    Default Licensing of rifle action????

    Hi there
    Does anyone know if one is required to license a separate rifle action? Say for example I want to buy a M98 Mauser action for a future custom rifle, do I need to apply for a license? Any comment will be appreciated.

    The act requires barrels, frames and receivers to be licenced. I think the action needs to be licenced.

    And if I already have another M98 actioned rifle, can I say it is spares for the same rifle?

    No. Just like I can't have another frame for my glock as a spare.

    You could have a spare bolt though.

    I someone has a spare action, frame slide etc that he may have had since pre FCA then were they supposed to license it since the FCA came into effect.
