stokie Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Put in for coterminous renewal of FAC an SG sent it off on the 10th had interview on the 17th and both tickets arrived yesterday . Much improved from last SG cert renewal which took 22 weeks and my ticket was 3 months out of date and I was still in possession of shotguns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokie Posted July 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Forgot to mention they are about to trial telephone interviews for renewals in the near future . To save them time as long as there are no differences in application Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team tractor Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Can't fault them at the minute. I had one for one in 5 days . Only thing I've had is another slot with moderator on it but I've still got mine . Rang them and it's showing I've still got it on system I've got to send it back again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegingeritalian Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Had the telephone interview the other day. It was painless enough and took around 5 minutes so thumbs up from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 It really is good to hear positive comments about different firearms departments, a very refreshing change from hearing that some have taken months before seeing results! I can never fault Lancashire Firearms for either their efficiency or their very helpful attitude - I sent my certificate in on Monday to get my Black Powder guns taken off and a slot opened up for a Bolt Action 22LR (In case I decide to get one) and got my certificate back yesterday. I believe that many (OK there might still be a few exceptions to the rule) firearms offices are handling things much quicker nowadays which is great to see.

moorvale55 Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Recently had a variation, wanted fox and aolq adding on the rimfires and a change from .223 to .243 with deerstalking adding, sent it to Staffs Police on Friday and got it back on the Tuesday. Great service! Good to hear about the telephone interviews as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogcal Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Less than a month for a coterminous renewal. Can't have that now can we. Perhaps G4S should try for the contract if Staffs police ever put it out to tender and then the status quo of 4 to 5 months (like wot a lot of us are enduring) will be met!
