Shotgun certificate

[Salopian 5]

Hello, I have been putting off getting a shotgun certificate for a while now and just havn't got around to it. I was wonwering if a primary school teacher is an appropriate person to sign the certificate? I have known her for a long time and she is married to one of the farmers who's land I shoot on. Thanks Greg.

A teacher should be fine. It's a responsible, professional position in the community.

From my experience, anyone will do as long as they have a "professional" job. Now, that from what ive tried, means anyone in who works in an office, so that can be a customer service person, a sales person, a manager, an IT engineer. Basically anyone in an office. Of course, each licencing area may be different and when I first got my license I assumed it meant solicitors / doctors / lawyers and that type had to sign it, but the last 3 renewals I got anyone I knew in an office who had known me for over 12 months to sign and its been fine.

Thanks I'll get her to sign it for me then. Didn't want to pay the doctor £20, cheaky tw@t. As if he isn't making enough money.
