mr_colt Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Hello all, I have got the FEO coming round tomorrow to do the interview for the grant of my shotgun-cert; I have a cabinet ready. I have checked the security of my home to ensure it meets home office level 2 standards. I have a rough plan of how and where I am going to put the cabinet for when he asks. Its just the interview questions part that I am concerend about. Can anyone give me an idea of what they will ask re shooting knowledge etc. I think I'm pretty brushed up; already had several clay lessons and I have got the BASC's Sporting Shotgun handbook which i have read quite a few times. Any other Q's or tricks/traps I should watch out for? Many Thanks, mr_colt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 They aren't trying to trip you up, he may ask you wheer you have shot, if you are a member of a club (you don't have to be) and maybe where you will be shooting etc. Just be honest. From this post you already sound pretty well organised, you should be absolutely fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepshed Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 The really just want to make sure that you're not an obvious nutter and aren't going to do anything silly. As long as you don't try out your Travis Bickle impersonation on them you'll be fine. My FEO asked the standard 'do you drink' question* which led to us spending 30 minutes discussing the local pubs, including which ones had the best lock-ins. They really are human. * The correct answer is 'yes I like a drink with friends every now and then', the wrong answer is 'yes, otherwise my hands shake too much to hold a gun'.
