Shooting Forum - Firearms licencing information

Ketron · 2011-05-06 20:32:01

Hey guys, just wondering what are the odds of seeing this on sale in Ireland? http://www.hk22rimfire.com/index.php?page=mp5-a5 Its comes with 10 round mags but would the fact it has a retractable stock make it hard to licence?

Irrespective of whether it looks like either AR/AK/HK/MKE/FN.... (you get the pic.... The point is that internally it will not look anything remotely like an assault rifle. If you take the rifle as a complete internal and external review you are looking at chalk and cheese. Such is the extent of there differences its like trying to compare a beetle to a porshe.... sure on an external view they look simular......

If a tricked out 10/22 is what you wanna use for shootin targets or bunnies then go for it (although the flasthider in the attached pic is a little overkill :P). So long as your magazines dont go past 10 rounds to turn it from not restricted to restricted.... you will be fine.
