The law was supposed to be passed sometime last year, and would have made it illegal to purchase and own DEMILITERIZED guns, because the UK government thought that a criminal in the UK would spend 5-800 euros on one of these non firing guns, and someone be able to make it into a fully firing machinegun. When they could simply drive the chunnel, buy an illegal weapon for LESS in france or Germanyicon, and drive back home with it.
    Absolute rubbish - do you have a link to that document that you found ?

    I very much doubt the Government would remain the Government for very long if the started using terms like "racist white people".
    We do not use the term 'demiliterized' we use 'deactivated' and a deactivated weapon CANNOT be un-deactivated.
    The law that came into effect in December 2019 was to actually formalise the purchase / sale / registration of Deactivated firearms - NOT to make ownership illegal.

    It sounds as if you have been reading some weird underground tabloid news-sheet.

    You may find the attached of interest showing part of what needs to be done to de-activate a firearm.

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...
