Estate Rifle rule as you say covers 'rifles' even though in law that term is not defined, the mini rifle range range (amongst other stipulations) also states 'rifles' so again as an LBP you cant use either rule for its loan to a non holder.
Add in RFD rights, where in theory an RFD can 'demo' a gun for sale and it gets even more complicated.
Northants police positively hate LBP's with a passion so to keep an easy life we just dont loan or rent any LBP at all, its just not worth the grief.
I obviously got the wrong end of the stick with your post and thought you said you were loaning LBPs... apologies.
Your web site used to say that you had an LBP available to hire, maybe they have seen that?
