Thread: E cat question

@Kscott

You can put down any reason you like on your E Endorsement application.

I always add "And Any Other Lawful Purpose"

I've had an E endorsement since inception and have never had any issues.

Others I know have had a few surprise inspections.

Cheers
Pete

Thought so.

But still he sounded so sure that he believed the malarkey that was coming out of his mouth

As in they only want a certain number.

He also when on to say that all the people that applied for their e-cat endorsement after the pistol grip saga don't really have a "real" e-cat, it's only permitted to change over their existing firearms because of the law change. A.K.A if they want to apply for a permit to procure and purchase a new e-cat firearm, they can't...

Please tell me for the love of God, that this is aaabbb-sol-ute bollllucks.

Did you ask when his new line of flying pigs is due in?

I struggled to hold my composure to be honest, ended up laughing at him lol

One of the actions that the Police might try to insist on but there is no legal standing for it I can see. ie Just read the law and regs, be great if you can spot such a clause for me as I cannot find it.

What were you doing in GunCity to start with, its owned by a crim.

there is what is known as libel and slander, better not to go there.

To put it into perspective before people get too upset, a 'criminal' can be used to describe someone who has a criminal conviction by the courts, which David Tipple openly acknowledges he has. Ergo, the statement, a 'crim', is factually correct and not slanderous nor libelous

Hell, my father was one of the cops who came to see him after he threatened some skinheads with a shotgun after they broke the aerial off his car.

To bring a successful defamation prosecution you would have to prove what is being said is a false statement AND it is detrimental to peoples view of your character which I dont think is occuring in this instance.

Of course he's referring to Tipple, who else has spent time in a US prison?

Yeah it won't fly, don't worry

At the end of the day it won't affect my pocket if they did, but under current slander/defamation law it could affect this forum.

What are you, a GC staff member?

There are far worse website forum discussions on other hunting and fishing sites regarding that company. One where even GC replied.
So why don't you go and read those for fun.

Nah, but you are starting to make a mountain out of a mole hill though.

Actually yes you are. You're extrapolating a statement that is factually accurate when dealing with the generalisation it was presented in.

The majority shareholder of a business can sometimes be referred to as "the owner" even though there are multiple shareholders.

Wtf guys
