Thats not what I highlighted. I highlighted Two points.
1. The VCRA defence is all about the ownership of an IF and a RIF - Wrong. There is nothing in the VCRA about ownership. It concerns Import, Manufacture and Sale
2. manufacturing a RIF, which is not covered by the defence - It is,
It shall be a defence in proceedings for an offence under section 36 of the 2006 Act or under paragraph 4 of Schedule 2 to that Act for the person charged with the offence to show that his conduct was for the purpose only of making the imitation firearm in question available for one or more of the purposes specified in paragraph (2).
(2) Those purposes are—
(a)the organisation and holding of permitted activities for which public liability insurance is held in relation to liabilities to third parties arising from or in connection with the organisation and holding of those activities;
(b)the purposes of display at a permitted event.
