You just have to have a reason for having one, like join a club or pest control.
I do pest control and gave up with FAC its over-rated, there has never been a situation where 12ftlbs has not been enough power, it all comes down to skill in stalking as long as you can get close enough 12ftlbs is the same as being further away with 20ftlbs or 30ftlbs.
I used to use .25 centrefire and a .22 air-rifle at 28ftlbs. Now im back with my trusty .177 at 11.8ftlbs. Yes i have to get closer to do the same thing, but its a lot less hassle if i fancy changing the silencer or anything else.
With FAC you will need a proper gun safe and keep everything locked away, the land you shoot on has to be suitable and you need specific permision for Fire arms use.
Hope you found that usefull.
