Simoman 110 Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Poor girl, I think airguns are often treated more like a toy than a weapon I'm so paranoid with even my airgun its locked away with my shotgun safely away from my kids........ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

badoosh 1 Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 air rifles are going to go the same way as handguns did after Dunblane ban them all only thing is, it only hurts the legitimate owners. don't see many little GANGSTA'Z bothered about legislation. parts of Manchester are like the wild west with gunshots everynight. probably the same in all major cities all these little shites seem to get hold of handguns no problem so it's a case of watch this space, before there's a licencing system for owning an airgun but hey why care,just become a scrote and end up on an all expenses paid holiday to the lake district education is the key rant over thanks for reading Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hiho 5 Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 if they do ban airguns wouldnt that just mean there would be a million fac`s getting sent to the police at the same time well atleast all airguns would be able to go above 12ftlb i suppose Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Over here, air guns are simply treated as Firearms. Period. A .177 Pistol is just that; A PISTOL. Same regulations apply as for a 9mm. And a .22 Air Rifle is treated like a .243. And, if ye fire Anything stupidly? Ye stand to get Five Years. Suits me. I was a Qualified Safe Shooter before I came here. Now I hold a major summit in my own head before touching that trigger! But small birds are left alone here. Ye just Don't See kids with air guns. Shoot someone here? May as well use the next round on yeself. I have absolutely no problems with our system. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Coney 3 Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Another one in the eye for us airgunners ( not literally I hope ) bad press again, feel sorry for the poor kid!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 fair point ditch..............has that always been the case over there? I really wouldn't know about the historical situation, mate. But I came here fully intending to do as the laws of this land told me to. That's what they tell me about firearms. I don't question it. But, from a purely personal standpoint? It suits me fine. Don't get me wrong. I'm Not saying we have it so right we've cured all 'problems'. Far from it. Barely a day goes past here without some Gangland fatal shooting down in the big cities. I don't s'pose Those hand guns are licensed either. But, here in the sticks? Like I say; Ye just don't see cammo clad kids cracking away at Jackdaws and god knows what, in or out of the breeding season, just to get bragging rights over a " Kill ". Nor do younger kids get shot. We just seem to have an entirely differant Conciounse Collective here. Almost everyone I know owns guns. Yet nothing happens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SEAN3513 7 Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 thanks ditch... interesting................maybe these more stringent laws help the situation.......presumably the sentences are tougher? or more likely......... down to the mentality of "kids" on the street wanting one upmanship on their peers. we get no problems up here.............its very rural, and thats probably the answer, theres probably a sub-concious that has a respect and understanding, from days gone by,it has to be inbred i suppose?? or have i completely lost the plot???
