steve_b_wales Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 After three weeks from when I applied for a variation ( add another calibre) on my FAC, it arrived back this morning. South Wales police were quoting 10-12 weeks, even for one-for-one variations. Off to pick up my rifle/moderator tomorrow morning. Happy Days!

Lloyd90 Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 I thought a variation was £28 normally. I've just sent them a letter this week for a replacement SGC as I've bloody lost mine. Hopefully it comes soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd90 Posted May 14, 2016 Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 New price is £20. Well that's a bonus as I have a slot for a 17hmr that I'm considering changing for something like a 222 or 223 Is a 1 for 1 variation still FOC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, still free of charge. You can even 'swap' a slot for a moderator and ask for a certain calibre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent I've got 2 slots for 17HMR + Mod. Not sure whether to put in for something else or just try and get more use out of the 243 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ordnance Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) No. I see, you get a letter here when they receive your application allowing you to buy ammo for the firearms you have on your FAC.
