From 22 September, owners of certain firearms previously regarded as antique will require a Firearm Certificate to retain possession

There are two important relaxations of the normal firearm certificate legislation in respect of former antique firearms. 

  • The owner will not need to demonstrate good reason for possession; and
  • A former antique firearm may be held on a Certificate without authority under Section 5
