In this Act “convention proof mark” means any mark, sign or character of which a specimen is for the time being included in the register of proof marks published by the Permanent International Commission for the Proof of Small Arms established under a Convention done at Brussels on Ist July 1969 (in this section and in sections 130 and 131 of this Act referred to as “the register”), not being a mark, sign or character included therein as a United Kingdom proof mark. The Proof Master of each of the Two Companies shall keep at the Proof House a copy of the register for the time being in force, together with copies of any documents published by the Permanent International Commission amending that register; and the copy or copies so kept shall be open for public inspection without charge at all reasonable times. The Proof Masters of the Two Companies respectively shall from time to time, by advertisement published—
Subject to subsections (5) and (6) below, a barrel (wherever manufactured) bearing a convention proof mark shall, if the mark was lawfully impressed upon the barrel in accordance with the law applicable in the State to whose official Proof House the mark is attributed by the register, be exempt from liability to proof under this Act. Subject to subsections (4), (5) and (6) below, a barrel which would at any time have been liable to proof under this Act but for subsection (1) above shall not cease to be exempt from liability to proof under this Act, so long as it continues to bear the mark, sign or character by virtue of which it was so exempt under subsection (1), by reason only of the fact that the mark, sign or character in question has since ceased to be a convention proof mark. No offence shall be committed under this Act— The Proof Masters of the Two Companies, acting jointly, may by notice published as mentioned in section 129(3) of this Act withdraw any exemption continuing by virtue of subsection (2) above by reference to any mark, sign or character described in the notice, either generally or in relation to any class or description of barrels bearing the mark, sign or character in question. If a barrel of one sort which is exempt under subsection (1) above from liability to proof under this Act by virtue of any mark, sign or character impressed upon it is in the United Kingdom converted into a barrel of another sort, the barrel shall cease to be so exempt by virtue of that mark, sign or character from the time when the conversion is begun. If a barrel which is exempt under subsection (1) or (2) above from liability to proof under this Act by virtue of any mark, sign or character impressed upon it is in the United Kingdom, by any process of manufacture or by any other means except user and wear and tear, so reduced in substance or strength that the mark, sign or character does not represent the proof which the barrel would bear if it were then duly proved in the official Proof House of the State in question, the barrel shall thereupon cease to be so exempt by virtue of that mark, sign or character.
Subject to subsection (2) below, in any proceedings for an offence under this Act it shall be for the defendant or, in Scotland, the accused to show that any exemption under section 130 of this Act is applicable to the case. Subject to subsection (3) below, a person shall not be convicted of an offence under this Act by virtue of any withdrawal of exemption under section 130(4) of this Act unless it is shown that he knew at the time when the offence is alleged to have been committed that the exemption had been withdrawn. Subsection (2) above does not apply in any case where the defendant or, in Scotland, the accused was at the time when the offence is alleged to have been committed a gun maker or gun barrel maker, or a maker of or dealer in small arms or barrels, or in any parts for small arms or barrels. For the purposes of any proceedings for an offence under this Act a document purporting to be a copy of the register or of any document published by the Permanent International Commission amending the register shall be evidence (and, in Scotland, sufficient evidence) of the contents of the register at any time on or after the date on which the document in question purports to be published.
Section 1(2).
Subject to sub-paragraph (2) below, this Schedule applies to a barrel if— This Schedule shall cease to apply to any barrel if at any time after the passing of this Act the mark, sign or character by virtue of which it was immediately before the passing of this Act exempt under section 132 of the Act of 1868 from the provisions of that Act becomes a convention proof mark.
Subject to the following provisions of this paragraph, a barrel to which this Schedule applies shall be exempt from liability to proof under the Act of 1868 so long as it continues to bear the mark, sign or character by virtue of which it was immediately before the passing of this Act exempt under section 132 of that Act from the provisions of that Act; and accordingly no offence shall be committed under that Act in respect of or by reference to any such barrel by virtue of the fact that it has not been proved under that Act or the Gun Barrel Proof Act 1855. The Proof Masters of the Two Companies, acting jointly, may by notice published— withdraw any exemption continuing under this Schedule by reference to any mark, sign or character described in the notice, either generally or in relation to any class or description of barrels bearing the mark, sign or character in question. If a barrel of one sort which is exempt under this Schedule from liability to proof under the Act of 1868 by virtue of any work, sign or character impressed upon it is in the United Kingdom converted into a barrel of another sort, the barrel shall cease to be so exempt by virtue of that mark, sign or character from the time when the conversion is begun. If a barrel which is exempt under this Schedule from liability to proof under the Act of 1868 by virtue of any mark, sign or character impressed upon it is in the United Kingdom, by any process of manufacture or by any other means except user and wear and tear, so reduced in substance or strength that the mark, sign or character does not represent the proof which the barrel would bear if it were then duly proved in the official Proof House of the State in question, the barrel shall thereupon cease to be so exempt by virtue of that mark, sign or character.
The Proof Master of each of the Two Companies shall continue to keep the register of foreign proof marks kept before the passing of this Act under section 129 of the Act of 1868 (in this Schedule referred to as “the former register”), as it had effect immediately before the passing of this Act; and the former register shall continue to be open for public inspection without charge at all reasonable times at the Proof House of each of the Two Companies. The reference in paragraph (14) of section 121 of the Act of 1868 to any stamp or mark, or any part of any stamp or mark of a foreign country, registered by either of the Two Companies under the Gun Barrel Proof Act 1855 or under the Act of 1868, shall continue to be construed as referring to registration in the former register, and the reference in paragraph (6) of section 138 of the Act of 1868 to the register of foreign proof marks shall continue to be construed as a reference to the former register; but a person shall not by virtue of this sub-paragraph and paragraph 6(2) of Schedule 3 to this Act be liable to be punished twice under section 121 of the Act of 1868 for the same offence.
Subject to sub-paragraph (2) below, in any proceedings for an offence under the Act of 1868 it shall be for the defendant or, in Scotland, the accused to show that any exemption under this Schedule is applicable to the case. Subject to sub-paragraph (3) below, a person shall not be convicted of an offence under the Act of 1868 by virtue of any withdrawal of exemption under paragraph 2(2) above unless it is shown that he knew at the time when the offence is alleged to have been committed that the exemption had been withdrawn. Sub-paragraph (2) above does not apply in any case where the defendant or, in Scotland, the accused was at the time when the offence is alleged to have been committed a gun maker or gun barrel maker, or a maker of or dealer in small arms or barrels, or in any parts for small arms or barrels. For the purposes of any proceedings for an offence under the Act of 1868 the former register kept by the Proof Master of either of the Two Companies shall be conclusive evidence of the contents of that register as it had effect immediately before the passing of this Act, without production of any original document received from any consular authority or agent, and without proof of any other fact in verification of that register.
