DuncanH Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi! My name is Duncan, recently moved from Cambridge to Gloucestershire. Just joined the forum, but have been viewing it as a guest for a while. Not yet got a SGC but it is with the police ready to be dealt with, although from what I have read on here it seems I could be in for quite a wait! Been shooting a few times with friends and wanting to get into it properly, especially clay pigeon shooting as there seems to be a lot of grounds around my area.

stripey999 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Duncan, welcome to the site. Lots of good advice to be gained here. Sometimes you can be lucky with Gloucester sorting the certificate out quickly but other times they take an age. You should receive a call to arrange the interview but mine (plus renewal & change of address) all were done after a cold call at the house. where in Gloucesershire?

Yonic Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hi Duncan Welcome to the site, a friend has just got his SGC from Gloucestershire, took close on to 3 months so you may have a bit of a wait unfortunately.

silver pigeon 3 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Welcome mate I think you will be in for a bit of a wait, My certificate took 10 weeks to come through. Didnt get the interview until week 9. Good luck and if you are towards the south of gloucestershire you are more than welcome to come out on the clays with us before or after you get our certificate.

DuncanH Posted January 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Thanks for the replies everyone! Seems like a very friendly bunch on here! I am in a village called Naunton, near Bourton on the Water. SGC doesn't sound to promising! But I am a student so wont really be able to shoot until Easter anyway, but when Easter comes I will quickly go through what's left of my student loan on cartridges hopefully! I have been on a 'have a go day' at Cotswold CC, which is only 15 mins from my house, everyone there was very friendly and it had a nice atmosphere with the fire going in the club house. I may well take people up on their offers where my SGC finally arrives! Duncan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
