John Appleby, firearms licensing manager for Warwickshire Police, said: "It's very disappointing that so few people have responded to this new legislation and it's also very puzzling.
"When you take into account that if found guilty of possessing this type of air weapon, the owner will face a minimum of five years in prison, their lack of action is absurd. There is still time to take positive action and I would urge owners to do so immediately!"
By Saturday May 1, owners of self-contained air-cartridge weapons must have either registered an application with the force or have handed it in at a police station.
Maybe agricola will drop buy and tell us why this is not as bad as it is.
I pity theses guys when the get caught. I really don't understand the system. Go on a drunken rampage, lead cops on a car chase and endanger countless lives? Week in jail and suspended license for a month. Got a unlicensed pellet gun? Five years in prison!
How did these people get to this point?
