ICABS have recently had a petition and succeeded to have hunting and shooting magazines restricted to over 18's, and relegated to the top shelf along with porn in Eason's bookstores, please sign this petition to have it reversed, thanks.

Am i missing something, does the postion of a magazine on a rack really make much differance? Ok if you have rumage through spanking weekly then possibly so, iam more annoyed that most main stream news agents dont stock any shooting mags, best thing is to subscribe and pay half the cover price and get a free gift
Please someone enlighten me

Nothing against porn myself
I'd imagine a lot of people seeking their weekly hunting mag or shopping with their kids may be embarrassed to be standing rummaging through that section though, it's just a small point, the bigger issue being(not sure on British laws but) in Ireland you only have to be 14 to get a training cert for a firearm and 16 to obtain a firearms license so why have educational hunting and shooting mags a perfectly legal sport be restricted to over 18's, it's absurd, give'em an inch they'll take a mile.
