I shoot clays (no puns intended) occasionally and getting more hooked. I normally shoot long range target 600m,1000m and pistol comps. I’m ex forces shooting team. Give me any firearm and 10 rounds to zero and I’m good to compete  |

How about a non maintained mosin with a shot out muzzle and some 1940s surplus 7.62x57r |

Ha ha I’d be more worried about a shot through barrel than muzzle. |

Legally you are allowed to own a pistol as long as either you have a Section 5 for humane dispatch in which the pistol can be un modified. If owning on a normal license then the barrel has to be 12” long OR overall length no less than 24”. Muzzle loaders are exempt |

There are illegal firearms, they don't have to comply with any laws and regulations.  |

If the muzzle and crown are fucked you ain't hitting anything, unless you counterbore of course |

Highly unlikely to get section 5 for humane dispatch. Usually a 2 shot revolver or .410 pistol held on section 1. |

They don't tend to hold illegally possessed comps though |

Target shooting has to either be with section 1 long barrel revolver, long barrel pistol or muzzle loader which does include modern frame and barrel but the cylinder is loaded instead of using awlf contained cartridge, section 5 authority is rarely granted to us common folk so almost pointless mentioning it, section 7 is another way but this is only really for research and is heritage pistol authority.

"It would be much more fun if the clays could shoot back. "
They don’t shoot back … but they do fight back!
…. I’ve seen head and facial injuries a few times when shooters get hit by shards of broken clays! |
