Good luck with the sale bud, but forgive the negativity, a centerfire moderator is a firearm in its own right, to sell this as a dedicated .243 moderator would require the buyer to have a slot on his or her ticket, so unless I am very much mistaken face to face or rfd transfer would be the legal way of processing this sale, of course if it was an air rifle moderator then that would be perfectly legit, I am prepared to be corrected on this, but I think I am correct.

A moderator is a moderator, it will be proofed up to a certain calibre. All I have on my ticket are slots for centre fire and rimfire moderators, no calibre indicated. So I could buy that moderator for any of my two centrefires....BUT in saying that, I have heard of other people who have had dedicated mods put onto their tickets.

Is this down to different police forces? Not trying to cause a barney lads, just pointing something out.

I know SACS and BASC are currently trying to get mods taken off type 1 at the moment, so that they can be handled as non-firearms.....seems sensible to me....

That sounds the most sensible thing mate. it says on my certificate 243 moderator, i had to get a variation for my 222 for a moderator seems daft, the hole firearms application in gloucestershire is a real pain, it took 11 months for them to process my last renewal.

Exactly, and then you run into guys like my mate who used to live in Glasgow, I bought his mod from him as he had had a clause imposed on him (due to a variation) that he must have, and I quote, a .243 moderator and a .308 moderator...and the fao was quite adamant about it.......his mod wasnt stamped, so he couldnt own it as he didnt have a slot for it. Total madness!

      Haven't been on here in a while and haven't been shooting in a while so I'm deciding so sell some gear and focus on other things.
      Firstly is my BSA lightning tactical xl in .177 comes with hawke hd 3-9x40 scope, one piece mounts and a LED ray gl2 torch with flip up red filter and buffalo river case.
      Only fault with the gun is the front sling swivel is missing.
      I also have a mad dog growler jacket in APG size medium
      A top gun skeet vest size medium
      British army Dpm smock medium-large
      British army issue jungle boots size 11
      Large jack pike shooting hold all
      British army cam net unsure of size but large enough for a personal hide
      I would like to see £130 for the rifle but I'm open to offers for everything together in a bundle
      Collection only for the rifle but the other items I can post and take paypal payments
      I'm in Warminster Wiltshire
      Thanks
