yes i have the serial numbers of all my guns but i did not log their serial numbers as i bought them from people i know



when i worked in the mountain bike shop we took the names of people that traded bikes in . some came up as stolen and the addresses we were given were real but the people did not live there .

would you ask for proof of address from the guy you buy your rifle off in tescos car park and they had no car and walked there ?

if you think its fine then do so . but i bet not all thieves selling items give their real details.

you just have to look at the lengths the graham brothers have went to scam people .fake addresses ,fake names and so on.


just remember , not all people tell the truth
Fair enough each to their own ,but I feel the more we can do to make it that more difficult for the scammers and thieves the better ! Mike.
