onefulham Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 My son did the same last Nov when he turned 15, quite strict but fair guy, lots of questions, asked all the usual safety and security ones, also asked him to explain bits of gun and how they worked. I never had to do that, said at end he would recommend him as did well but admited only doing that at 15 because we said we want to shoot at a local club that only allows Cert holders there, otherwise would have to wait till full age and just go round with other cert holders till then. We are in Beds, don't know if other places follow that rule Good luck to your Son and yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats interesting to know , I have been in touch with them and up until, now all they have asked for is a name of a school teacher for further reference. I found this to be only a good thing and told Jack that as long as he hasn't been up to no good then all should be well. Daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
