Morning all, just thought i'd ask before phoning the firearms office and sounding like a chump.
Looking to thin out my collection and have a bit of a change around, which will mean the sale of about five or six firearms. the easy way would be to drop the off lot to a local RFD, but be charged for storage etc. The other would be to sell them privately, but here is where the question arises. What I would like to do is start and sell them without the need to return the licence within the seven days, just the transaction paperwork. Then once they've all gone, within an agreed time, send in the licence with the relevant one for ones/variations, thus reducing the need for my licence to go backwards and forwards with the time delay in between.
Does anybody know if this can be done/ has been done, or not worth doing.
Hope i've explained myself,
Many thanks Neil
