Which Fac Gun

There is always one

IMO if you are considering all the hassle involved in putting in for a FAC, you might as well put down for a rimfire as well. If you don't get one in the 5 years of your ticket, then you don't, but if you decide you want to, you can.

Good point

Yes a good point but I have to say, I found it to be really hassle free but I may just have been lucky perhaps because I was not asking for live ammo FAC.

FAC is FAC. The hoops you jump through are the same whatever calibre you're after.

[philpot 4,928]

Hmmm I guess I was just lucky then Walshie.

Just hope i am that lucky

I just meant getting the referees, the permission slips, giving them your inside leg measurements, the interview, the cabinet etc, was enough hassle to warrant asking for more than one airgun.

I did ask if i would be able to have a open licence for FAC air but NO WAY she said

Ah, see where you are coming from.

In truth, I had to have a reference for my shotgun anyway and as I was renewing that at the same time as applying for FAC so only needed one more ref and job done.

Interestingly, the perm was much easier than I expected. I gave the farmer's name / address and the approx size of the perm which in this case was 250 acres, the farmer was not even contacted nor did I have to walk the firearms officer around the perm.

 

I know it is still an FAC but I think air FAC is not given the same level of importance as a live ammo FAC request.

 

I may well be totally wrong but I am lead to believe this is the case and of course I live in a rural region which could also have some bearing in this matter.
