This may be old news to you all but I have been out of country & not able to keep in touch so my apologies.
Just been informed that another collector/seller (ex ebay & recent SA) has had his collection confiscated, PC removed etc.
Waiting to hear as to the reason that initiatted this raid.
As someone who has been raided due to a stupid mistake on my part but was left with collection & a `local record` I am getting a bit worried.
My collection is not very big & may not have much intrinsic value outside our small circle but I would be mortified to loose it as well as out of pocket!
Is there anyone out there (UK only please) in the know as to where we stand with our hobby from a legal point of view. Should I be looking at getting a FAC to cover my collection/collecting?
I have a shotgun licence a `local record`that did not prevent its renewal & a bit of a rapport with the local firearms officer. No other record apart from Military misdemeanors!
Thanks in advance & apologies again if going over old ground - but a bit concerned:tinysmile_cry_t4:
