Cambs telephone renewal
My second FAC renewal is up in Feb (blimey 15 years ), I sent all the paper work in beginning of December.
Just had a call from my FEO and he sorted it all over the phone, including a couple of slots for a second .22RF and a .260Rem apparently my cert should be in the post shortly
How simple is that, much respect to them for a sensible approach

Dont tell me it's 15 years since you bought that PSS?
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Re: Cambs telephone renewal
Second renewal at 15 years? Surely that should be your third ...
Seems as though some authorities take a sensible view with long standing customers. Mine was a 10 minute visit mainly to speak about one particular S5 that I own and he seemed to need to be in my area for some reason. And my cert was with me about 3 days later.
Maybe Cambs and the Met could get together and bid to take on Thames Valley's operations in place of G4Slow.

Yep if you count the action.... , If you recall I posted a couple of times about the transformation it went through.

Re: Cambs telephone renewal
My last renewal was just a phone interview. I wasn't adding anything extra and hadn't changed any security arrangements so it was pretty straightforward. The only thing mentioned was carrying slots across from my last certificate that I hadn't bought yet, but that turned into a conversation about the EU being bar stewards and not having a clue about guns so it was all good!
