      Couldn’t have said it better. My friend is serving 10 years for conversion of firearms. I was involved at the very start. Due to just coming back from Afghanistan. I didn’t realise how illegal firearms was. Just didn’t think they would come for a guy like me. Ex SFSG. Many many shots on target myself. A lot of doors kicked in for this country. (If you can say that anymore). If it wasn’t for my wife saying you’re being stupid. Get away. Bla bla. I stopped out of respect. 4 months later he’s taken down by terror squad and served 10 years. I get a knock from them too. Told them what my initial intentions was. They said you so lucky you never converted and just had the blank firers. Took two glock 17 blanks away from me and that was that. Very very very lucky. No matter your experience with said firearms They are still illegal. Even for someone who used them on the daily. In anger. On operations. Overseas. Keep away from all of this. No good at all. If you like guns. Go to USA and become a citizen.
