*AIRGUN NEWS*
Hot off the press from The Gun Trade Association.
Following last year's consultation on Firearms Safety, today the Government issued its response. The headlines are:
Airguns are not to be licensed, nor will the exemption for 14-17 year olds possessing airguns on private land with consent be removed.
'Reasonable precautions' for the safe storage of airguns will be clarified. This will require locking an airgun out of sight when not in use if under-18s are on the premises and keeping ammunition separately.
The Government will work with the Trade to improve the safe keeping and handling of airguns, to ensure that home security devices are supplied with all new airguns, and that dealers explain the importance of secure handling and storage to purchasers of new airguns at the point of sale.
