Saffa Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Has anyone applied recently? According to some forums they are considered one of the best/quickest in the country. I hope this is true, as i can't wait to start shopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 If another Force is better or quicker, I will plait sawdust. Firearms lad is a shooter himself - which doesn't mean he is a pushover, but knows his stuff. Admin staff are also excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
