I think it would be a good idea to pop into the welcome section first to introduce yourself to the rest of the members.... then ask a moderator nicely for the password

I was doing a bit of research on these liscenses and found this slightly worrying paragraph on the Durham Police website.
Shooters should acquaint themselves with The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (WCA) and particular note should be made of the restriction imposed by Section 5, which makes it an offence to use an automatic or semi-automatic weapon which has a magazine capacity of more than two rounds, to kill any wild bird. The definition also encompasses Section 1 (Firearms Act 1968 as amended) pump-action and semi-automatic shotguns, and any rifles whether bolt-action, pump-action or semi-automatic, with such magazines, including air weapons.
I can't find it now but there is an exception for pest species.
