So close...

#1 Post by Demonic69 »

Finally got my FAC through today after 17 weeks! Yay
Sadly they've missed off the two moderators I asked for :'(
I can send it back to get them added but I'm buggered for now as one the rifles after has a mod attached.
Ah well, guess I'll get what I can, then send the form back and finish the collection :-)

As they've missed them off it's a mistake on their part and you can ask them to re-print it correctly rather than have to re-apply.

Certainly worth a phone call as (hard to believe I know) some forces admit to and correct their mistakes in such cases!.

They admitted their mistake mate, they'll reprint no problem, just want my original back first :-(

Is it an integrated moderator or one that just comes with the rifle? Because I thought - and for FSM's sake don't take my word for it - that you didn't need a separate FAC entry for an integrated moderator.

That was my understanding as well.

What would constitute "integrated" though?
I'm pretty sure I've read something before that leads me to agree with you 2.
I think it's an add-on but I'll check with the RFD.

Go for it - reprints tend to turn around fairly quickly in my experience. The Met managed to cock up my address (despite writing it correctly on the envelope kukkuk) and also missed off some of the usual target shooting conditions. Had it back within the week.
