We urge all UK shooters to sign the BASC petition to halt the proposed merging of Section 1 (Fi****ms) and Section 2 (Shotguns) licensing, if you haven't already.
The last thing we need is shotgun owners being wrapped into the restrictive delays of S1 certificates. Police fi****ms licensing departments are stretched enough as it is. If it ain't broke...
Keep section 1 firearm & section 2 shotgun licensing separate. I think this would help to protect law-abiding owners, the shooting industry, & rural communities. Policies should focus on real public safety issues without burdening responsible citizens or damaging heritage & livelihoods.
