Thread: Exactly how illegal is it to shoot C-Cat guns?

But then for house clearing and suchlike, I would want a PPSH. And grenades. Or better yet, a full and accommodating peace agreement.

No argument from me Carlsen Highway.

Fcuk me ! This thread should be quoted as an example for "making friends and influencing people"

I'm just an greying simple hunter & target shooter, so will toddle off to bed now

My point was more about it being illegal to own and or operate a firearm that requires such. It is simply illegal, there is no kind of legal situation whereby you can fire a fully auto weapon as a civilian.
The loading comment was more around training although multiple jams due to someone not really caring is pretty shit
