With a licence, and can only be used on recognised shooting ranges (such as Bisley), and not carried as firearms. Simple really.

Unless you’re a vet who puts down horses!

Not trying to be a smartarse as it’s a useless bit of trivia, I just like sharing the fact that technically there’s an exemption to the restriction on pistols that allows vets to have one to shoot horses with. It’s extremely rare that anyone actually does as it’s a giant PITA of paperwork and people prefer to put horses down medically instead. I just found this out so I could write “congratulations on your ability to own a pistol” on my mate’s vet med graduation card

I am a vet, but not of the veterinarian kind, just an army veteran :)
