Guest Frank Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi folks, Im thinking of giving up shooting for good. Too much red tape ect, has me driven mad :wacko: I go a lot with freinds anyway, so fox shooting, deer stalking ect will still be happening, but, just not with my guns, as im selling the lot. Im going to stick with my lurchers ferrets ect, bit more freedom. Just thought id let you all know Thanks, Frank. Quote Link to post
onelesscharlie 0 Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hi Frank This is a sorry tale and one seen far too often. Keep your guns, cos one day you will just fancy a quick potter after that charlie and believe me if youre pissed off with paperwork now its nothing compared to the pile of the stuff to get em back. keep the faith alive best regards Onelesscharlie Quote Link to post

Guest Macnas Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Have a bit of a think about it Frank. It's hard enough to get your certs in the first place, I'd never give up any of mine. And it's good fun even when it's hard work isn't it? Quote Link to post
Guest SJM Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I agree with what the lads have allready said, its far harder to get guns back after giving them up, think yoursellf lucky you can have guns on the ticket, some of us dont have that option available to us I would have a rethink as if you do regret it the red tape to get them back could be worse than what youre experiencing at the moment.

"I am trying, at present, to apply for a 6.5 x 55, but dont seem to be getting anywhere no.gif , too much red tape ect, they want me to get rid of the .223, which i wont, as im too attach to it. biggrin.gif " Quote Link to post
Guest Frank Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Thanks folks. Ricky, you are correct, i am very attach to my .223 and i have been thinking about this for the past 6 months, not easy . The law will change here soon, i would have to get a 1800 Euro, eircom phone watch ( ALARM) fitted in, to keep my guns, which i just cant afford. The guns are in my firearms dealer as from today, i have variouse gun stuff for sale aswell, scope ect. All the best, Frank. Quote Link to post
