Just out of interest what makes you think that?

If/when he gets his license back will peoples views change?
All views expressed are my own unless otherwise stated! So please take your time to consider my opinions as biased to what i think is best....

I think if he had his certificates reinstated there wouldn't be an issue.

However at present we have an individual who has had his certificates revoked and has been advised to not even reapply for another year, yet not only is he going to be producing videos of him shooting, but even using more restrictive items such as sec 1 shotguns and LBP's (and even mention of sec 5) all of which they claim is OK as its for TV/youtube.

I think this puts him in a grey area as someone who has had his certs revoked and may lead to people taking notice and cracking down on what might be considered a loophole, as using their logic, anyone can use LBP's as long as its going to be posted as a video online(I'm sure there is more detail to the exemptions such as them setting up a production company).

Overall whilst I used to be a fan on English shooting, I think i will be waiting to see how this plays out before forming a new opinion.

I take back what I ssaid in my last post, he's just put on Facebook that he's been doing an interviewer with c**kface in chief Sean O'Neill who wrote the smear pieces in the Times a couple of weeks back tenuously trying to link practical shotgun in the UK to the NZ shooter. I really don't know if he's just THAT (over)confident in his own abilities, he has zero concept of the trap he's walked into or he's just an absolute plum. wtf

Just looking at that too.
I hope he took some good advice prior to agreeing to do that.
Its really easy to be caught out in this scenario by a clever wordsmith.
I hope he retained all rights to the content and its use in the press.
TBF Its more than I have seen anyone else attempt to do!

FFS!! This bloke needs an effing biblical dose of STFU! I always thought he was a cock, then his predicament confirmed this. Now he thinks he can go up against Sean O’Neil and effectively “win”?!!! Utterly delusional.

I don’t do social media beyond this forum and a couple for selling stuff. Anyone who does, would you please “Twatter” him or whatever and tell him to BE QUIET!!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

At the moment the content of the interview hasn't been disclosed.
He has been asked if and when it will be.
