Offensive Weapons Bill
If you shoot .22 at any club that is not home office approved i.e. that operates under section 11.4 of the firearm act, this bill will shut you down unless the firearms you use are on your FAC.
This bill will be the end of all the miniature rifle clubs that are not home office approved
The intention of the bill is to stop the gang scrotes getting hold of firearms and ammunition without the need for ANY paperwork. It will do this. But rather than alter the wording of 11.4 they plan to simply remove it from the firearms act, effectively crippling the majority of uk small bore clubs.
They have been really sneaky by not putting it in the bill itself, instead they have hidden it in an obscure page of amendments. See below.
