    Got vetted tonight , was told ammo & bolts had to be locked away separate . He told me this on the phone call a week ago . I read the Arms regs and couldn't find anything to say as much , hence this thread . Anyhow I was compliant , put a lock on my ammo storage box . Im not sure about the bolt removing thing yet .

    That shit grinds my gears.

    Obviously being able to read legislation is not a requirement to becoming an arms officer.

    Im thinking Taff is probably right . Big changes coming in. (Even though not in legislation yet )
    And to be honest I had Ammo spread from "arsehole to breakfast " .
