Tornado1979 145 Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Well I’ve just had a visit from the FAO for my interview and to check two of my permissions out for the .223 with land not being passed, what a nice guy provided me with loads of useful information and I can now relax, I’ve had all rifles + Mods accepted on my first application…...22RF / .17MHR / .223 + SGC I sent applications off 2 weeks so not taken long to sort, said up to 6 weeks for ticket though so Just got to sit back and wait for ticket to arrive now well happy Quote Link to post
drakeshead gunner 26 Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Well done mate, gives you a bit of time to get some savings for the rifles haha. Rember when I got my ticket a few months ago, makes you want to run out there and then to buy a rifle. 1 Quote Link to post

Davesdad 10 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I would have definitely paid the extra. So I had to go away this week for a couple of days and that's when it came, typical. Still that's me back now so after work I am emptying the kids piggybanks and heading to the gun dealer :-D I have been waiting a month so far for the license to come through the door, feel like a kid waiting on Christmas...... haha i'll be going mad after a month Shame you can't pay for a super fast service like with passport be worth £100 or maybe £200 haha 1 Quote Link to post

Tornado1979 145 Posted November 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Well 7 weeks on and still no sign of my beloved ticket... emailed office today to kindly ask for an update so I can let my permissions know incase they sacked me off, but just got a reply saying it was still pending, no other info or suggested time so I'm just going to chill out now and let the magic happen..... Just hope the RFD can hold on to the rifle a little longer Quote Link to post

seprim 32 Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 took six months for me to get my ticket from application the Kent team were massively overloaded though, and they are a hardworking bunch no point moaning, just "HOLD FAST" and prepare for when it arrives Andrew 1 Quote Link to post
