henry d Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Just a reminder to our members. Subject to the following restrictions you are permitted to shoot hares at night. "Night Game shooting England and Wales The use of firearms at night for shooting ground game is prohibited under section 6 of the Ground Game Act 1880 - night time is between the expiration of the first hour after sunset and the last hour before sunrise. Schedule 7 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 provides an exception for occupiers of land, or one other person authorised by them, to use firearms at night for the purpose of killing ground game if the occupier has the written authority of a person entitled to kill or take the ground game on that land, that is the holder of the shooting rights. Night Game shooting Sotland Section 50 and 50A of the Agriculture (Scotland) Act 1948, which also prohibited shooting at night, were also amended by Schedule 7 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, as follows 1 It is not unlawful for the owner of shooting rights on any land, or any person holding those rights from them, or the occupier to use a firearm for the purpose of killing ground game thereon at night. 2 The occupier of any land shall not use a firearm to kill or take ground game at night unless (except if they have exclusive rights) they have first obtained written authority of the other person or one of the other persons entitled to kill and take ground game on the land."

Stuu Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) banned from airgunbbs for this post. Didnt give me chance to remove the pictures. You would of thought the admins would have dealt with it instead of banning people. All jumping in at the usual ''YOU CANT SHOOT HARES AT NIGHT''.
