FAC Renewals

#1 Post by dodgyrog »

I dropped in my forms for coterminus renewal today.
I wonder what they will make of my request for 9 more guns?

If you are after s1 guns and have good reason and security, what's the problem?...unless some surprises come out of the Cumbria enquiry.

I have just renewed by SGC and it was interesting that despite me telling them when I get rid of things and them recording when I get rid of things there was a variance when we had a chat over the 'phone.

Easily resolved though ;)

Security and reasons are sound (along with the alarm).
I;ll wait and see, though.

When I was increasing the slots on my personal FAC from 70 to 100 it took the licensing authority nearly a year to say yes.

The reason I found out unofficially afterwards was that firearms licensing saw no reason to refuse but the assistant chief didn't want to sign it off so it just sat. The reason he didn't want to sign it off was that he wasn't confident in his licensing department being able to keep track of the possible 1 for 1s and variation such a ticket could generate.

Still steady away and keep the faith and you get there.
