dr_nick Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 I had a mistake on my certificate, .32 black powder pistol (no idea where .32 came from) so I sent it in to get it increased to .44. I fully expected to have to wait a month or so. It came back 3 days later with an appology! Now I just have to wait on my black powder license which might get knocked back ( I asked to store 12kg which I have been told is rather a lot ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and I am a little excited, a bit more fun than the .22 rim fire. 12kg is a lot, though its hard to get around here, it means a fairly long round trip. Even so thats 24 containers, (I thought they were 1kg not 1lb. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get my vote! B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenbears10 Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 I've only had good dealings with Dorset Feos as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlin.45 Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 BP - 12kg is a lot and I thought the guideline was 13lb then they wanted special storage facilities (not the wooden box APU). Though that may have been 13kg and I'm having a senior moment. 12kg will last you an age and I'm sure Christchurch sell BP? My last 1kg (before the reduction to 0.5kg containers) is just about to be replaced after 5 years. But admittidly I don't shoot the .44 that much and most is used to fill .45 Colt carts I guess you have the necessary storage in hand to keep the FEO happy?
