I dont intend to do a huge amount of hunting, I just wanted to make sure that I could take it over without problem and I would be loathe to sell it (Pro Sport). We are in a quiet area with just a French farmer for a neighbour so I cant see it being a problem if we knock off a few rats in the barns if needs be. I shall stock up with some pellets before I leave. It seems to be much easier to get a rifle / shotgun over there than here...?

Coypu Hunter :- I am moving to France this month and was wondering about Air Rifles and saw your post. Am I correct in saying that my rifles (sub 12 ft/llbs) will be OK to take to France? Will I have to register / declare them anywhere (Marie etc) or am I ok to use them on my land without any problem (no game though..?) Is it possible to buy Air Rifles / pellets in France without problem? If I buy one in the UK, is it fairly pain-free to take it across on the ferry?
