Drill Purpose Rifle L59A1 UK Legal Status

[Beerhunter]

1. If you are referring to the L59

2. The Proof House do not have an option but to not give it a Deact Cert. The claim they must follow the HO guidelines, but appreciate the stupidity of the present position with the L59.

1. No I am not. I was referring to a post about the No4 Skeletons. In my opinion the two (Skeleton and L59) should not be bundled together in these discussions.

2. I agree with the Proof House - sadly. In my opinion, the Proof House's claim is valid because that is what is laid down in the Statute. To enable an L59 to be considered deactivated the Home Office Guidelines need to be changed. I posted the two factors in the Statute for a firearms to be considered deactivated and that they comply with the Home Office Guidelines is one of them. That is where (the HO) the pressure needs to be applied.

BTW as soon as this is sorted, I want one. I have never wanted one until now. Currently I wouldn't mind just seeing one.
