jazz_11 5 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 you will have to put it on you certificate as a firearm and once its on as a rifle i dont think it can ever get taken off it will always be a firearm even when you sell it. Quote Link to post
Guest hyperion Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 plenty of ways to do it but i aint saying a word on here! it would have to go on your f.a.c and then once classed as a firearm it can never be declassified even if its detuned to sub 12 ft/lbs! cheers hyperion Quote Link to post

If you have a FAC which has a spare slot for the appropriate calibre of air rifle you have then you can do whatever you like to take it into FAC territory. Your FAC MUST specifically have an appropriate spare slot! However, as already said, once you FAC it, it will stay FAC until the day it dies even if you take it back sub 12ft lb. Quote Link to post

philip140 6 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 it's unlikely anyone is going to tell you on here mate since no one can tell if you really have a firearms cert. i have little knowledge on spring guns, but have tuned many PCP's. i would suspect it would involve having a longer barrel fitted for a start and a more powerful spring, the latter can be bought, but you'll have to produce your fac cert for that. best bet is to have it taken in to a gun shop and have it done properly, if you try it yourself and balls it up, it'll end up costing you more, you'll probably need a spring press to install the larger spring too!
