Shooters with larger calibre rifles can now have their firearm certificates amended to include a new condition

A new condition for firearms certificates, which allows shooters with larger calibre rifles to shoot smaller pest species such as foxes, has been approved by the Association of Chief Police Officers Firearms and Explosives Licensing working Group. Anyone who requires their certificate condition to be amended should submit their certificates to their police force’s firearms licensing department.
