    Airgun Licence !

    After expecting a refusal for my Airgun Licence I was amazed this morning to be told I will receive it within the next 7 days.

    Absolutely delighted is an understatement !

    The recent addition of a sensor to my pump has made a huge difference.
    Basically if my blood glucose drops below 4 an alarm goes of on my pump. Giving me a warning to get a drink or a snack.

    Been grounded for a month , back out tomorrow ☺

    Excellent news!

    They wanted me to have a pump fitted and I told them that I was not a central heating system.

    I will keep on the 5 jabs a day routine, works for me!

    When you apply for this new Scottish Airgun Licence do you need to cite a reason for ownership and a place where you will shoot, or is it more permissive?

    ...and congratulations, by the way!

    well done Tonka.



    Whipsaw.

    Yes you do need to give a reason why you want to hold them.

    Vermin control ,shooting club and collector are good enough reasons.

    Plinking in your garden is a possible depending on the size of land you have for a garden. Housing estate garden I would think would be a no.
