Luckily the two entities are nothing a like.
Just watched the Vid, good start look forward to seeing the rest and how they evolve as you get more used to being in front of the camera!
True, but like it or not the police do not like firearms being displayed on Social media for whatever reason. Maybe he has checked with the police and all is fine. :)
Beyond this, every instance is different but if you post pictures of yourself with your firearms on social media and someone can then search to work out your location then this is obviously unwise at best. Depending on the individual situation, carelessness on social media could lead to revocation as a breach of the conditions of your FAC as above as it could compromise your personal safety and security of the firearms.
I researched the situation ref English Shooting in some detail before we launched and I'm comfortable that the two are utterly different in terms of circumstances.
As for the police, well, you're right, their 'view' is that nothing firearms related should be seen, ever, but that doesnt support or grow our sport or our business so as long as we keep inside the law in terms of what we do there is nothing more to be said.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!
