Polchraine has raised a very valid point and is basically being told to be quiet which is not right.Alpha1 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 11:21 pmWhy have you asked for an explanation are you looking to buy a firearm you don,t have a variation for why do you think you need to involve Solicitors. Has I said get a variation for the caliber you want then go buy the firearm what is so complicated about that.

What is wrong with you people they have advised you in good faith of the requirements you need to stay within the law and keep plod happy. Its not rocket science get a variation then go buy the firearm in the caliber you want.
I have asked for an explanation of where the instruction comes from. The link provided does not say it and interpretation of te the text does not give that impression either.
To me it sounds like another of those "you have to do it this way" comments that proliferates. An RFD can decide not to accept a deposit, but that is their choice and no in line with the text.
The link provided only stated bad business practice.
