That is the loophole for mini-rifle ranges, set up as a mini range business & buy semi auto .22's & ammo with no FAC, to potentially lend to your mate in the local drug gang .
No I couldn’t. But that wasn’t the point of my reply. Jesim was saying the issue was that anyone could run a range and they still can.

There are other loopholes which effectively allow you to be in possession of larger calibre rifles and ammunition without an FAC but as you point out you’d need the club armourer to purchase them first under their FAC.
