rogo Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Best buy is on BBS.COM. Sako Quad plus mod for £300 and he is only in Newbridge. If your with Gwent Police you'll be waiting at least 6 months for your FAC though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My FAC was quoted 4-6 months and took nearly 12. I heard lots of people were having problems with gwent, but fair play they have admitted to having a large backlog of applicants and they said they are doing their best to improve the time it takes to issue certificates. They quoted me around 4-6 months when i first applied, i had my home visit within a month (mind you i did call up every week asking about the application, within a month a 1 week i had my home visit, within 1 month and 2 weeks my application was through Got it this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
