Also confused, are you employed by the estate or do you lease the land, is Jacob working for you or for the estate , the only justification I can see for what they say is that they don't consider him a servant of the occupier, as for estate rifle what is an estate rifle the rifle though maybe owned by the estate must be on the landowners or some employees certificate, there is no such thing as a certificate for an estate rifle, if you see where I am coming from, so what difference does it make if the Landowners rifle is put on his ticket or he uses his own.
I have been an estate stalker for a good many years both in full time employment and as a contractor in some cases I was supplied with an estate rifle, which was used for clients in some cases my own was used , police in full knowledge that my rifle was used as the estate rifle in fact encouraged as it cut down on the number of visitor permit applications.
