Luckyshot Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Your only option is to either get someone to come with you to do it or try and get your fac opened as going by your post it must still be closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David BASC Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 How long have you had your FAC? David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essex Keeper Posted October 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 How long have you had your FAC? David 3 years What I don't understand about open closed fac is if you have a closed fac you still have to make a decision on wether it's safe shoot or not , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David BASC Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I would ask for it to be opened up, three years is plenty of time to be honest and a you say a safe shot is a safe shot where ever you are. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David BASC Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) Yes just ask for the ticket to be opened up so you can shoot on any land you have permission to. You may as well ask for AOLQ while you are at it. If you do not send your certificate in with your variation form the police cannot process your request. We advise that you stock up on ammunition before sending your form to avoid running out during this process. If you experience longer delays than usual or your variation is pending due to enquiries, the police should advise that you keep, or agree to send back, your certificate in order to purchase ammunition or new firearms for which you have authority to acquire, but you must return the certificate when asked for the variation to be completed David Edited October 9, 2013 by David BASC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
