thinking of going fac


Recommended Posts

ive been giving great thought recently about applying for my fac and sgc i have enough permision to warrant a scud launcher but would only be going for a .22 rimmy and a shotgun. im 40 years old now and time to move up i think... ive read through the application and it all seems pritty straight forward the only problem i have is in the previous convictions. i have 2 minor incedents to my ny name well over 10 years ago problem is i cant remember exact dates is this a problem? can i request a copy of my previous from the local law?

A lot will depend on what the convictions are for. If I were you and I was in two minds I would pick up the phone and call your local firearms office and have a talk with them and see what they say.

 

Hope that helps

its more a question of remembering the dates of the convictions for the application form

As said before just put the year down, and be completely honest dont miss anything out including speed school instead of points, if you are totally upfront with them and your convictions convictions were fairly minor (no prison time). they should give you what you want atb nasher

now this is where im worrid as one conviction did come with a short stay at one of her majestys finest by the magistrates court.. it was 4 months for a common assult however this was overturned after just one week by the crown and i was released by a top judge who was seathing at the magistrates sentence on me as i was obviously acting in self defence the other was drink driving on a moped when i was 16. but thats all never even had a speeding ticket...what do you guys think?? have i blown it?

You'll be fine in my opinion. even if the original sentence hadn't been quashed I still think you would be fine. Just fill in the forms and go for it.

I think I depends on the decision makers of your police force,but you was let out after a week obviously their mistake by how you explained it,a bloke I used to work with years back had done far worse things than you and he had sgc and fac due to the fact that it was In his younger years.it's not for me to state his offences it's not my place to,but comparing records there's a good chance you should be ok
