I paid £34.90 for 500

I should have written £76 for a 1000 Norma subs . I’ve only got 500 on my ticket . So my RFD pal is storing the other 500 until I’ve got room for them .

My “ticket “ is how  we refer to our firearms certificate and the conditions that are placed upon us . We all have an amount of ammunition that we allowed to buy / store . In my case I’m allowed to have 500 22lr . If I am found with more than this I’m in breach of my allowance and would potentially lose my firearm certificate. Each calibre of rifle I have has  a different quantity of rounds I can buy / have in my possession.

I am wondering if they can still limit ammunition because expanding rounds are no longer section 5?

Not sure mate

I’m not sure . All I know is I sent my certificate in for a variation recently and I asked to be able to have 1000 22lr and was refused, 500 is the maximum I’m allowed. I will try again next time . It’s just a pain now because my mate has to keep them until I’ve finished the first 500 .

           They haven’t been section 5 for a long time . I think the only reason the restrict the numbers you have is “ because they can “.

Strange how different license departments differ 

200 =243 

400=223

300= 17 

600= 22lr 

that’s what I’m allowed to hold

I put in for 600 of .22 and 17 and got it

I put in for 600 .22 and 600.17 and got them on my grant

So you’ve actually got to run out before you can buy another 500 brick?

You can walk out the shop then go back hour later and buy another 500 if you are that way inclined

I got a mate who is a gunsmith/ rfd to order them  from Edgar bros for me , as I couldn’t get hold of them , you can’t just get them from Edgar bros unless you have an account and none of my local gun shops stock them . The minimum he could order was 1000 , so I’ve paid him for them , but as I’ve only got room for 500 on my ticket he is looking after the other 500 . It’s a complete “arse and cake party “. But that’s the hoops I’ve had to jump through to get Norma subs .

You could , but if for some reason ( unlikely I know) the police got a search warrant for my house and found more than the 500 on my ticket I wouldn’t have a ticket. Gamekeepers do have their property’s searched now and then , particularly if there is a poisoned raptor found or firearms indiscretions. You can’t be too careful. I haven’t been searched but someone I know did , and they go through everything!!!!
