Bluecow has summed it up very well.
To the clowns that say gun's aren't allowed or you need a game licence dream on and get back to your xbox 360.
To carry a firearm in a park in London would attract the attention of an armed response unit in 10 seconds flat. Don't do it or you'll become a Yahoo headline!Can you legally shoot pidgeons, rabbits and squirrels on common land?
Common land does not mean that it is owned by the public, but it could be. There is always a landowner. Common land (to oversimplify) means that villagers have a right to graze their animals there, and certain other rights.
Squirrels are vermin. Wild birds are protected. Rabbits can be taken by the landowner or person authorised by him or her. The occupier of the land can authorise only one person other than himself to take game on the land with a firearm. A game licence is required.
The game laws are much more complicated than this, and it is worth reading a book on them.
Squirrel in most places is considered game, and has a season U need a license,rabbit is a varmint,and can be hunted anytime,still need a license, pigeon I am not sure.You need owners permission to hunt or shoot on there land, and only shoot it if you intend to eat it or it is destroying your property,in this case try to live trap it first and move it elsewhere
NO, coz common land means its not private land, the law states it very clear that you must have permission from the land owner before you shoot.
Where? Hunting law vary from place to place. In a lot of places you need a hunting licence of some sort to shoot varmints and small game.
I think you need a gun license but those animals dont have rights unfortunatley, but why would you do that anyways its cruel!
Bert says - Pidgeon?
Ernie says - You live in England. NO GUNS ALLOWED!
