robwelsh 354 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I thought it was legal for you to use a shotgun etc on permission if you were in the company of a fac holder? Quote Link to post
ArchieHood 3,692 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I thought it was legal for you to use a shotgun etc on permission if you were in the company of a fac holder? BASC - Shotgun Code of Practice. "You may only lend a shotgun to someone without a certificate if you are with that person, on land of which you are legally the occupier OR if you are at a clay pigeon shoot where the chief constable has granted special permission to allow non-certificate holders to shoot." 1 Quote Link to post
