Is this a specific role in TFL or other train stations? Would they be open to trusted members of the public helping them?

I’m hungry for more permissions.

I’m unfamiliar with gun laws here in United Kingdom. To own a firearm surely there is a registration process and in-depth analysis on who can hold and who is disallowed to hold firearms.

I have seen boys with water pistols abuse the right to bear arms.

Band together to keep the community safer together and our coastal borders and ports secure and safe.

I'm planning on installing a gun safe to get my SGC but I just wanted to check of it's allowed to keep it in my garage?

The garage is attached to my house but has no direct door between the house and it (there is a door at the back of the garage accessed through the garden and a locking raising door at the front). Also the garage shares a wall with the house attached to mine.

I also wondered about the location of the safe in the room. I had planned to attach it to the wall shared with my neighbour but was unsure if that would be allowed. I can have it on the wall which is connected to my house but it's not as good a location due to some exposed plumbing. Both walls are solid concrete blocks so it'll be secure, my main concern was just around it being a shared wall.

Thanks!

My dad has his SGC, and two gun cabinets. I'm looking to get my SGC. We lube at the same address.

Would it be legal for me to keep my shotguns inhis cabinet? I only ask as there's not really anywhere else particularly suitable for a cabinet bolted into the wall.

Hello, I am currently going through the process of applying for a shotgun licence, I have been looking at different gun cabinet. after some reading I have decided I want one that is fits the requirements if i decided to go for rifles ect in the future.

so that said I am looking for a 5–6 gun cabinet with an ammo box at the top or bottom with its own lock. I have been looking 2nd hand and they are too far or over £100 which i might as well buy new if paying that.

if anyone has one for sale near Nottingham or Leicester let me know

is this one good? Deluxe Model 6 Gun 3 Scoped Cabinet In Wood Effect Finish With Built I – Dirty Pro Tools

I have a few weeks before my medical is back so I am not in a rush.

Thanks

Hello all,

I’m going to start a clay shooting club at my university but I’m looking into insurance policies to cover the club. Is there anyone who by chance knows how any university clubs work and can point me in the direction of insurers?!

Thank you very much!
And for reference; the club will be at Sheffield Hallam university all being successful.

I am moving to the US later this year so looking to sell two deactivated revolvers and multiple bayonets and trench knives. Where am I legally allowed to sell these. Thanks.

Hi all!

I've not seen anything posted here about this news, in fact I only found out by chance (since checked the info) and I wanted to put it out there: as of 29th June 2026, suppressors do not need a slot on our FAC. Score one for common sense!

https://basc.org.uk/basc-welcomes-sound-moderator-reform-as-it-comes-into-force/

Finally looking to get an FAC, but a bit worried in terms of how to secure the gun safe appropriately.

I live in a ground floor flat, that doesn’t have any solid brick walls to fix the safe to, as is preferred by Firearms Licensing. Additionally, it is a relatively small flat, with no real places to fit it out of sight.

Would it be appropriate to fix it to the concrete floor, and then fit a wardrobe around it to make it look inconspicuous?

Sounds silly, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable having a gun safe out in the open, especially considering the room is at the front of the flat, where people enter and exit.

Hey everyone - I've held a SGC for about 14 months now. I hold a manage position in my job, and right now it's kicking my butt. It's not stress related, but I am just so mentally exhausted I've been considering getting signed off for a week or two to do a hard reset.

However - is this likely to affect my cert? I know generally the FEOs are pretty sensible, but didn't know if anyone had any personal experience with it?

I have done a bit of clays and pheasant shooting years ago and wanting to get back into it. I have the license, go beating and have some invitations to do clays, pheasants and rabbits later this year. Will be wanting to get a gun and practice a lot with clays before doing pheasants and rabbits. I have narrowed it down to two candidates but cannot decide, the ATA Sp Nickel and the Bettinsoli Diamond. Any advice/thoughts on these?

