FAC

Tue Apr 21, 2015 1:33 pm

I don't have a FAC so im pretty dumb on the rules and stuff. but a guy I know has a 18ftlbs .177 mk4 daystate for sale cheap. now as I don't have a FAC I know I cant own and shoot the gun but could I buy the gun and take it to a shop and get the power turned down to sub 12ftlbs.

This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me my rifle is useless. Without my rifle, I am useless.

I ment I know I cant own the gun at 18ftlbs. I just wanted to know if I could get the power knocked down to under 12lbs. I only asked because I know you can get a 12ftlbs rifle up rated to FAC. so I wondered if you could go the other way.

There used to be a few Forces that would allow an FAC air rifle to come off ticket. The majority would not. Now that all FAC's are on a National Record I don't think anyone would allow it.

Don't forget the legislation say's "Capable" of more than 12FPE and any FAC air rifle has certainly demonstrated that it is.

You say this rifles cheap, there's a reason for that :lol:

Stay away (It's a Daystate anyway)
