Diana Mod. 48/52 pellet gun

[Sgt Striker]

OK, I'm not trying to sell this here, but I have a question if was to sell it at a gun show. It is over the 500 fps by quite a bit, so yes I know you need a PAL to buy it. What I was wondering is if I still need to do the confirmation with the CFC before the sale? (for an air gun...)

Diana 48 and 52 Velocity: .177 cal., 1150 fps, .22 cal., 850 fps.

I believe yes, you’ll need a verification number as it’s considered to be a firearm.

Thanks, that's what I figured, KRAP.... guess I won't bother taking it then.

Yes you need verification, legally.

Does verification mean the subject rifle/pistol would be deemed "registered"? Does the CFC ask for the air rifle's details like brand, barrel length, caliber?

no, (at this point) it is only a verification that the buyer holds a valid license.

No information about the actual gun is asked for or given.

I've read on this forum that 'some' Gov-reps have asked for 'details' AND that some members have GIVEN the info (foolish). Maybe they thought -or were told- they would be refused if they didn't give that info. If I were to be asked, I'd just hand up and re-dial to get a diff person.

If done online you don't talk to anyone.

Thanks for the info re: verification is not registration. Appreciate it, guys.
