Olliesims Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Well yesterday I dropped my pride and joy off at the gun smiths and thought nothing of it until today when I realised I have no proof of me leaving it there as i didnt get a receipt, so what should I do? does it matter that I don't have one?

PhilR Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 I always have to have my SGC with me when I drop my gun off at the gunsmith. They need to log it onto their RFD register. So there should be a record of who the gun belongs to if they go belly up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatcatsplat Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 They should automatically give you a receipt stating that gun accepted for repairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cookoff013 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 i`d get a reciept, i had to sue a RFD for my stuff back. found out from an employee, that they threw my gun bits in the bin. it almost ended up court, even though they tried to refuse to pay repair bill. after they aranged the repair. i would have had to claim for the whole gun. which is extremely expensive. a small piece of metal, flat spring steel cost them in excess of £1000 solicitor was fantastic.

JonathanL Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 That's what I thought because maybe on the off chance fao turns up I've no written proof it is at the gunsmiths You don't really need any proof. Just tell him where it is and he will check if he thinks he needs to, J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillmouse Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Did he take the details off your SGC?? Did he write it down?? It would be more normal for it to be entered in a repair book rather than the register as it has not been transferred from you to the RFD. I would have expected a receipt.

jmj121 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Rfd's in Buckinghamshire always give you a receipt, and you have to show them your SCL. so that they can enter in the reg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 If you are really concerned write down wher eyou took it and when and for what on a sheet of paper and keep it with SGC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillmouse Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Yes did both and wrote it down in his book Probably just an oversight. It all sounds above board apart from not giving you a receipt. Give him a call or drop by and ask for a receipt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
