Phantom 631 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yesterday, I had a council contractor round doing a survey, within an hour of him leaving I had the police round to inspect my guns The police left, happy with the fact that they are all legal and above board. Today I got a call from one of the Senior Housing Officers and it now Seems I may be made homeless soon, apparently I store offensive weapons. Under section 6.8 of the Council Tenancy Agreement "You must not keep any Firearm, Shotgun, Air Rifle or any other offensive weapon that could not be legally carried in public at the property, without our written permission to do so. Before granting this permission we will need to inspect yout gun licence". All my guns are sub 12 so I dont need a license for them and I am perfectly within the law if I carry my guns in public, if I have a lawfull reason to do so. For example if I am going to a range, taking them to the gun shop to sell or having purchased one and taking it home or carrying it to and from my permissions. Why are people so f*****g scared of people of guns? Looks like every one in council houses are going to be kicked out of their property, because a kitchen knife is an offensive weapon that you are not allowed legally to carry in public. I am so f*****g sick of the f*****g media induced paranoia of this f*****g f****d up country Tony 6 Quote Link to post

Never heard so much shit on my life, and I've spent most of my life growing up or living in council housing with an air rifle about the place in one shape or another.. What the hell is the world coming too.. Quote Link to post

Phantom 631 Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Thanks Gent's I already have argued that all my guns are legal and that under the law I am allowed to carry them in public and I dont need a safe or anything. I'm now about to start quoting the laws in an official written reply to them. It's just so much f*****g stress that I really do not need in my life at the moment. Bearinator, I'd be glad of his number I'll let you all know how it turns out. The Housing Officer said she will get back to me later next week. Tony Quote Link to post

Tron 173 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Stay strong Tony mate, this country is on the way to being run far worse than Russia was during the Cold war, the Members of Parliment and the police FORCE I cant say police service because they only look after their own interests at the end of the day, they and the goverment want rid of all kinds of guns, END OFF.Unless you are a rich family, a mp, or any other professional then they can and do ignore any rights you are suposed to have and treat you as if you are nothing, All the very best, Ron, and family.
