firearms certificate

[primrose 4]

i am thinking about applying for my firearms certificate but seeing i do pest control for a living the question about whos land you are using it on what do i put down on the application form

[The Seeker 3,048]

You need to get a letter of permission from the land owner you have permission to shoot on, this will then be submitted with your application.

yep, Defo a land owner would be the easiest option. the bigger the better. and away from population even better still. But if your trying to get a cert for your pest control im not sure of the requirements, They may be different, Im sure there are a lot of professional pest controllers on here who will give you the correct advice

I'm a BPCA pest controller with an FAC for 22lr and 17hmr, also have a SGC. To get an FAC you have to have permission, land, on which you need, or have reason, to use the said caliber of rifle you want. Say you want a 22lr and have permission on which to use a 22lr, and you were granted a FAC for a 22lr. If then a farmer wanted you to go and shoot some rabbits on his land, as part of a pest control contract, before you could shoot those rabbits you would still have to get in touch with your FAO to find out if that land had been passed to shoot on. If it has not the FAO would have to come out and take a look at the land to see if it is safe to shoot over.
