Shooting on land with a closed license

[Dave_4 102]

Evening,

Just after some advice,

I have an open firearms license with permission on several pieces of land. A friend has a fac air rifle on a closed license, if he’s with me on my permission can he use his air rifle? 
 

I can’t see the difference between that and me using the rifle of the person I would stalk with before I got my license. 
 

Cheers, Dave

I believe he can use it on land that has been certified for use of a firearm up to a given calibre in general terms. That said he may have a specific condition on his license.

A simple call to the FEO should clarify and possibly open up the conversation regarding getting his ticket opened. I’ve always been lucky in Suffolk with the local FEO’s, they tend to be a help & not a hinderance.

It depends on the conditions on his ticket, it can be anything from only allowed to use at a club to use it where you like, I’ve never seen the point of a closed ticket, if your not capable of making correct decisions regarding where it’s suitable to use it then you shouldn’t have it

You mean licence (ce), not 'license' (se). Licence is the noun, whereas license is the verb only, unless you're American. Therefore you license (verb) someone by issuing them a licence (noun), hence TV licence, driving licence, licence fee, my licence, etc ‒ no 's' in licence when it's a noun.

Anyway, please use and preserve our English language and avoid adopting unnecessary Americanisms. We're losing both our culture and our very own language. Please don't allow this to happen.

 Madam, I find abbreviations so very vulgar!  Why did you use the  abbreviations 'you're', 'it's, 'TV', 'we're' and 'dont'?

I am a scholar and a country gentleman. I hold a first class honours degree awarded by the University of Life.  I much prefer and demand : 'you are;' 'it is;' 'Television;' 'we are'; and 'do not' in formal prose.

I abhor informal language. We are british. This is our language. We must uphold the standards of the  country and the empire. How will savages learn except by example? I beseech you, please, desist from  the use of abbreviation in any of your future posts. No more lazy indiscretions!

It is our solemn  duty,  as members of the aristocracy,  to set grammatical standards for the lumpen proletariat . If you were my fag  and a chap I would beat you severely with my slipper.

Where is your breeding?  Camilla and the late Diana only managed one 'O' level between them. A true lady cares little about grammar and less about pedantry. Devote yourself to managing the staff and organising balls in the 'big house' on your country estate. Know your place and your role within God's universe.  If in doubt about your function , I advise the careful study of  the late Maggie Smith, star of Downton Abbey. She was an excellent role model for a lady of breeding. We chaps should be left to our brandy, bridge and snooker, not lectured to by the fairer sex!

 I do not wish to have to refer to the lack of grammatical rigour in your posts again. I implore you. Cease your careless and flippant use of abbreviation!
