Not trying to be diffficult but that is not necessarily technically or legally correct , certainly in England/Wales anyway.

 

Home Office Firearms Law Guidance to Police 2002

 

Exemptions from the requirement to hold a certificate

 

Shot Guns

 

1968 Act

 

Section 11(5) of the 1968 Act allows an individual, without holding a shot gun certificate, to borrow a shot gun from the occupier of private premises and use it on those premises in the occupiers presence. The presence of the occupier is normally taken to mean within sight and earshot of the individual borrowing the firearm.

 

 

 

Rifles

 

1968 Act

 

Section 16.1 of the Act enables a person to borrow a rifle from the occupier of private premises and to use it on those premises in the presence of either the occupier or their servant without holding a firearm certificate in respect of that rifle.

 

 

The term "occupier" is not defined in the Firearms Act, nor has a court clarified its meaning. However, the Firearms Consultative Committee in their 5th Annual Report recommended that the provisions of section 27 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 be adopted. This states that "occupier" in relation to any land, other than the foreshore, includes any person having any right of hunting, shooting, fishing or taking game or fish.

 

 

 

With regards organised shoots/shooting holidays, many have Home Office/Police approval clearing them to "lend" you guns during the course of your holiday! :thumbs:

No idea about money, fortunately I have contacts and land these days and not bought a shooting holiday for about 30 years, it was Deer in Scotland then, and I didn't bring any home!! Search the web and I'm sure you'll come up with something to tell you more!!
