Government is set to introduce new laws to licence antique firearms!

The main purpose of legislation and firearms law in this country is to take guns away from public use. Anyone who doesn't acknowledge this is kidding them-self.

I tend to agree with you on the above ,its creeping legislation

Can’t see a problem, we all know that sect 58 is a joke, get everything on a licence I say.

Quite so. Very good idea. And licence anything that could be turned into a firearm, licence lathes, drills, matches (improvised propellant) metal bar, tubes, the list is endless.
