The government intends to ban MARS / Lever release rifles through new legislation in the Offensive Weapons Bill. We have argued that these rifles are particularly suited to those shooters with physical limitation; this has been discounted by the Home Office on the basis that no evidence has been provided to support our assertion.

This information will be treated as strictly confidential; any reporting on the survey will be anonymised.

Yours
