I used a piece of 18mm plywood the same size as the cabinet then drilled through that and fixed cabinet with chem bolts. That allows the cabinet to sit on the floor but clears the skirting board. on inspection, the FEO said it would have been fine sitting on top of the skirting. as others have...

Non as yet, as a returnee to the sport I put my application in a week before 1st lockdown, I’ve now got it. I was waiting for matters to improve but that isn’t happening. i have had a few lessons now and narrowed down my choice so hopefully once matters do improve, my total will be 1! Kev

Hi Jezza im just down the road from Fauxdegla and waiting for my SGC to arrive before starting to shoot there again (long break from the sport)  Kevin

Late update. Doc issued the gp form back to me within a week, they even took the trouble to ring me and see if I wanted to collect it, well impressed. all went to the authority via registered post and we will await a development. regards

Evening Has anyone got a 525sl that they have had for a while? just wondering how you are finding the laminate, heavy or fine? I have a few air rifles with laminate stocks and like the look and function. regards Kevin

My request went in to the practise earlier, let’s see how long it takes. referee form has been dropped off for completing too. Kev

just for information, I emailed the firearms licensing dept regarding MedCert and they have confirmed they will not accept it, will be a right challenge getting my Health Centre to complete my form. Kevin 

Evening everyone. Has anyone used MedCert (successfully)  in lieu of their GP when applying for a SGC? regards Kevin

Just checked the NWP site and they are now accepting new applications, there is a minimum 16 week application period and the requirement for the GP medical report now applies (pre covid it wasn’t required). We don’t have a doctor at our health centre, they rely on locus so I am considering...

It’s the home visits that is the problem, so unless that is resolved at some point or alternative methods of inspection are adopted, I can’t see my SHC being progressed anytime soon. Kev

I sent an email to the North Wales Police enquiring when the embargo on issuing new SGC and received a reply saying it won’t be for the foreseeable. Never mind. hopefully the situation will sort itself out and I can perhaps reapply later this year. might even get some tuition booked at some...

At least mine is a new cert so don’t have the problem of any existing guns. Before 1st April, NWP were not asking for a GP cert but the policy will now change so it’s now a requirement. 1st world problem at the moment. Kev

Thanks Jan i will take your advice once we get through the current situation. might even have received a refund from NWP by then. Kev

Once this current situation passes us by and North Wales Police start accepting Applications, I am considering using MedCert instead of my own GP (We don’t have a GP locally, just a medical centre that brings locums in). Have any of you good people used MedCert ? Regards and stay safe. Kevin

Went to Stockport to pick up a Brattonsound RD7+ cabinet in readiness for my sgc inspection. Kev

Lovely problem to have. Kev

Just outside of LLangollen  where is that advertised please? Kev

Afternoon Hope you are all safe and secure in this awful weather. i need to get my SG cabinet bought and fitted. Has anyone dealt with this online company ‘Safe’, their single gun cabinet looks fine for my needs. Thanks in advance Kevin

Ah I’m quite jealous Martin, any images of it?  I hope that once I’ve had some tuition and my cert has come through I can find something modern that I enjoy as much. regards and thanks  Kevin
