Flare Pistol

[Russell]

but what happened 2 all the guns which were surrendered ? If they were going 2 b scrapped then they would have been thrown in a skip when u handed them in, instead of being neatly stacked and and the police asking u if u still had the original box and manual......

<font color=blue>OK I now have the griff. Until 1998 a British registered vessel was allowed to have firearms without a licence but needed a licence to take the firearm ashore for any reason such as maintenance. Since the law was revised in 1997 this 'right' was withdrawn with effect of 1998. There is however a provision made for 'signalling equipment' such as a Flare Pistol for which a licence will be granted free of charge. Thats it very much in a nutshell.

Wonder if someone is going to try and describe an assault rifle as a signalling device? *lol*
