Evilv Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 As I recall it took ten days from my delivering the application until it was delivered on the doormat and a recent variation for an HMR took eight days, but at least three of them were taken up because I hadn't sent in my old FAC and they had to ask me for it. Northumbria Police Firearms and Explosives Licensing are very efficient, reasonable and polite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seisobs Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 Applied for a firearms certificate for a .22 LR, had a permission letter to shoot vermin on 425 acres from the land owner. Firearms officer interviewed me 10 days after the application was sent in, land check was done 8 days later, certificate arrived through the post 5 days later. They were very thorough (rightly so), I am well impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
