There is a Remington pump action 12g on Guntrader with a rifled barrel. I questioned the dealer this morning he said its S1 and has been approved by the local plod.
Looking at the legislation:
"(Firearms 1968) S5 Weapons subject to general prohibition.E+W+S
(1)A person commits an offence if, without the authority of the Defence Council [F1or the Scottish Ministers (by virtue of provision made under section 63 of the Scotland Act 1998)], he has in his possession, or purchases or acquires, or manufactures, sells or transfers.....
[(ab)any self-loading or pump-action [F3rifled gun] other than one which is chambered for .22 rim-fire cartridges;"
Am i missing something?
