i had the same problem mate

 

sold mine and bought another which was already screw cut.

 

the cost was slightly less and much much quicker

you dont need to get it reproofed mate. only if you sell it on then you need to.

This debate still rages Jamie, not necessarily so any more, my last wasn't proofed and I sold it direct to a RFD.

 

The law is contentious and it largely comes down to what RFD will accept!
