Gents thanks very much for the advice. Everything has been resolved as nicely as it could be. If anybody is ever in the same situation here is what happened (I obviously can't say that it would apply in every circumstance ) My mate's ticket was issued by Manchester police whilst mine is from Lancashire (Preston), I called my FEO and explained the situation and he called his opposite number in Manchester, obviously the shotguns weren't an issue but the rifles and black powder pistols were. The FEO from Manchester met me at my mates house and checked that everything was on t

Hi all, Sorry that this is a little morbid but please bare with me. A good friend of mine passed away suddenly yesterday, he was a great guy who loved life, his bikes, cars and of course shooting. I have been asked by his partner to deal with his firearms, shotguns & ammunition. I hold both FAC and SGC but obviously don't have free slots for all the FAC stuff, I think that all that can be sorted on a temporary basis given the circumstances but how do I approach the police with the info that his Mrs knows where his safe keys are? Everything is on ticket etc but the last

As I own two I'd say land rover every time but you are right, what you would get for £2k would need a lot of TLC Out of your list I would go for a Pajero, I had a SWB turbo diesel, slow but capable truck but mine never went wrong. (apart from when I rolled it but I can't blame the truck for that!) HTH's, Mick.

Derboy you are a star

Sorry if this is in the wrong section. Can anybody tell me where I can buy the type of lamp that goes through the roof of a 4x4 (in my case Defender 110) that you can aim and operate from the inside? Cheers, Mick.

Where abouts are you Matt?

No he wouldn't, he doesn't know what the keys are for or where you live (unless you tell him) and he isn't going to keep a duplicate of every key he cuts.

Very interested in this. My Mrs has started clay shooting with me (her SGC application is pending) and at the moment I make sure she gives me any spare cartridges she has at the end of each shoot but on weekends when I'm on call she has had to give cartridges away as we think she can't be in possession of them on her own. Mick.

Where are you based matt?

Another vote for the Debden kit. Bit spendy but IMHO well worth it.

Superb.

Hey Mick, hope you had a good Xmas! A kinetic hammer, looks a bit like a normal hammer with a screw off end which opens so you can place a charged round in to it. You then screw the end back on and hit the hammer on to a hard surface, this dislodges the bullet which will come out of the case. Sounds scary and it is!! Best by far is a bullet puller which fits in to your press like a die. There is a collet which grips the bullet and as you lower the press arm, the bullet is separated from the case. Hammer Collet I've used both and snapped the hammer after the first few tries. I've be
