Thanks all for your insights, much appreciated. I’ll get him to sign a letter and of course I can ask an FEO, although they are hard to get in touch with round here. Cheers Hwr

Well my plan was for him to bring said guns and cabinet to my house, securely bolt it next to my other cabinet, then transfer all guns onto my certificate, so in fact they are mine. Then lock them up, notify my relevant authority online, take photocopies screenshots etc. and sit back and wait for the FEO to come and inspect my new instalment at their leisure. i think that would cover it wouldn’t it?

What is the process? Do we just move the safe and shotguns and fill out the licenses and online forms? (I already have my own safe and guns.)

That’ll be a great start for someone

.22 is a bouncing bomb in comparison to an HMR, also easily accurate to 100yds. However ammo is 5 times more expensive and they are louder. NB always check .17 ammo before use.

I’ll add my two pennies worth, and that is how I much prefer a mil dot reticule.

I think they are taking the Mickey, mine was £15 or perhaps £25 ( I don’t remember) and took a couple of weeks. Northamptonshire police however have yet to issue it some 12 months later, they did issue a “12 month temporary permit” 5 months after certificate expiry. They literally can’t get the staff.

If destroying an old worn out gun, if it’s tricky to cut with a slitting disc ( I can’t see why it would be but I’ve never tried ) could you not just use a mig welder and fill the breech?

Thanks for the quick replies Tightchoke and Ditchman , it would appear to be working ok now, when I searched for Pigeon watch the usual link said server not working 🤷.Then the links seemed very old, so I had a bit of a panic on, as although not an often visitor it’s always invaluable when I do. Thanks Happy Shooting H

Dearest pigeon watch, where have all the recent posts gone, has the site moved or what?

I’ll have it, I would send you a PM if I could work out how to 🙈

Well that seems to be unanimous, many thanks folks👍😃

So folks which wellies are the warmest? I’ve the Chamaeu neoprene which are ok but the rubber has a shelf life of 10 years and not they're that warm in the foot part.
