spud gun 16 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 thats what i might do after a while, i have always wanted a f.a.c, there is a tuning kit for it. i think its £15 and it bumps it up to 45ft so its alot. would that give a f.a.c to a 14 year old Quote Link to post
jazz_11 5 Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 i know the shot gun certificate can be given to literally any age but its not that easy to get it when your young the best bet would be to get your father to apply first aswell as yourself. iit makes things a bit more complicated like you cannot just go and shoot the land need to be police approved which makes finding permission slightly harder aswell. im not sure about the age with Fac but im sure someone can help you though mate nice looking gun by the way all the best with it.

I hope this helps you some? Regards, Grim. Quote Link to post
Coney 3 Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 A real nice piece of kit you have there....you will have to let us know how you get on with it ( after Christmas of course ) Good luck Coney. Quote Link to post
jazz_11 5 Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 thanks grim that is well worth knowing... is it true all the land is police approved i assume they do this when you attatch the details of the farm when you apply. what happens if you get more permission and also what is it called which you can get where you can make your own judgements about land and therefor does not need to be police approved anymore? i hope i got it right thanks jazz Quote Link to post

jazz_11 5 Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 i agree mate you have to crawl before you walk. some say that a fac air rifle is pointless aswell because you may aswell get a rimfire as a air rifle tests your field craft whereas its easier with a rimy. i wouldnt mind going for my fac but will have a hard think about it first. cheers jazz p.s thanks grim once again.
