And why is his word better than ours :11: Seriously, as I said in our PM conversation, the Police have the right to sieze a gun and have it tested ONLY if they believe a crime has been or is being committed. As you said, the ARU checked out your permission which was verified as being legal, so they should not have taken them The bit about your mate though, well if thats the case, he is I am affraid, up the creek without a paddle Take care Phantom Quote Link to post

JackReid 35 Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 My gunsmith told me a policemen cant touch you rifle, dont try to stop him, but make him aware you need to take his number. They simply wont touch it. They cant say 'That looks powerful' they have to have a better reason. Will be interested to hear further details of this story. Jack Quote Link to post
GetOnitSkinDown 5 Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Last year I had a couple of experiances with Oscar Nine Nine (Hull area Helicopter) on my permissions, a friendly wave with a bunny in one hand, and a gun (pointing down) in the other hand and they left me alone. You have 3 hands? You gave a friendly wave with - a bunny in one hand and a gun pointing down in the other? Quote Link to post

Make sure that you let the local press know about it when the case is finished so people can see how the local police are wasting tax payers money Dont forget to keep us all informed I love it when the ordinary man can stick it to the authorities when they think they are above the law and always right.

big bri whit 1 Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) i was one of the lads out with t1 and had my son out for first time he's 15 and his mothers beed wingeing for me to take him . i think this has put him right off now due to heavy handed ness of the plod.. well o.t.t. as we had permission but they wernt interested kept saying its an offence to have guns in bags in a public place..5plod cars riot van helicopter and armed responce. no wonder theres so many burglaries.. still though just pissed off that they took our guns when they said we could have them back if permission checked out. which it did..wots going on? surely as no offence commited they should not have taken them. and if they thought we had commited an offence they should have arrested us there and then.
