fortune Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) I don't know what it is like in your area but I've had my co-terminous in since June and I haven't heard from them at all. The people in the firearms department said that as long as the application was in before the due date then not to worry and it was in the system and to carry on as normal. This is no problem for me because I reload any ammo that I need or have stocks and ways to get components. PS I know of a club that had an application for the club cert renewal since march and they've been told not to expected a cert issue until December at the earliest. Club members have been told that if they want ammo they will have to go and buy it from a dealer rather than from the club which has run out of ammunition to spell to the members. The club makes a small profit from the ammo sales for club funds and it has now lost this income. Edited December 4, 2015 by fortune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you got that in writing.Regardless of what they say if your licence has expired you are holding firearms without a licence ask them to put it in writing then see what they say Edited December 8, 2015 by geordieh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
