Gunnut Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Shotgun certificate renewal just back from Essex Police, 16 working days, would have been sooner, but they phoned me for 4 photo- copies of my old license, I didn't realise I had too send. Pretty good service in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Why did they want 4 copies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panoma1 Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Five months and two section 7's, before I received my renewal!....no one it seems, can effectively hold the police to account, so they don't give a ****, they just do as they please! This timescale will probably at least double when/if the new proposals for licensing millions of airguns in England and Wales is adopted as it will fall within the responsibility of the countries same police firearms licensing departments to administer!

fse10 Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Wish they was as quick with my SGC renewal & grant of FAC as that. Visit on 11/12 now having to get the Met to check the land as falls within there area even though it's in Essex, so more messing about & most likely more time needed, at least they gave me a sec7 but dated to exp in June hope it doesn't take that long..
