    annoying friend +gun law

    i got into an argument with a friend (the sort that likes to think he knows everything) over gun laws ie wot i can and cant do .

    was wondering if there was a site that lists every gun law and maybe insurance details that i can print out to shut him up?

    thanks

    This is a good place to start.

    mainly how i couldent leave my house with my gun unless it was in a padlocked stainless steal box.

    how i wouldent get insurance for guns as he says they are to dangerous.

    that i wouldent stand a chance of an fac cos i am a drinker .drink 1 night in every 3 months .

    and the 1 i found most funny is how rabbits are on the endangerd list and i would go to jail for shooting them..

    normally i enjoy explaining gun laws to my mates but with him comeing out with rubbish like that i gave up .

    Could I just correct your mate on one thing...perhaps he should be locked securely in a steel box

    God...I hope he's not right about that....I have been breaking the law for years.

    Just get him to look at the DEFRA site, re rabbits status and the pest control act...the magic word is pest. Thats P.E.S.T

    Thats some mate you got, Is he a wind up merchant? I hope so for your sake

    I always offer anti's (although your mate may not be an anti anyway, but its good for a laugh) a challenge. I suggets they protest by not consuming anything that has involved any form of pest control in its production...could be dead within days!...rules out food and drink (including water...most resevoirs have to control pests)...possibly even clothing

    Have fun and thanks for the entertainment

    Tell him you have become deeply concerned over what he's told you. Tell him you are considering sueing whoever sold you the rifle, Ask him to provide some authoritive reference material to help your case. Remind him often.
