Firing and using Obsolete Cal smoothbore

[enfield2band]

If you buy an obsolete Cal Musket say good condition Black Bess how do you get it on your Sec 2 ??

As far as I am aware you can write it on your SGC and send it in to the police with a covering letter stating that it is an antique and that you now intend to use it for target shooting on approved ranges.

Some FEO's will tell you that once it is on the certificate it cannot be taken off. That is not true. If you decide not to use it you can take it off the SGC and hang it on the wall.
From what I have heard a lot of people put an antique in their license, use it a few times and then take it off. This creates a lot of paperwork which they would like to avoid.

I put a 12.7x44R Swedish rolling block on my ticket many years ago,
I am thinking of taking it off and hanging it on the wall as I do not shoot it now,
will I be able to do a one for one and get another cal on my ticket instead of the 12.7,
thanks,T

I think it would be treated the same as selling a rifle where you can have the slot put back for a different calibre.

I would send a letter telling them you want it removed from your FAC and replaced with ***calibre.
