not 100% but i think that needs a licence

zen260 · 24-10-2010, 17:59

yes thats right

bunny shooter · 24-10-2010, 20:01

What reason would/did you give Gardai to licence that?

I don't think it's legal to hunt with so that leaves target work.............where allows that?

There are target shooting competitions using crossbow bunny; one of the WTSC air rifle regulars is the Irish national champion at the moment (and has a few gold medals from previous years tucked away in his sock drawer). You're very correct about the hunting - it's utterly illegal to hunt any animal in Ireland with a bow of any kind.

The OP's crossbow definitely does require a firearms licence; and in fact, requires a restricted licence, so you have to apply to the chief super for the licence.

Where do these comps take place? Never knew there was a national champion

And I thought shooting was a clandestine sport

I'm not sure where Bunny, the crossbow stuff really is very small compared to recurve or compound archery in Ireland - though I hear that the Irish crossbow team out of Athboy do pretty well, having won the world championships in 2005 (1st place individual, 2nd place team), and having set several records.
