Just curious, what calibres/quantities we talking here? I love playing with old or obsolete ammo, been doing it for decades. Happy to take it if your contactable and I know all the appropriate means of recycling components, Cheers.


Not talking much at all - mostly damaged ammo or stuff I wouldn't dream of shooting.

Not that there is anything to "worry" about with handing it into the Police, only thing I believe is that you're surrendering dangerous goods or some such and have to do forms and sign of stuff, blah blah, can be a bit of a process.

If you can just had to an RO at the SSAA range next time you're there it would be a time saver.


OH - didn't realise you had to sign forms and go through a whole lot of paperwork. Bonfire sure is sounding simpler now. :lol:

Are they hand loads or factory ammo? I usually take factory ammo I no longer want/need because I've sold the gun, back to my local gunshop and he puts a price on it and we do trade for something I do need/want.

I haven't handed in any myself but have read the same in an old topic here.

You don't just drop it on the counter and go apparently.

....no, they ask for your firearm licence so they can record that you have such an excess of ammo that you ran out of appropriate storage room at home..... :)

Re: Cornflakes

My uncle drowned in a vat of whiskey at the distillery. His mates tried to save him, but he fought them off bravely. They cremated him. Took three days to put out the fire.
