I share facilities and it states "may borrow and use" on our tickets - so each firearm is only entered on one ticket

If my father purchases a rifle the local force will add it to my license for free, but if I want to shoot it I have to pay for a variation.

this might have changed, its been 4 years since I brought anything.

OK am going to ask for:

Her FAC 2 by .22 & 1 by .308 & ask for the 2 existing guns on the club & my ticket to be put on at issue.
Hold 500 x308 acquire 300, & hold 6000 x0.22" acquire 5000 (a batch).
Accept an access only via with me clause till 18.
Ask for the 2 existing guns she uses to be put on both my & the clubs FAC's. will that cost me?

Its after 18 years old that I need help with - as a full member, adult with access she will technically be able to access 3 cabinets & use any one of:

RPA 308,
Swing 308
Barnard 308
2 Paramount 308's
3 P14's
2 No4 303's
12 off 22 rifles, one a 10:22

Plus club ammo several ks or rnds. .... are they likely to be OK with that or throw a dicky fit?
Quality control of Scottish Ethanol. & RDX/HMX

& my fav chemical is :-) 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine.......... used to kill frogs.... but widely consumed & in vast quantities by the French? Eh?

If she is a club member S15(1) F(A)A 88 applies and she can have access "as a club member in connection with target shooting" without a FAC. "As a club member ..." has never been defined in law. If it came to an argument I doubt if anyone would actually take it to court as the outcome could be utterly uncertain and possibly hugely advantageous to shooters.
