Derek Flint Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 4 hours ago, Non-Believer said: Which is ludicrous, Pava is not a lethal weapon, it's a temporary incapacitating agent. The legislation was presumably drafted by the same sort of people as our locals who'd try and classify fireworks as being high explosives in order to ban them? Completely OTT. Its not PAVA itself that is the issue, its the delivery system that makes it prohibited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek, it is threads such as this that your experience is valued. If you don't mind me saying, your input so far hasn't been particularly reassuring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
