The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

My request for one was completely ignored and only by making a nuisance of myself l was prioritised. I don't want to elaborate as l think l took my head well over the parapet and l have a feeling it still is. Others in my area have been waiting 22 weeks since applying and 10 weeks overdue. The FAC's are issued but not sent out as they are being given out as part of the visit. They are put on the National Computer and done before the old one expires so superficially everything looks dandy except the licencesees do not have them.

In which case I'd get onto BASC even if you're not a member and let them know what's going on, that simply should not be happening.

I am a member and spoke to them and followed their advice and put in a complaint to Professional Standards. It seems to have done the trick as l frogleapt others that have been waiting alot longer but havn't pushed hard enough if at all.
