Thread: Firearms That Don't Need to be Handed In

This is a good topic - my Dad has a Beretta Xtrema 2 - named Beretta 391 Xtrema on buy-back list I think. It doesn't hold 6+ cartridges so doesn't need to be handed in.

We've seriously discussed handing it in however as we can imagine this scenario in future years - you come across an overly zealous cop who gets excited about catching someone with a "prohibited" firearm.

Common sense would say you simply demonstrate that the shotty can't hold 6+ cartridges, but the worst case scenario is the gun is confiscated, you get arrested and then spend allot of time, money and public reputation clearing your name from criminal conviction.

If people can't trust that there will be a robust and rationale way to prove that firearms aren't prohibited in the future, then the path of least resistance for some will be to simply hand over the firearm.

Govt + Police need to clear this up along with all the other issues already raised...
