Yobs giving us a bad name again.

Wed Feb 18, 2015 5:17 pm

Have a look at the Daily Express story below about the misuse of air guns which can only do damage to our sport and give more people the impression that all air gunners are the same whether they are responsible users of air guns or not. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/558247 ... al-welfare

How much more illegal can you make something that's already illegal.

They mention "School holidays" but anyone of school age cannot have unsupervised possession of an airgun in a public place. Perhaps they don't understand the law.

As both a shooter and cat lover I can't think of a penalty severe enough for those who commit such crime.
As far as I'm aware, any form of hunting with a crossbow is illegal in the U.K.,do they really have any legitimate use in this country?.

its disgusting how some braindead stump could find it fun to shoot someones pet :oops:

just read what the vet said " airguns should be banned,,, full stop"

only takes a few bad apples to ruin it for law abiding safe shooters ...... theres thousands and thousands more attacks where people get hurt every day due to alcahol ....... perhaps they should ban THAT full stop too ...... 8-)
ONE SHOT .... ONE KILL
