Perhaps you had better check with the legal eagles as I am pretty sure unless you find one that will take the case on for a fee, the free advice and support wouldn't touch you with a barge pole for defence on this one.
Zeroing is defined as zeroing ones sights not practicing to massage ones ego on long range targets.
Yes the law and those whom drafted it were idiots with little to no knowledge about what the laws concerns however we are stuck with it and must comply even if those whom are responsible for the laws only give lip service to the law when it suits them.
As your aware I know only too well just how much the powers that be flaunt the law when it suits then. However I am not in the financial position to take them to task over it in
our corrupt system. Oh for a nice little lottery tickle
.
As yet we are still awaiting explanations as to why empty brass, wooden stocks, recurve bow, one reloading press (that seems to have vanished) and all those books and magazines on shooting subjects that were taken by the Police. Unless YOU can show me proof otherwise then these items are perfectly legal to own and possess yet it seems in my case I am NOT allowed to have such things.................................................... according to Lincolnshire Police anyway.
