J@mes Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well 4 months after submitting my forms, I have just had my visit and my SGC has been granted! My FEO was very helpful with my questions, didnt grill me at all and just explained the workings of buying/ selling guns to me. He drank all of his tea (which must be a good sign?) but left the whole pack of foxs crunch creams that I put out, and now I am staring at them lovingly, knowing i cant touch them because I am on a diet. Certifcate should be here within 4 weeks, but he has said I will go to the top of the paperwork pile in the office as I have already waited long enough!

al4x Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 you're so much more timid on here! Usually once the interview is done they turn them round much faster than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishybarney Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Congrates mate What questions did he ask anything that you think a newbie may not know but really should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Congratulations, that's great. It's a funny feeling when you've been told you'll get it. You're not so nervous about the interview etc and wonder why you were worrying so much, but the wait will drive you crazy (if you're anything like me). Well done on getting it though, what's on the shopping list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 at least it'll give you a reason to get rid of that poofy evo and get a proper 4x4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J@mes Posted January 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 On the shopping list is: a 4x4 that ISNT a performance saloon an O/U, looking at beretta, miroku or browning and probably a pump/ semi for out in the field when i have enough experience on the clays!
