yidoharry Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hi guys.....as the title suggests my dad can't shoot anymore due to a combination of age and ill health and wants to give me he's 3 shotguns. Just wanted to know the best way to do this and if he or I need to inform the relavent authorities. He's never given a gun away to anyone so isn't sure and I'm fairly new to the sport so any information would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance, Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie to this Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) He gifts you the shotguns and fills in your certificate, you then both inform your relevant issuing police forces, he informs his that he has gifted them to you and you inform yours that you have accuired the guns. The forms are normally available online to download or fill out electronically and most forces accept the form via email. Good luck. If in doubt ring your FEO and he will steer you in the right direction. Edited September 7, 2017 by Newbie to this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
