Well I've waded through pages of legislation and looked on other forums and I've still had no luck with this one - what is the legislation surrounding the use and transport of nunchucks and other MA weapons in the UK?!?!?!?


If ANYONE knows anything can they post it please, I would really appreciate input!

I dont know about English Law but in Scotts Law if you can prove its for sport/recreation/work you wont be in any trouble for carrying nunchucks

If you have any doubts about transporting these things, put them in a bag or some other carrying case, and stuff them in your trunk.

Its an offence to carry any weapon in a public place but you can readily buy nunchaku from loads of places so I guess they would fall under the law that allows you to transport them between home and training in a closed bag if they are intended for recreational use.
