Had a call from my liaison officer today, well the head of my firearms unit I believe. Sound feller, know him for years. Anyway he asked if I'm on here! Then informed me that police intellig

dont leave by law you are allowed too shoot lead balls from your muzzle loader on a target range there is lots of ranges  that have this   as the muzzle loader is not loaded till on the range  the powder shot &  wads are classed as components

There is a National Firearms Database, should have been in existance from about 2000, but was around 5 years late and eventually emerged around 2005 (or was it 2007) from memory.

Add to that all the pictures he has posted of himself, the number of people who call various members by their real names rather than their THL Username and it would take anyone with the means 5 minutes to find out who he is!

TBH, thinking about it since, they might not even have needed the PNC. Photo from here, emailed to local Firearms Dept, do you know this guy? As his local FEO knows him well, it's a no brainer he'd be recognised. Obviously if his real name is on here, then it's even easier.

I also think there needs to be a note of caution here for Nate. I was very much left with the impression that he might continue in whatever behaviour is alleged without posting anything online. The danger here is this getting caught is no more than a video camera or pair of binoculars away. If they don't know where he shoots, they only have to ask around or obtain his phones GPS history if they can get a warrant. A simple watch or record, then stop is all it takes. They're going to be watching him now. If not now, then it might be 6 months or a year down the line. The best way forward in my opinion is to stay within the law. Cease all single shot shooting (if that's what he's being doing). Call a professional expert body to establish the law. If it comes out on the side of the local force, comply and if you want to shoot single ball (?), apply for an FAC and desist until you obtain it. If the opinion comes out against the local force, then let the body and force negotiate a solid position either amicably or through the Courts, that permits it's use, before resuming. Won't you don't want to do is potentially break the law in the meantime. That can only end badly even if you ultimately were found not to have committed offences....

I think there are several issues here that aren't as described. Police Intelligence is an oxymoron. They can't be bothered to keep tabs on real criminals so I doubt that they would be involved in tracking Underdog. I think the FLO has probably meant to have a quiet word of advice, but has mentioned things that might or might not be true and this has given an incorrect impression of the situation.  Just take it as a quiet word of advice. If they had any evidence they would have seized all weapons and ammo.

I've said this before to you and I'll repeat it again; please don't leave as your contributions are valued. :thumbs:

Look you have passed the gate, you have  a 'shotgun' condition on your FAC/SGC and you have openly stated here the you are shooting ball in it, so OH DEAR  you have over stepped the rules!

Who cares? NOT ME but there are a lot of 'knobbers' out there who do/might (i.e. like; people who ask "what should I do with .22 rimfire round that has miss fired, should I pass it to a RFD for disposal?'

GET A LIFE just chuck it in the brambles, OH NO WHAT ARE YOU THINKING its a DEADLY prohibited THING!) Really???

Beware when there are 'those' out there, and of aware of pathetic knob-ends who are probably 6 months into shooting sports and want to tell you what too do??
