The Mighty Prawn Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 My FAC which I've held for 12 months was target only as I'm a member of a shooting club but had no land. Joined a DIY syndicate which entitles me to shoot out of season so put my ticket back in and it's come back today fully open including deer so happy days at the Prawn house! Also they haven't classed it as a variation so have sent back my £26 too West Mercia, I have now forgiven you for the four months it took for my fac grant in the first place and God bless all who sail in you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srspower Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I'm amazed that the feo I had from west mercia allowed that! Maybe you had a different guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimpleSimon Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I have just had my FAC and SGC granted by West Mercia and I couldn't be happier with the speed and smoothness. Took just over 5 weeks, including the Christmas/New Year period. The FEO was perfectly happy to grant me everything I'd asked for even though I have no permanent permission and currently only stalk quite occasionally by kind invitations or the odd paid day. I hear horror stories of applications that take months and FEOs who make it hard, but this was the opposite. Well done West Mercia! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Prawn Posted January 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I'm amazed that the feo I had from west mercia allowed that! Maybe you had a different guy? I know you had a bit of a tough time with yours but actually I didn't even get a call from the FEO, just the office to confirm what I'd put in the accompanying letter. Spanner in the works though as having read it over they have missed one of my guns and instead given me a permission to acquire for that slot so I've had to send it back so fingers crossed the conditions don't change when it comes back - although I have taken a copy with the open conditions just in case...
