Tazza, I used to believe in registration but quickly learned it was the first step to confiscation, as we all found out. I could live with a life time licence till one showed they were unfit. Registration has never stopped, cured or prevented a crime, the law abiding will always do the right thing but criminals will not. I wonder how many licence holders realise they are on Police crim track because they are licenced. Maybe some day you will have to have a go at my 458 win mag it will help you appreciate your Beeman haha. Regards Stephen
