Ouch... it is really terrible! I was thinking that at least renewal is taking less than half a year
-
It is quite disheartening to hear, but still thanks for the info 😞

I have been today to show. Tried to ask them about wait times. The answer was as usual, that they can't provide any info, but average should be 6 months. I think 6 months is somewhat too optimistic. Curious what they will tell you.

Need to find a volunteer to cover my work oncall on the day of the trip. It is hard for weekends, but maybe worth trying to get a day off for Friday... Is there any difference in visiting on Friday or on weekends? I heard about similar shows in Italy, that the first day is only for bloggers/newsagents and dealers company. Is it the same here?

Hi Matt95, It would be wonderful! I was thinking to visit British Shooting show too, but seems it won't be possible this year.

It is sad to hear. I hope waiting time in Cambridgeshire won't be so long.

Thank you!

Thank you for the warm welcome. I have learned a lot from reading Pigeon Watch. I remember the discussion here was a good source of information, like when applications were paused last April, just a few days before I tried to apply first time. I inquired about wait times twice, but only got a "we're busy" response with no details. From googling, the only info I found was outdated BASC reports. I also saw FAC waits were 8 months a year and a half ago, but not sure if that correlates with SGC and that was before period of suspension. I understand they're understaffed and prioritizing renewals, but a year waits don't sound good. Could you point out how to find their contacts? I was frequently browsing GunTrader and had selected a few guns, but they got sold before I could buy them. So I stopped browsing there for now, until I have my license in hand.

Hello everyone! Has anyone in this group received approval for a new SGC application recently in Cambs/Beds/Herts ? If so, how long did you have to wait? I submitted my application last September, but I haven't received any updates yet, aside from being informed that they are currently busy. I was optimistic, thinking that the resumption of new applications meant the backlog had been cleared, but it seems I may have been mistaken.
