Help with thugs and the LAW


Recommended Posts

This kind of shit was one of the reasons I gave up shooting about 12 years ago. Too many bizzybodies/do gooders interfereing or reporting lawfull sporting activities. + copper waiting behind my car for over 2hrs at the entrance to a country lane when he saw a gunslip accross the front seat of the car, (something I always did to suggest to walkers that there was a man with a gun about}

 

Today I am more resilient, why should anyone get in the way of my lawfull persuance of my recently renewed involvement in shooting?

 

Cyclonebri; I'm sorry if you think what I've psted is "bizzybodie/do gooders",I can asure you I am mearly trying to pint out what can and can not be done in circumstances such as those in this thread, and what restrictions there may be in law. Like or loath the law, its (they are) there, and in order to not make a situation worse it can be worth having some idea of the relevant regs, particularly if it may be something that affects you on a regular basis.

 

Its good to hear that you have decided to take up the sports again.

 

 

Sporting age, apologies I didn't make my self clear, none of what I said was aimed at you, merely a comment of how difficult it is to remain within peoples conception of what it is legal to do with a gun let alone what can go wrong if you use the weapon as a threat.

 

Some people will turn the opposite way if they see a man with a gun, and some will file a report if you shoot within 400yds of their boundary etc. My example of the copper waiting for me to return to my car is a classic example of how lawful firearm users are viewed.

 

Again no offence intended at all :icon_redface::icon_redface::icon_redface:

A good example of how text can be, not so much mis-red but pecieved differently to how it was intended,

 

classic and all too common i'm sorry to say - its not easy to be a FAC holder and do right by everyone else!
