drakeshead gunner 26 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Two weeks after my interview come home to find a brown envelope on the door step, opened it up to find that lovely Green cert clearing me for .22 and 17hmr! Well chuffed, start saving for rifle now and choosing a good scope and rifle combo. Quote Link to post
DeerhoundLurcherMan 997 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 That's fast! which police force do you come under? I had my interview 6 weeks ago phoned yesterday to see roughly how much longer I might be waiting and the answer I got back was "how long is a piece of string?" Could be any day now or up to six months........ Quote Link to post

rtaylor 1 Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 I'll have to go and look what colour mine is now. What colour are shotgun certificates? I have a feeling my firearms is blue. Two weeks is very quick. I think mine to about four weeks and that was pretty good by most standards. Quote Link to post
