sid the sniper Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Can you just buy these guns with an ordinary sgc or do you have to apply seperately also do you have to apply for a 10 bore or just ordinary sgc. Also do you have to apply for each shotgun as some people on here have about 10 or do you just put them on the same slot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 1 - Yes can be bought on a standard 2 + 1 capacity SGC 2- Ordinary SGC covers for all bores 3- One licence covers all the shotguns you want to own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullbore Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 A shotgun certificate covers you for as many shotguns as you want, including 3.5 inch magnums (proper guns) the only time you need fac for shotguns is higher cartrideg capacity, or FAC ammunition, slug etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sid the sniper Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 do you have to ask the fao everytime you want to buy another gun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Nope the RFD you buy the gun from fills in your licence you then notify your Firearms head office you have purchased a new gun and give them the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinhood69 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 My firearms liason chapy tells me i can have a shotgun with a 2 inch diameter barrel!!! what bore would that be? RH bet that would hurt after 75 carts!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notsosureshot Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Hmm 2 inch calibre would be "A" bore I think and its not really designed to be fired from the shoulder. Its whats known as a punt gun. Shooting this would result in an ear drum vaporising bang, followed by several hours in a daze trying to find the parts of your arm and shoulder which were catapulted into the next field. Anything larger than 4 bore, expensive in itself, is even more expensive and they really are quite a rarity. A 4 bore is approximately 1 inch, firing one can be likened to firing an express train. So imagine what a 2 inch gun would feel like, hmm. Bore sizes for practical use, including shooting elephants...: 4, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 67.5 (better known as .410) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
