At the end of the day these guns were deemed to be legal, within the spirit and letter of the law, by the authorities, HO, Firearms licensing, or they would not be allowed to be sold, if they are not then why were they allowed in the first place?safetyfirst wrote:Not to be forgotten is that the lever release and mars systems are an attempt to circumvent the spirit of the legislation, which is something people may not take kindly to.
The fact that they are allowed surely shows that the authorities believed that they do meet with the letter and the spirit of the legislation. So what has changed for them to now renege on there original decision?
Other than a cynical PC, anti gun, non evidence based, emotional, headline grabbing, being seeing to be doing something that will make no difference, anti gun agenda. Surely this should be sufficiently good grounds for a counter argument.

) but now we are all tarred. Now I get that people will miss, but to entirely miss the butt stop with anything else (as we cannot conclude that ALL of the holes in the surround and roof where bullets should be nowhere near were by semi autos) when I struggle to miss the black on a 10 target TR card (from an appropriate position) or a rep fig 12 from all the other CSR positions (in fact I have never hit the wooden target holders either that are shot to bits) then you have to ask what the RCOs are up to.....Oh , they are not on the range...perfect.
Well said Maggot and Matnall............
