Anyone see the Good Morning Britain bit with Mike Eveleigh, on airguns this morning, I missed it, just wondering how it went?
You can see the discussion on the GMB web site, its about 8 min long. Highly emotive, very understandably, as the parents of a young boy who was killed were speaking about their campaign to change the laws on airguns , wanting them to be locked away.
Mike repeatedly made it clear that law had already been changed after this incident, with the intent of keeping airguns out of the hands of those under 18 not authorised by the owner to use them, and there was no need to tighten the laws further.

VSS airguns haven't been for sale in toy shops well at least legally for many years. In order to sell airguns as a business you must be a RFD.
Ditto ,6 grandkids and no access to mine ,all locked away till ratty needs a lead pil.Kids are curious and view weapons from a X box ,Play station perspective so to get their mitts on a air rifle/pistol without supervision is a recipe for disaster Imho .The only issue is the sheer volume of air weapons already in the public domain and the "its only an airgun" mentality of some who dont recognise the danger
