    Looks like if you had the Enhanced licence it wouldn't come with conditions, so if you got it as part of a service rifle club you could also do pest control.

    Wow. This means they want to bring back E cat as it was, not just a slightly widened P endorsement as I was expecting. It's hard to imagine much buy in to that idea from the anti-gun nutters (both public and MPs). Given the large number of people who used E cat and also those who were happy to use semi autos on A cat, I'd expect 100,000 applications for the new category in the first year. This will get interesting.
    BSA, Fatberg and STC like this.
