delswal 3,819 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 The lad has a closed ticket, but the land has been passed for all calibres. Therefore, if he's sure his mate's permission covers him to shoot there, and he checks the land is defintely cleared, he can shoot there to his heart's content while he's with his mate. Not rocket science. If tornados conditions state the certificate has been granted for shooting over NAMED land and is a closed ticket , he cannot use the firearms on any other land unless the conditions on his certificate are changed to do so , regardless wether the land is passed or not Quote Link to post
walshie 2,804 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Closed tickets (round here at least) state so and so land or land deemed suitable by the chief constable. (i,e ANY land that has been cleared) Quote Link to post
Blackdog92 2,047 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I hope I don't sound stupid saying this but. Why do you need to get your land passed for calibres I just don't understand what it meens. Basically because some calibers are more powerful than others. Yes I understand that. I meen like does someone have to check the peace of land and say u can only shoot this calibre gun here or is it something else...? Quote Link to post

I'm fully capable of reading where he comes from, as I did before I tried helping to answer the lads question. I'm aware how far that is from Surrey and I'm also aware what a closed certificate is.

SportingShooter 0 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Tornado - to clarify everything, perhaps you wouldn't mind writing what your certificate states in regards to land exactly as it is written on your FAC, Firearms law is an ass and in my opinion it is best to deal with facts Quote Link to post
zx10mike 137 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 tell your friend you don't trust him and show him this thread you will be uninvited and problem solved 1 Quote Link to post
Tornado1979 145 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Wow... Just got in from work to find I've been missing out on all this lol. I'll check ticket in morn and post lads, and just to confirm I've got closed ticket and my friends got open. Quote Link to post
zx10mike 137 Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 if the land is passed for your cal then your good to go. Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 If you or your friend has an open ticket and permission off the land owner to shoot thats fine: if you deem the land suitable. No need to call the police for clarification over the land if you deem it suitable.If you do not have an open ticket you can't shoot the land even with the farmers permission.Why not? OP says land is passed for all calibres! Because if he has a closed ticket the firearms officer will have to check the land first to approve it However if your friend has an open ticket you could shoot under his supervision as long as you have the permission from farmer No he can't, he has to adhere to the conditions written on his own certificate, not his mates. exactly charlie …….the nominated land to which the certificate holder can shoot over will be named on his certificate , flout the conditions on your certificate you risk losing it "Why not? OP says land is passed for all calibres!" Your region does not get your FAC back and write every piece of land on it every time you get somewhere new, they just approve it, in this cas it is apparently already approved! Quote Link to post

"land deemed suitable by the chief constable" he is fine. Perhaps you should calm down a bit, seems you are making assumptions as well, the advice given in this thread is sound, you have gone out on a limb making assumptions and knocking everyone else, as SS says, lets see what his FAC actually says!

He doesn't even need a FAC to shoot the land at all under certain conditions. He does not have to comply with the conditions of his FAC in many circumstances, how about he went on an accompanied paid deer stalk, which part of his FAC says he can do that? Quote Link to post
