meldino2005 39 Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 its for sgc as my cabinet hasnt got the built in ammo storage safe so i bought a seperate one. i thought you had to have catridges in a secure ammo box?? Quote Link to post
Chid 6,625 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 nope you dont even need a licence to have cartridges in your possesion Quote Link to post

The Duncan 802 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 I've got everything from rimmies to centrefire on my ticket and my ammo safe is built into the top of my rifle safe which is no problem for Thames Valley Police. Quote Link to post
meldino2005 39 Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 i will apply for my fac in a few months as i thought it would be best to have the sgc first. will be trying for a .17hmr and .222 so fingers crossed. Are they quite strict on what you first apply for?? Quote Link to post
steve_7 10 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 my feo wasnt bothered about cartridges or where they would be kept, although i do have a van safe for laptops to lock them away in and he just replied... thats overkill could of been kept on wardrobe............... now with a 16yr old down to a 4 yr old i remember when i was young what i got upto hehe, good luck as down the line once feo is on my side il put in for a .17 also Quote Link to post
iana 25 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Got mine fixed next to cabinet and that was ok for cambs police. Against seems weird that shotgun cartiridges don't need to be secure!! Just as dangerous as any rimfire ammo or centre fire. My FAO said you can keep them on the dining room table if I liked!!!! Didn't take that advice and keep mine in the safe. Quote Link to post
TWOTWOTHREE 152 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Fixed next to cabinet for sgc and fac with no probs from them, Atb Quote Link to post
fiona22 0 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Had my FAC visit tonight, showed him the cabinet in utility room, told him the ammo safe was under a shelf in the kitchen, he didn't even take a look at it. Dyfed Powys Police Quote Link to post
