Dangerzone Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 The last time I tryed my local post office for one they dident know what I was talking about, had to go to a main office and even then it took them ages to find them..........dont think many people around my neck of the woods bother.

Nial Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 You can get them from BASC Scotland, you can phone and pay by credit card. A Google for "Game Licence Scotland" will get you the details. If you phone them NOW you'll get the licence for the weekend. Apparently Nial.

utectok Posted September 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Interesting that your insurance is not valid without one thanks for the heads up on that one I wonder if the rest of my syndicate know? BASC one costs £7 (£1 handling fee) call Carol on 01350 723226 (BASC Scotland). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildfowler.250 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Legal requirement and at 6 pounds why wouldn't you get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulpicide Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 They are only a legal requirement if you shoot game if you do'nt shoot game just vermin and wildfowl you dont need one. Cant see why it would affect you're insurance if you do'nt shoot game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nial Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Aye, but if you were out shooting game and had an accident you (apparently) wouldn't be covered without one. It looks like most don't bother but for the sake of £7 I've bought one. Nial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
