Errm? I think that boat sailed forty plus years ago? Thatcher's Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 prohibted their use for game shooting?

Mutiny! Or at least that's why the .410" Enfield musket issued in India had a wooden block pinned into its magazine well. So that even at short range those armed with such couldn't match round for round those opposing them armed with unrestricted .303 Enfield rifles. I imagine the same mindest still endured in 1988 when Thatcher introduced s1 controls on multishot shotguns.
Which means you probably didn’t have genuine good reason in the first place.
8 shot came in mighty useful when Pigeons were stripping the rape in the snow and hands were frozen, too bl**dy cold to keep reloading.
Earlier old keeper said he’d never used 5 shots at one time, have a photo somewhere of maybe not all 8 cases in the air but very close to it… certainly warms the barrel lol.

I'd disagree. Sometimes it is better to concede a little to retain a lot more.
My reasons were good and justified but I decided to drop it as it seems they are stopping them across the board but as I’ve said before was my variation and my decision and nobody else’s
Fair one, I am in the, ‘they should follow the guidance’ camp and will argue my point if the say no and by doing so go against the guidance.
They won’t be taking mine off me come renewal as long as the statutory guidance still covers it.
Why would the police listen to a charity with no political clout
I'm sorry, I may of not worded that the best. I was just asking the question
Just wrote to my MP again about this, firstly to thank him for attending the debate, then I pointed out the recent GTA figure for lost revenue and jobs, and finally, I asked him to apply for a SGC, then he himself can see what its like to deal with a failed system (no I don't think he'll do it)

Correct you can only use them for target shooting.
Not true at all. Mine is conditioned for vermin.
