Update about 'Scottish Government: To drop all proposals to licence airguns in Scotland

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

Apologies for the lack of updates in recent weeks. It would appear that Kenny MacAskill has his hands full with trying to do away with corroboration in the Scottish Justice system so his attempt to licence airguns would appear to be on the back burner just now. The threat is still there however with recent comments from the SSPCA trying to push for it to go through.

As some of you may know the organisation Firearms UK was formed after the popularity of this campaign. The aim was to continue positive action and encouraging greater teamwork within the shooting community.

Firearms UK has now created a new campaign entitled unity and is running a petition to HM Government to allow .22 rimfire pistols to be owned for competitive target shooting once more.

Although this petition is .22 rimfire pistols and these will not interest everyone the key word of the campaign is unity. I ask everyone who has signed this petition to continue working together and to also sign the firearms UK petition. We have a chance of making history with this and it will no doubt facilitate further positive change that will let us lobby for fairer gun laws in the UK.

Please visit this page for information on the Unity campaign http://firearmsuk.org/unity/

We need 10,000 signatures for a response and 100,000 to achieve debate in parliament. Firearms enthusiasts are over 1.5 million strong in the UK.

Let us all stand together and fight for our sports and hobbies/

Thank you.
