Shooting news: firearms legislation, game shooting, conservation and countryside affairs
Shooting legislation, firearms law, game shooting news and countryside policy – ShootingUK covers it all, first and in depth. When a firearms bill moves through Parliament, when snaring regulations change, when a landmark legal ruling affects game shooters, deer stalkers or airgun owners, our dedicated news team reports it before anyone else.
We go direct to the people who shape the sport. BASC, the Countryside Alliance, leading gunsmiths, shoot managers, game dealers and the industry’s most respected voices all contribute comment and analysis built around the issues that matter to shooters, gamekeepers, landowners and fieldsports professionals across the UK.
Firearms licensing, lead ammunition, animal welfare legislation, conservation funding, rural crime – if it affects shooting, it is covered here.
ShootingUK is the only news source built entirely around the sport. Bookmark it.
