Just a question- say I was to take apart my take-down rifle, carry the barrel and cylinder to a farm first, and then make another trip carrying the action? I don't see that I would be actually carrying an air rifle, merely bits of it.[/quote]

I don't know. In the hyper unlikely event that you're caught, you could become the legal test case! <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->

Alternatively, if your farmer has a shed, you could keep your rifle there without even locking it up. There is no secure storage requirement for non FAC air rifles. As a matter of fact, you could buy a pallet of cheap Chinese air rifles and leave them scattered around the farm in full view of public footpaths etc. and AFAIK you wouldn't be breaking the law. That's unless you're in Scotland or NI.
