Transporting charged guns

[ayjay]

I was reading something on the Crosman forum ( http://www.network54.com/Forum/threa...eid=1122336356 ) and one of the posts says that in England you cannot transport an Airsource Crosman with the bottle on it.
Is this really the case? Surely if it is then it means you cannot transport a charged pnuematic. Doesn't sound right to me.

Technically you can not carry CO2 in or attached to a Gun
Comes as it allows rapid fire from old Fire Arms Day's

You might get away on a Rifle if the removal would mean waste of CO2
Small bottle no excuse as have far less shots.

In Practical Pistol , we use CO2 Pistols and have been advised many times by fellow Shooters who spending their working day's as Police Fire Arms Officers

Same as you must not carry a magazine or load magazine with a Pre Charge Air Gun

It has in the past been suggested that magazines and pellets should not be transported in the same bag.

In case lost in transit
Which then gives some one a gun and ammunition

In these day's it pays to be extra careful what you do in public or via public
access.

As well as my Beesa, I shoot a Ratcatcher when plinking at my local club. It's the standard one so 30 shots and it's running out of CO2, so I always take the powerlet out anyway. Thing is I didn't know I HAD to, so could have so easily have fallen foul of the law. Ignorance is no excuse I know, I'm just a little shocked at how easily things could have gone t1t$ up.
