steve_b_wales Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 I've just been reading in Sporting Gun that the price of the above could almost double to £106 (SGC) and £116 (FAC)No mention of coterminous ones. The last price increase was in 2014. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what BASC have said. 'Studies have shown that over the past 25 years, only 10 of the 43 authorities have provided an acceptable service, with the remainder taking up to a year to complete the licensing process, with 4 forces taking two years or more'.

It’s just specific confirmation of what everyone knows really. We all know it’s a rubbish ‘service’; what’s being done about it would be more helpful to know.

Currently nothing, they are not a big enough team of people to make it quicker, with all the red tape each force seem to add on to applications and variations etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
