| '''Air Rifles'''
| | #REDIRECT [[Guns and replicas#Air rifles]] |
| | |
| Air rifles are regarded as firearms when used or carried for illegal activities. See [http://www.youngmans.com/acatalog/law.html www.youngmans.com/acatalog/law.html]
| |
| | |
| Air rifles over a certain bore need a licence and so should '''not''' be given to a non licence holder.
| |
| | |
| If you have a 'no firearms' rule you can reasonably refuse any posts for air rifles.
| |
| | |
| There are age restrictions on both purchasing and carrying air rifles in public places.
| |
| | |
| There are also age restrictions on supervision of young persons with firearms.
| |
| | |
| See [http://www.met.police.uk/firearms_licensing/air_weapons.html www.met.police.uk/firearms_licensing/air_weapons.html ]
| |
| | |
| It is recommended that if you do allow a post, that you remove any reference that there may be to shooting live creatures, as otherwise you will be deluged with complaints.
| |
| | |
| It is also illegal to shoot protected species, and domestic animals with the exception of dogs (when chasing farm animals) . Most birds are protected too, see [http://f4bscale.worldonline.co.uk/gunlaw.htm f4bscale.worldonline.co.uk/gunlaw.htm]
| |
| | |
| Groups based in country areas will be much more relaxed about air rifles that those in the cities.
