Now its time to apply for my FAC and working out what to apply for.

The first application can be daunting - the form is straightforward but goes on for about 17 pages! If you want some help please do phone (that's part of what you are paying your membership for).

FAC posted
i have asked for
1x .22
1x 5.56/.223
1x .303
1x 7.62/.308
1x .38/.357
and asked for
1200 x.22 rounds
and 600 rounds for the rest, i expect that to be knocked down.
now the wait begins.

Well at least the local fire arms office has received my application. I forgot to sign one of the photos myself and it has come back to me for signing (oops) and is now back in the post box having missed todays collection by 10 minutes.

Hopefully things will happen reasonably quickly for you now.

just had a phone call to arrange meeting with the FAO have to get some biscuits in !!

A mix of chocolate and plain digestives always goes down well. I do remember Christel offering one FEO a slice of pizza which he politely declined.

just a quick question
Are 6.5mm and .260 the same calibre like 7.62/.308 or are they two distinct calibre's on there own.IE could i put .260/6.5mm as a single slot on a FAC application
