Does your club hold an RFD ticket?

[majordisorder]

Just wondering if any other clubs out there have an RFD ticket to try and take advantage of cheaper sources of ammunition and guns?

[ovenpaa]

No club RFD but a few RFD's in the club so there are usually some very good deals available

Yeah our club is also an RFD so we have a large range of ammo but not always the cheapest but the owner can normally get guns from other RFD's at trade prices, i got my M & P 15-22, scope, mounts and mags at cost.

Is your club a business then or a not-for-profit / members club? Our club is looking at getting a ticket too and I just wondered what others experiences were.

Our Club Secretary and the club treasurer are both registered fire arms dealers.(RFD)

I think it's described as both on their website, the owner says the range does not make a profit, he makes his money from running maritime armed guard courses and other ventures he's got going, I think the members fees just cover the staff costs, the rfd bit i think is because he sells the tsc 1911 lbp and he haw a small shop for members really which should get bigger and better when the 100 m range is finished.

No RFD but we do have a FAC cert in the clud secs name and Clubs addy to buy ammo in qty with conditions, we have NO club guns.

[Andy632]

No but quite a number of RFDs as members.

If the club has an RFD, then it almost certainly will be treated by HMRC as a business - with all the attendant costs and administration. Most clubs can remain as a charity, even if they sell ammunition or charge fees for events (has be to members only, so that no "profit" is made from external parties).
