guns / equipment? If so, maybe BASC or whoever could either contact the police regarding the removal of his reloading equipment and find out what the score is, or advise on a claim for loss of said items.

ph5172 Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I think the main aim would be to get Martin home and sorted for independent living as a first priority. there are enough of us around to loan him some bits and bobs if he is well enough to get out shooting. I would be happy enough to loan him one of my guns until he got sorted or to caddy his stuff between stands and reload if required. I’m sure there are many more on here who will also.

dead eye alan Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 He will not be short of help from the PW community IF he accepts it. I have a gun he can have for free and I will get it to him if he wants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 From what i have been told the police came and removed his guns left no receipt or anything they also took his reloading gear.. As for that being destroyed that was what Jackie was told from Martins son Chris true or not i don't know.. After Jackie became his first contact the family told the police not to sell his guns but to store them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would not have the right to sell his guns . There surely would need to be due process before being allowed to destroy anything ..

saddler Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Met Martin a few times over the years when I was still up in the land of the Jockinese savages & was passing by on the way to visit civilisation...lost touch over the last couple of years or so with the house move taking place and some minor issues with the old house we left taking time to sort out, etc. Only just realised that he'd been taken ill and was having health issues THEN reading through the thread to see that the Police have been up to their typical antics in destroying private property that doesn't even need a licence to own!! I'll replace his missing shotshell reloading press(es) - may not be like for like - but I seem to recall that I bought one of his spare UK made Bowman presses; I have a couple more of these as well as a few spare US made units; must have around a dozen different models of shotshell press, so more than happy to put one or two aside for him - as well as a few hundred hulls, plus wads and primers, etc. He can sod off though if he thinks he's having any of my Nobel shotgun powders 😁 I can also likely sort him out with an air rifle if that appeals - got a few to choose from, have a weakness for classic (1970's-80's) springers Sad to read about him getting to come to terms with what has happened to him and shedding a few tears - can't be easy realising you support NUFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
