Scully Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Yes, you can sell it privately if you like, then apply for your 1 for 1 variation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 It’s a while since I’ve done it, but as far as I can recall, you have to create a space first, by selling your existing firearm, informing licensing In the usual way, and informing them you require a 1 for 1, and fill in the obligatory form in the normal manner. Once your variation comes through it’s off to the shops again! 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieT Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 In the circumstances you describe, I have always submitted a variation with a request that my current rifle be put on a temporary permit. This enables me to continue to use my rifle until the variation comes through and then buy the new one. Then, with the old rifle on the temp permit, it allows sufficient time to dispose of the unwanted rifle in whichever way I chose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they take the gun off your FAC, and onto the temporary licence? But the temporary licence is also yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what I done and granted without question. Now I've sold both, im also going to be going for a variation, again a 22lr and fac air. Btw saw the tikka t1x today, it looked lovely. Its possibly on my shopping list too, and never thought I'd change from a cz. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted October 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Hello, just to update I mailed TVP and asked if I can get a dedicated night rifle set up, failing that CZ on temporary licence and get new Tikka, then gift the CZ when my friend gets his FAC, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-G Posted October 24, 2020 Report Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) As above, similar/same calibres can be acquired for different justifications. I got a second 17 HMR granted for dedicated night vision use. I'd respectfully suggest this might be an opportune time to also request a 17HMR for longer range, then sell the CZ when your buddy gets his ticket. The variation should cost the same for both requests and you get five years to contemplate the HMR.
