humperdingle Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Couldn't you just have downloaded the forms and printed them out? Or perhaps you don't have a printer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 When I applied for my FAC/SGC, the chap in the gunshop called Sussex police for me, and had them send the forms to my address. 2 days later they were on my doorstep. When I need variation forms il ask them again to do the same system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Before the net and downloading PDF's came along they used to hand these out at front desks at the cop shop (and still do) - I'd just get them to hand me over a pile of those. The fee you pay surely includes the cost of using a form, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr lee Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Trakker, all my forms from West Yorkshire HQ came stamped/franked up. Have you ever been into their HQ? I did when I dropped mine off as I was working only a few hundred yards away. Talk about being treat like a criminal! No sooner you mention the firearms unit to the front desk then they switch from normal bloke to chief interrogator! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 herts have always sent me out a formwhen I've sent my licence in whether to have guns added or the address changed. Maybe they just have a pile in the office to get rid of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
