This is just the beginning Yankee. Tell them to keep at it and they will have to legislate in the end.The reperesentative body of metal detecting, like the NCMD should follow this up. Nobody can stop it, just drive it underground

It's nice to see common sense prevailing, sometimes I think the arkies would like to schedule anything over 75 years old , oops! just thought Charles would that mean you would have to be kept in a museum?  Grin Grin

Oh Dear that doesnt sound very good does it.!

Just the tip of the iceberg regarding the anti detecting lobby and maybe things to come for us in the national press if it hasnt started already Ainsbrook and Nighthawking.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention Yankee
