Thread: Bolt security

Back in the day, I used to put the HT-lead in my pocket, then I progressed to a steering-wheel lock and only in the last 8yrs, vehicle insurance (which literally paid-off last year). I still use the St-whl-lock, cos I know crims will take the easiest-target unless stealing-to-order. I dont know how many pockets I've ripped from carrying a bolt, but a few. I was more interested in how-far, the letter-of-the Law was taken, and realise inoperative firearms can be used for crime, as can replicas, water-pistols and bluffing. I have heard of people having a Licence-suspension over "unattended" firearms that have been stolen. If I was The Plod, I'd be happy-as, that a Crim got an incomplete firearm, rather than a complete one. I'm sure there exists, some deviant individual, amassing "parts", for the chance of completing something ,but I Know that the vast majority(of incomplete ones) are thrown in rivers, according to Police I've spoken to...total stupidity..and waste. I guess as the average IQ continues to drop, we are only going to see more of it.. though, on a lighter-note, we could raise the IQ here,and in Australia, by sending a few back over the Ditch... ( in my defence, I do know ;2 Aussies, 4 Japanese, 5 Latvians, 1 and a half Russians, numerous boat-people and a Dwarf...just saying)
