| Tue Jul 17, 2007 9:11 pm Aquiring a FAC ? Best Procedure |
|
|
Hi,
What is the best way to aquire an FAC. I already own a couple of shotguns and various air-rifles and feel there is a need for an FAC.
Totally clean record, so that should not pose a problem.
I know there are sites that give information but I feel that one-to-one info makes more sense into getting the info that is required rather than what is not needed.
Cheers
Nick |

Hi Keith - I have been led to believe that it is not as simple as that.
Things like places to shoot, permission, reasons, storage areas different.
This is a bare bones question, from the very beginning. I know nowt about it, and don't want to mess things up.
I live in East Yorkshire and I think it may not be as easy as where you are, maybe others have had dealings with the law round here and shed some light of a FAC newby.
Cheers anyhow, Keith

Ok here goes I will try and make it simple for you to understand .
first you need a good reason for owning an FAC target shooting/stalking/vermin/ECT.
then you need somwhere to shoot it farms/woodland/ranges
then you need writen permision for that land from the owner .
then get the forms from the cops fill them in and send them in with your fees as you have a shotgun license it shouldnt be to much hastle.
now get a gun cabinet with seperate ammo section .
and wait for the cops to contact you and pop round to have a quick chat and check your cabinate out .
Wayne . :D
Any probs feel free to drop me a line . |

| Will have to get a form and fill it in. Got plenty of land (10000 Acres) dotted around here and there so one of them should give us written permission. |
