According to Derbyshire Police you don't have to be a R.F.D. to work on other people's air rifles. This is a quote from their website.
Notes with regard to Registered Firearms Dealers
The Firearms Acts 1968, subsequently amended by many other acts and secondary legislation control the possession and use of firearms, shotguns and air weapons. If you wish to sell or repair firearms, shotguns or sell air weapons by way of trade or business you must register with the police as a firearms dealer. If you simply repair air weapons as a business you do not need to become a dealer where the air weapon already belongs to someone (unless it is an FAC air rifle!).

That’s only true if you never buy and sell any guns yourself which basically means anyone who sells even a couple of guns a year and repairs airguns would need an RFD the penalties are so severe
Registration as a Firearms Dealer
• From the date on which the Rules take effect, only registered firearms dealers (RFDs) will be permitted to sell or transfer air weapons by way of trade or business. ‘Transfer’ includes letting on hire, giving, lending or parting with possession.
• Air weapons repairers will not be required to be RFDs but the complexity of the law about transfers of air weapons to individuals linked with the fact that most repairers sell at least a small number of air weapons means that most would be wise to become RFDs.
It also means if you receive a gun that’s over the limit which happens far too regularly or even have parts which would together become over the limit again you’re in a whole pile of trouble
The only time it’s really possible to repair guns without an RFD is if you are working say for a large shop and operate under their RFD
A man can always use more alcohol, tobacco and firearms.
In this case there is no need if you work on the guns at the shop in question (their registered premises on the RFD document). If you take guns away from their premises to work on them at any other premises (e.g. your home workshop) then you must be registered with the constabulary as an employee (used to be called "servant to an RFD") to transport the guns and that transfer must be recorded on the shop register (booked out) and booked in at the other RFD premises.
You may work on an FAC gun without holding an RFD cert if the FAC holding owner of the gun or the RFD who has the gun booked in is present while the work is taking place. It cannot be left unattended by the FAC holder or the RFD responsible for it at any time.