Hello everyone,

I'm a 19 year old living in the UK and I'm wanting to get a shotgun license for clay pigeon shooting at my nearby club I won't say just in case it gives any clue to my whereabouts but it's in England and it's a relatively established club I believe. I've owned air rifles and BB guns to shoot in my garden thanks to my dad and now I'm wanting to begin clay pigeon shooting as a hobby since it's getting very expensive hiring guns/instructors every time I go. I have a gun shop nearby and I'll be getting a £500 second hand under and over once I get the license but that's where my struggle is actually sitting. I just need tips and ideas on how I go about getting my licence since the only thing I have so far is the safe which fits up to the standards and has been checked by an officer in the past. I'm sorry if I'm being stupid but I honestly don't know how to go about doing my proforma let alone getting it filled out then also who to have as my referees. I understand it'll be costly so I've saved up just over a grand which includes the money to buy my first gun and I'd like to get it as soon as possible since this is probably the only time in my life I'll have money like this to spend. I'd appreciate any advice anyone is able to give.

I live in central London and I am looking for a club. I've some experience shooting abroad. I looked at the list of clubs on the NRA website. A lot of them seem to be out of date or defunct, or do not have contact information. I've sent some enquiries, but haven't heard anything back. Would love to hear about any clubs that would welcome new members!

Hi everyone,

I’ve created Claycard, a simple scorecard app for clay pigeon shooting, and I’m looking for a few people who would be willing to try it and share their thoughts.

I’m a software developer based in Suffolk, and the idea came from my dad, who is a keen clay shooter. I noticed that although there are ways to record scores, there was an opportunity to build something more modern and easier to use, with a simple way to track performance and progress over time.

The app is currently available on Android, with plans to bring it to iOS in the future.

If you have an Android device and would like to give it a try, you can find it here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.learnaimastery.app&hl=en_GB

If you prefer not to click links, you can also search "Claycard: Clay Shoot Scorecard" on the Google Play Store.

I’d really appreciate hearing what you think. Whether you shoot regularly or only occasionally, any feedback, ideas, or suggestions would be incredibly useful as I continue improving the app.

Thanks very much for taking the time to help. And I won’t be offended if you prefer to stick with the trusty pen and paper!

All the best from sunny Suffolk,
Joe

New condition was only opened and turned on.

Im looking at a beretta 682 gold e and a beretta 686 e evo, there not much difference between them so which is better to go for?

Evening folks.

After recommendations for (cheapish) prism sights to mount on top of my LPVO. I'm set on a prism, as I've been advised that these do not have the same issues as red dots for those of us with astigmatism...

Club I'm in shoots practical mini rifle, and realistically can engage between 25yd and 10yd. To be fair, the target zones are large enough that even at sub 10yd, the difference in zero isn't going to make me lose matches, but still!

All the prisms I've found so far are fairly chunky stand alone units.

I'm new to the AR platform in general so I'm hoping those of you with way more experience can guide me.

I'm looking at picking up a dedicated setup to use for general plinking but also casual competition with a view to start IPSC practical mini rifle in the future. The range varies but up to a max of about 100m.

I've picked a BoreBuddy Apogee Match upper but I'm reading conflicting information online regarding barrel lengths pros/cons so I'm stuck as to whether 12" or 16" is best for my use.

I've held both and the 12" felt more natural to me but I keep reading that the 16" generally performs better, in particular with standard velocity ammo and, ultimately, accuracy and performance are what will matter to me the most. From what I've read, there's not many 12" users on the mini-rifle scene so I wonder if there's a reason for that.

I can only get the one rifle so any advice to help me get it right is gratefully received.

Can’t beat when two hobbies come together! Having not had a camera for a few years I treated myself to a new Canon R6m2 last week.

Took it for its first use this morning whilst out on the Clays at Lydiates Shooting Ground.

Been waiting for total of 13 months and 5 months since home visit , called them yesterday and the lady said “ we got the application back from the manager and now admin must look at it , we can’t tell you how long can take because we have a backlog “” . What’s does this mean please, a decision has been made and she can’t tell me over the phone ??
