tulkyuk Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 My FAC variation arrived this morning, only sent it in on friday and the FAO does not work on mondays - so it only took 2 days to process and to be sent back - Well done to North Wales Police Has come back with a .223 added for foxing, vermin control, ground game and deer stalking. :lol: Ticket has also come back open for all my rifles So its time to go shopping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
