Could this be used against police unware of the complete laws to get me out of trouble, or would they still need to arrest me?
I believe it is different in Wales. Was, anyway, a few years ago. I think sparrows and starlings were allowed. Mick.

the general licence as i understand it is a code to adhere to rather than something you have to apply for, also i think the semi auti issue applies to shotguns held on a shotgun certificate as opposed to a section one firearms certificate, A shotgun held on a shotgun certificate can only have capacity for two rounds in the mag and one round in the breech I think, wheras a shotgun held on a section one may exceed this capacity, as far as I am aware, hope that helps mate
it seems your never to old to learn, its the first ive heard of these licences, but will print a copy and add it to my folder of credentrials, cant have too much proof of being a responsible shooter in my opinion, it all helps in aquiring permision, good stuff.
Good info
thanks
Handy to have these, all helps when getting permissions I suppose....cheers for the link
What does it say in licence about herons, and urban foxes last year i had six of my koi carp taken, all around may and june time, and last month i had three more taken from my pond. After last years loss i covered the pond with wire mesh, but that was destroyed by urban foxes, is a pcp rifle strong enough to take out a fox? if it was allowed. and the herons have ruined the ponds of quite a few people i know. As far as i know these menaces are protected, whats your view?
Don't even think of killing a Heron. A neighbours son killed one for the same reasons. A few months later a chap turned up with a meter and aerial. It turned out that the Heron was buried in his garden and had a transmitter implanted in it. They found it and he was fined.
Sounds implausible to me but that's the storyline I got from his father.
