I'm thinking this would make an excellent christmas present to upgrade a nephew from his red rider. He is not yet of age to get his own PAL, but is currently doing very well on his air cadet range team and I'd like him to be practise with his own gun that actually goes bang.
What is the legal status of this gun?It is a firearm when equiped with 209 primer unit, not a firearm if using No 11 caps,
I understand it doesn't have a cartridge and is muzzleloading, Correct
but like other percussion muzzleloaders, I would presume it is either a firearm or not based on the muzzle velocity. Correct, also see above....
Can anyone confirm or deny that this is a firearm that requires registration and a person with a PAL to own it? See above....
