Guest Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Oh Good luck dude, should go well. Do you have to have insurance when the FEO comes round if you're getting a shotgun certificate? In that case I better make a BASC membership pretty soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon2008 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 dont think you need insurance but got mine the other week. I went for BASC thinking it would cover all game sports; but now not sure if id have cover if i hooked someones eye with a fly when fishing? Anyways happy to have joined them and you get a braw car sticker, sew on patch and tie pin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon2008 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Had interview; went well; guy was sound and laughed at my colourfull youth when going through the convictions part! (Never done anything too bad, just scrapping and the like in my teens) Simply asked if i was or ever been on medication? What was i planning on shooting? How many guns did I plan to get? Then said he`d phone my counter signatory and then Id get sgc in the post. All over in about 10 minutes so well chuffed. Hope he phones the guy today!
