FAC application is in the post

[rid the gent]

So just posted my FAC application to Northumbria police.
Hopefully doesn’t take long!!

My renewal expires early September and the Police told our club to tell members to respond straight away to their renewal letters. So I did in June - within 48 hours. I would have done it sooner but they sent the form in Acrobat format, which was ok except after I'd spent hours filling it in and saving it I couldn't recover an editable version to finish it off. They obviously haven't realised that we don't all have a full subscription to Acrobat at £15 a month! No biggie, I just filled it all in again the next day in one sitting (important!), and printed it. I haven't heard back yet and early September is looming....

Lincolnshire has gone to all applications being completed on-line which is great, however you also need a letter from your GP which people tend to forget/ignore. No letter no FAC or SGC and we currently have 8-9 guns sitting in the armoury because customers decided such rules did not apply to them.

Good luck with your application.

Been trying for months to get my son an FAC and SGC as a mirror to mine (application all complete other than medical letter). GMP are not currently accepting new application (that was the case the last time I spoke to them a few weeks ago). Also, our GP will not issue the medical letter (not something they do apparently).

So just an update, I’ve received a letter from my GP saying they received notice of my application from Northumbria police and my GP would like £35 for the pleasure to fill in the medical letter.
At least I know it’s moving along!

Glad to hear it's moving along for you, but the cheek of your G.P to ask for payment, sounds annoying/ridiculous to me.
