Firearms departments come in for a lot of stick and some of it is justified. Wiltshire however should be responsible for the training of all other regions.
I have just "popped in" unannounced which I know is wrong for some advice on the time required to submit a variation for a foreign trip I have just booked
The FEO was more than happy to give me the advice then, when he could see I needed the variation urgently to get my EFP sorted and rifle purchased he told me to take a seat and he would sort it out (1 for 1)
I now have my ticket with the required variation and I can now get my trip sorted
Now I would always make an appointment first to get these sort of things sorted but I wanted to get the advice and chanced my arm by popping in. What I got was a very professional FEO that could see my situation was different and chose to provide a first class service.
Wiltshire are a fantastic firearms department and I applaud them for the service and assistance they afford licence holders. Well done Wiltshire !
