arveyboy 0 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 correct me if im wrong but theres no way your licensing department would approve an air rifle for foxes, even if it was fac rated. alot of departments wont even approve rimfire for fox control. sorry mate Quote Link to post

SportingShooter 0 Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Interesting one! I'm not sure on the legal age to Own an Airgun, to buy its 18. What is interesting is that if you had an FAC at 14 for FAC Air, would they allow you to be given a standard power airgun and have it tuned. I'll see what I can find. But this is what I can see. If at 14 you are granted an FAC for an Air Weapon over 12 ft/lbs, your father (who is presumably going to buy you the rifle for Christmas) could then give it to you, so that it can be entered on your FAC. Hmmmm. SS Quote Link to post
