[Mamyalynne]

I doubt that criminals using sawn-offs in their day to day occupation worry about the rules.

PS - I doubt he'll get us all.

Well done that passer by too.

[Peter Pedant]

I mean yeah but

[Mamyalynne]

Careless I agree.

Savage caught with firearm in London.

Struggling to find why this is news.

[youngmafbog]

Surely it is all part and parcel?

if you're going to follow a life of crime, it's never a good idea to draw attention to yourself in other ways - a lot of years ago one of our supervisors was alleged to be conducting an inappropriate relationship with his landlady's daughter. when the police went to have a chat with him about that, they found his premises stuffed with more railway kit than was on hand at the depot in Newton Heath.....

"Keep your shotgun in an appropriate case or cover whilst transporting it and place it out of sight, preferably in the locked boot or other secure load carrying area of the vehicle. You should never transport a loaded shotgun and the ammunition should ideally be stored separately again in a locked compartment hidden from plain sight. "

As we used to say in a Sec. Mod. I once worked in (inner-Halifax) 'It's a good job they are thick'. This, following the attempt by a 12-yr-old Pakistani boy of ours to pay for goods (including alcohol) at a local supermarket with a bank card he had found...... the name on it was something like 'John Smith'. :)

There was me thinking that calling shotgun was for the front passenger seat.

They were probably all community activists helping the locals make a grime record.
Completely harmless.
