FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SHOTGUNS
Yes, all shotguns for sale at Solware comply with UK legislation. Typically, these are shotguns that meet section 2 requirements: single, double, or bolt-action models with barrel lengths of at least 24 inches, overall length exceeding 40 inches, and non-detachable magazines. We carefully source only legal models from trusted manufacturers like Browning, Beretta, and Winchester. Whether your shoot involves sporting clays, hunting, or target practice, we ensure your shotgun purchase is lawful and reliable. Our team is always available to explain licensing needs, storage guidelines, and help you choose a shotgun that meets both your shooting needs and legal obligations.
To own a shotgun, you must obtain a Shotgun Certificate (SGC) from your local police force. Requirements include being over 18, having a safe bolted to your home that meets security standards, and passing a background check. Unlike firearm licences, the SGC process is more streamlined—though the police may still refuse if they deem there’s a safety risk. Once licensed, you can possess as many shotguns as you can securely store. Solware supports new customers through the certificate process by offering guidance on necessary documentation and safe storage advice. We're here to ensure your shotgun ownership is both legal and responsible.
Yes, you can browse and order shotguns for sale online, but UK law requires that the final handover happens in person through a registered firearms dealer (RFD). Solware handles the paperwork and delivery to an RFD near you for safe inspection and collection. This ensures compliance with legal regulations and makes your purchase secure. Whether you're purchasing a sporting, hunting, or target-shooting shotgun, we deliver a seamless experience from order to collection. Our team will guide you step-by-step to ensure your shotgun arrives safely and stays fully compliant with UK laws.
Different shotgun styles suit different activities. Over-and-under or side-by-side shotguns are classic choices for clay shooting and upland game due to their balance and quick handling. Bolt-action or pump-action models, available from Solware, offer versatility and ease of loading—perfect for pest control or game shooting across rough terrain. Semi-automatics can offer faster follow-up shots when hunting. We stock a wide range of shotguns for sale to meet varied preferences—from lightweight sporting configurations to rugged work models. Our experts can help you compare actions, fits, and shot patterns to find the right shotgun for your intended use and comfort level.
Proper maintenance begins with correct storage. A securely bolted gun safe that meets P.S.S. standards is essential for legal compliance and safety. Store your shotgun unloaded, with ammunition in a separate locked container. Regular maintenance includes cleaning the barrel, action, and metal parts after use, and applying light oil to prevent rust. Solware sells cleaning kits, storage cases, and maintenance tools tailored for shotguns. We also offer advice on seasonal care—like preventing condensation in gun cabinets during cooler months. With the right storage and maintenance habits, your shotgun remains safe, reliable, and long-lasting.
Absolutely! Solware offers full-circle support beyond the initial purchase. We provide spare parts, choke tubes, gun stocks, recoil pads, and cleaning supplies tailored to shotguns. If you need assistance with setup, sighting, or technical handling, our knowledgeable team is ready to help. We can also advise on upgrades or fitting improvements based on your shooting preferences.
