fac

Hi all, Hope this is the right place on the forum to ask (admin please tell me if not!). I am looking at getting one of these shotguns, in 12 bore I'm pretty sure, for pigeons etc. It will be FAC as I have an open slot on my FAC for one, and am thinking about 7+1 I think. However, I am...

Hi everyone, My name is Sean. just joined here as a member after finding a lot of answers i was looking for on google regards my FAC application and see its a great place for information. I have had a big interest in hunting and Deer management for years and get out stalking with friends...

My name is Jim, I’ve been shooting for the past 10 years. Stalking for the last 8. I’ve got a .243 which I use for the fallow, roe and fox in my area, and then 22lr and 22fac air rifle for rabbits. 12 gauges and 410s as well. I’ve only ever shot outside of my family farm twice. Cornwall for reds...

Dear All, As a Scottish FAC holder I would like to know more about the differences between Scotland and England/Wales in terms of Firearms Laws and Licensing (sorry for leaving out Northern Ireland!). My questions are as follows: 1- Are there any major differences between Scottish and English...

For anyone applying for an FAC grant in the greater London area, thought I'd relay my recent experience. It took 4 months after submitting my FAC application (and after several follow ups to ask for an update ) before an FEO from the Met finally contacted me to arrange an inspection at my...

Hi Everyone! I’m new here! Currently getting back into shooting, but my previous experience has only been shooting air rifles. I haven’t got my FAC but this is something i’m looking to obtain. In terms of the shooting i’d like to do, it’d be target shooting and vermin, foxs, rabbits, deer ect...

Good Morning gentleman, I have for sale my Daystate Air ranger .22 40ftlb , it is a lovely gun but unfortunately it is taking up precious cabinet room and I just don’t use it anymore. It is in near mint condition. I get roughly 50 shots per charge. I am selling it with its scope a MTC...

I submitted my application for SGC and FAC to police Scotland 16 weeks ago. I have done my medical report and had my interview all checked out. The FEO advised me that he finished the enquiry on the 30th of November so... I called the Edinburgh firearms team today where my application is being...

Hi, selling my Mossberg New Haven 600AT pump action shotgun. FAC 5 + 1 so requires section 1 authorisation to acquire. 27.5” barrel, 14” stock/LOP. Fibre optic bead, multi choke, 3” chamber. Used well but in reasonable condition and fully functioning. Small dent to fore end, usual marks on mag...

Hi all, am a fairly new member and recently started shooting - at Bisley and have done a couple of days stalking in the South West going after Reds and Roe, just taken Roe so far, greatly enjoying it! Plan to get up to the highlands in August, and shoot some driven boar in Europe in the Autumn...

Hi all, curious as to maybe I have misunderstood TVP quality target for FAC grants, their target is currently listed as 60 working days and to date I have been waiting 125 working days, excluding one or two for bank holidays (receipt of delivery was given as the 7th of May). This seems highly...

Hi all, bit-time foxer having a good year, most done in thermal (NO its not Cheating!!) also some deer but not into the work once its dead so don't do much of that.

On the BASC website, it says expanding ammo reverts to Sec 1 from May 2nd, 2017. I currently have FAC for target ammo only and was about to go through the prolonged variation process. Does it mean that from 2nd May onwards, people like me (who only have target ammo on FAC) can freely buy...

Hi there, I am looking for either someone to book with for the end of this year or early next year for some Sika/red/Fallow culling in/nr Sussex? Or a possible syndicate opening (Happy to pay for grounds with good population. I stalk with a good friend who tends to like to follow and watch/help...

I'm generally very impatient when it comes to Royal Mail, so I might be making something out of nothing. I sent my FAC in for a variation on Monday by First Class Signed For (I asked for recorded, but didn't realise until after that it no longer exists). It was posted early on and therefore...

Hi All, I'm looking to apply for my FAC very soon and will be installing a cabinet. However, we intend to move house in the next year or so and with this in mind I'd like to install it in my family home down the road. This is my folks house, they're happy with it and would not have access to...

Hi all, Couple of quick questions if I may, I am considering reloading my own ammo soon, and am not sure about a couple of things: Are loose (expanding or otherwise) bullets to be entered on my license, and therefore to account for part of my allowed ammo holding? Or is the quantity only...

Anyone know how long Herts & Beds are turning over Variations at the minute ? sent mine in a week ago and just wondering if im in for a long or short wait ... window shopping for rifles is only fun for a little while!! :) thanks Tim

Evening all, Since destroying my knee ligaments several years ago and thereafter not being able to play rugga, I have taken up the equally adrenaline fuelled pursuits of shooting, hunting and fishing with considerable vigour! I have been wildfowling for the last two years and am currently a...
