_Spud_ Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hey all, Myself and my friend who do a lot of shooting together have finally managed to acquire all of the farmers information for our FAC. The land owner has told us that he already has one Pearson who can shoot on the land with a FAC rifle, and he thinks the limit on the land is two people who can have permission to shoot. The farmer is quite happy to let us have the 22LR on his land, he does not have a problem with both of us shooting so the two person issue is not a problem with him, he said it is a legal thing. Is anyone aware of this or have I missed a section in the long form from the police about firearms applications. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codling99 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 dont think there is any truth in this,your best bet is to phone police and ask,cant go wrong then. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob300w Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 There are no limits on the number of guns on any farmland, one local farm has at least a dozen, probably more, firearm users on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browning GTS Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Yes no limit as far as i know i am the only one with a fac on one permission, but on another one i think there are a least 5 others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabefisher Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 i'll echo what others have said, our farm has about 4 or 5 people on it. Do the police actually have a record of pieces of land, and who's FACs are registered on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdboy Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 In short yes, the police will also have a record of what calibre is allowed on the land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Spud_ Posted August 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Thanks all. One last question, if I go for an FAC shotgun can I only use it on the land that has been approved or can I use it anywhere I still use my normal 3 shot shotgun.
