Thread: Blocking up a semi-auto

They've also taken aim at "sniper" rifles. I'm picking your .338's and above will be gone too, possibly smaller calibers that sit around that ballpark too perhaps? All speculation till the govt. puts it to paper though so just a waiting game for us all.

Got a link to where you saw that on the parliament website?

Police website isn't law, and since they have got the wrong information on their main FAQ page, I'm not not convinced they have a legal backing to stop you disabling a firearm.
