defender Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 If I sold a firearm on a slot to buy another, how does that work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saddler Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Sell it Do a one-for-one variation to get the new slot added Replace sold gun .....or did you mean something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defender Posted May 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 So a variation is needed and licence needs to be sent off to have a free slot before another gun can be bought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shot? Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 As Bullet says,(Sell the gun send licence away , receive licence back with new slot buy new gun , as the advert says simples) When you inform FEO that you have sold your rifle you need to ASK for a one for one variation at the same time. They will not do it automatically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaedra1106 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) You have to notify plod of the sale or transfer of a firearm within 7 days, you do this (and can also request your variation) by using Form 201v, https://basc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/downloads/2016/03/201V.pdf Post it (please use recorded delivery) along with your FAC (if you're also asking for a variation) to your forces firearms licensing unit, their address will be on your forces website.

Dougy Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 You can also notify them via email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaedra1106 Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Indeed you can and I do this as soon as I sell/transfer/acquire something with a PDF file. However, as he also wants a variation he needs to send in a Form 201v along with his FAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saddler Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 I send in variation forms by email too. Form 202 I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
