Has something changed? I've known both purchases and sales to and from NI by friends that have been no different to anywhere else in the country....
There is something different in the wording of the legislation regarding straight pull rifles in N/I and the rest of the U/K. I think the rifle i posted would be sec 5 in the rest of the UK.

That just about sums up our legislation in a nutshell, and even the fact that they (self loading) can be possessed in NI

They are straight pull not semi auto, but still can not be owned in the rest of the UK because of the way they have being converted from semi auto to straight pull, that is my understanding of it.

Have they had a new un ported barrel fitted.... if not then Sec5 here.
They have already been issued in the UK by the MOD serial numbers will be noted somewhere so they are classed as Sec5.
To be mainland legal, my understanding is they have to have never been issued here and imported as a parts kit, not a complete rifle.

"I don't know give him a ring if you are interested."
I already have a UK Sec1 rifle so do not need to call them. As you have posted the RFD details several times I thought you had all the relevant information about them and would be able to enlighten us on the mainland.
