I want one.

I think you should have guest days on these 7.3 shoots. :( :(

Question

As I understand it these pistols must stay at the range under lock and key. I imagine they let you clean them up first before turning them in.

Do you pay a fee each time you shoot or is it some kind of yearly fee?

Thats right Robert, Section 7-3 firearms have to be left at a designated 7-3 site, there are only a handful of these sites in the UK.

We have to clean the firearms after use and they are then returned to the armoury.

the Section 7-3 range days are strictly for 7-3 licence holders only, hence no guest days. (Sorry Dave)

if you fire these at the site is the ammo OK to own/posses/transport ? do you load your own - the mkIV is boar war vintage and still BP ? or did it cross over to smokeless - ive been reluctant to shoot mine with any commercial ammo

The ammo has to be loaded at the designated site or purchased there.

I load my own and that particular load consisted of a Silvalube 265g RNHB bullet over 3.5g Bullseye in Value .455 cases and CCI large pistol primers.
