When I surrendered my FAC, I was suddenly in the position where I had about 8000 rounds of .45"/.44"/9mm/.357"/7.62mm and 0.22". All were legal one day and illegal for me to own the next.

A quick call to Lancs firearms dept who had been brilliant issuing an extension to my certificate for the 10 months I was in China over the phone and I was able to drop them off.

The silly bits of the law as it stood was I was a reloader, I had the powder, primers, lead and cases to knock out a few thousand all legal to own, until you assemble them.
