Non toxic shot if you’re going to shoot them! -
Renewing a FAC / Shotgun certifcate. (Pro Forma)

A lot can change in 5 years. If the system is working correctly surely changes to your medical record affecting gun ownership are flagged to the police as soon as your records are updated. If at your next renewal nothing has been flagged then why would you need to bother your GP again? -

Down South replied to steve_b_wales's topic in General Shooting Matters
I’m going through the same process, my last renewal asked my doctor to put a flag on my medical records highlighting I’m a gun owner. I don’t know if he provided a medical report for the police. Got my completed form back from my GP last week, 2 week turn around. The questions on it relate to mental health/depression etc issues and is a simple yes no tick box. If any question is answered yes then further information is asked for. This is the first time a mandatory medical report has been asked for so I assume a full “drains up”, review of our medical records is required. I’ve never seen my registered GP so he doesn’t now my medical history. Let’s hope the whole process proceeds smoothly. -
Just starting the process of coterminous renewal. Got my medical form to the doctors 2 weeks ago and have heard today that I can collect it tomorrow, £40 charge. Hants police web site says 12 week turn around but email from firearms dept says I can apply up to 16 weeks in advance so my renewal will go in mid March for early July renewal date. Fingers crossed. When I renewed last time I took some flack on here for paying £40 to my doctor for placing a marker on my records, how times have changed!

My nephew has just fitted one of these eBay cabs for a new application. Supplied by trader in Southend, £6 delivery 👍. FAO was impressed by it apparently.

Electric hand blender to break down the veg then push through a sieve using the back of a spoon so nothing is wasted. Great for finishing soups too.

Woodpigeon: pest or a quarry species?
Down South replied to Conor O'Gorman's topic in General Shooting Matters
409 views so far! Not being disrespectful but perhaps members seeing your name on a new topic expect to see the discussion degenerate into a slagging match involving the usual suspects. Members have their views and are still allowed to voice them. That said; any legislation that benefits live quarry shooting has to be welcomed providing the general licenses don’t get more complicated. -
Have you seen the number of new gun aimed at the female market? The manufacturers are doing something about it.
