Mason4796 Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Morning all I am due to pick up a new shotgun this evening but hoped for some advice. Table 2 on my shotgun certificate has no free spaces left on it for the purchase to be logged against. Does anyone know want I need to do in this instance? Many thanks!

bruno22rf Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 The seller can put their details underneath the last entry even if it's not in a box - then apply to your local Firearms dept for an extension sheet - unless things have changed?

rapid .25 Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Hi mason,you can squeeze it in one of the boxes with one of your other purchases then send it off to them to be replaced with a new one, it doesn't cost anything, but make sure your new purchase is on your ticket.👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmboy91 Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Wabbitbosher made me a lovely new box on the bottem of mine 😂 My local rfd said it doesn't matter where it is along as its written on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had my current ticket in for replacement as it was full about 18 month back It is now full again and ready for replacing But will wait till the end of the season I have never been questioned by my firearms division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Boggy Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 OK, I know that this post is over 5 years old, but does anyone know whether things have changed regarding just adding details of a further purchase under the last box in table 2 of the shotgun certificate? Surely, providing the necessary notification to the police is done timely (i.e. within 7 days) then I cannot see any problem. I am, however, awaiting a call back from my FEO on this, for his interpretation. OB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB As far as I'm aware and I haven't been told anything to the contrary it hasn't changed but what they don't want is a scan of someone else's empty table page or a bit of A4 with the boxes drawn on it. Squeeze it in and send it off. I'd take photo of it too. Mistakes are made and guns are left off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve just had an email back from Kent police asking me to send in my certificate and they will issue a replacement with empty space in table 2. I’m a bit concerned on the turn round time of this, although I’ve always had really good and prompt service from them in the past, so here’s hoping.

I know someone who moved house and sent in his certificate for the address change. He doesn't keep his guns at home so you'd think it would be straight forward. 3 weeks later his 1st shoot date came around and still no certificate from the Met. He couldn't draw his gun from storage so a mate of his had to lend him one on the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilR Posted November 1 Report Share Posted November 1 (edited) I applied on line to Northants Police on 2nd September for a replacement SGC to be issued as table 2 is full. Had a follow up request asking for a copy of my certificate on 16th September which I scanned and emailed back by return. I had an interview with my FEO on 15th October for the renewal of my SGC that expires on 12th March 2025, which seems remarkably early but I got the renewal paperwork at the end of September. I mentioned I hadn't had the outstanding replacement and she said she'd chase it up when back in the office. Given that it's now two months barring one day without any further communication, I emailed my FEO earlier this morning asking for an update on the replacement or whether the renewal of the certificate would supercede it. The post has just been delivered and my replacement certificate with the 2025 expiry date was amongst it. However, the issue date on it and the covering letter is 20th September, but the envelope is franked 29th October. I wonder whose desk this has been sitting on for over a month?
