That 6ft/lbs pistol limit

[angrybear]

I've given up when something written in black & white in the firearms act seems to be ignored in a rifle on open sale.

It seems to be a case that you interpret the rules, build it & hope no one objects enough to take it to court.

Hmmm…could see the 2250 ending up suddenly not being imported into the UK any more, with possible ramifications for existing owners re a hand-in. No doubt there may be other examples (models/makes) out there, but it does seem to be a prime candidate for ‘mis-adventure’ by idiots.

Intriguing.

What ramifications?

After the Brocock air cartridge problem very sadly I made use of a large hammer and then handed mine in to a very local place. No fuss at all, nothing was said, just continued burbling its way along.
