A couple of years ago the Olympic starter pistol was banned http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8625194.stm , I remember a notice on the club board about them having to be handed in . I have just found this for sale http://www.gunstar.co.uk/Starter-Guns/o ... 68644.aspx is it different from those that were banned , now orange instead of red ,
Any one know different ?

It was not the .22 ones that were banned - it was the .380 ones - you can still buy the .22 ones.
