rover Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 I have moved from Norfolk to Cornwall so need to change the address on my ticket (shotgun) and have notified Norfolk Police, and Devon/Cornwall Police. When moving I transferred my guns and cabinet to a friend while we got the new house ready, and at that time informed the two police forces of my change of address. This is all about 4 weeks ago. Norfolk Police were prompt and helpful, and have notified Cornwall even though I had already done this. Cornwall responded to my original email to say that someone would ring me to check my security arrangements (even though I hadn't given them a phone number...) but nothing since, and they have not responded to repeat emails. So my question is.... Can I have my guns back from my friend and keep them here in Cornwall even though I have a Norfolk licence? I probably could have saved all this typing and just asked that, but it's done now. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walshie Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) Yes, as long as you notified your old force of your new address, you've done your bit. I moved from London to Wales and it took 10 months for them to come and look at my cabinets. Edited April 16, 2017 by walshie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have discovered several new words since being here, and wondered what 'dreckly' meant- I think I am starting to learn. I thought Norfolks took their time...... I am near Bodmin, by the way.

lakeside1000 Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 I think I will stay in Norfolk, sounds like a foreign land down there, watch you don't fall of the end of England and never be seen again, my brother used to live in Penzance but no ones seen or heard from him in ages, even when we did speak on the phone I couldn't understand a word he said, 'foreign land' mark my words !!!

Muddy Funker Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Yes, I've done this twice now.Currently I've got guns in Aberdeeenshire on a Sussex licence. Notified everyone, only had a call a couple of days ago after 5 months. ******* useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
