A few years back a fellow was caught with an empty Laws tube when police raided his home on a tip-off. The song and dance in the media would lead you to believe that they had saved the world.

David, Your not quite right. You can still have the tube on a Collectors Cat 1. licence. Or if your lucky, a Cat. E. licence. Mine have been registered for many years without any problems apart from the extended security system as required by Victoria police. (A bunker,monitored security system by 3 different bodies and CCTV). But they do make it hard.
