Well, not legally, no.  You commit an offence at the point where you modify it to be a RIF, and you won't have a defence.

As noted above though, some of these arguably aren't IFs to begin with, so there's no change of category.

And ongoing ownership isn't an offence, only the act of modification.

if no one knows you have it, or wont see it then did the offence occur? Arguably yes, but who would know?

But we need to stick to the legality and proper advise on here.

Basically all any of these folk want is to be told that it's OK.  It gets tiresome repeating that it's an offence, that they (usually) don't have a defence, but that the reality is...

And the thing is, they're going to go ahead and do it anyway.

Your right, WE all know its silly and at the end of the day no one is going to know or care, so just go ahead and be sensible about it.
