    As I understand it you would need to get a B if you want to fire it regularly/ at all

    My C license says no functioning firearms the way I read it, happy to be corrected

    B means a min of 12 range visits a year and an unofficial limit of 12 pistols on your B (unlimited on C) but they stretch that for black powder in recognition that they aren't a primary homicide weapon of choice

    If you have your eye on a particular piece and you want someone to hold it for you drop me a pm - I don't have an interest in BP pistols but have room if you want someone to keep it for you for a while

    It'll usually take around 4 plus months to get your B in my experience and, as ever, when applying for ANY endorsement apply for AS MANY endorsements as possible - same price if you do two at once

    also another recommend on joining Antique Arms - nice bunch the few I've met
