I have always wondered what is stopping English airgunners (and Canadian) from just modifying their "legal" guns to be over 12fpe/500fps.

For the same reason that you don't use silencers without a permit, any air rifle over 12 flb is classed as a firearm and if you don't have a licence then it's five years banged up in jail.

So if you just get your FAC, you can freely change your energy levels and not worry? |

Not any longer I gave it up when they banned powder burning pistols, I find an airifle at 12 flb has enough power for what I want these days.
