MrA Allready has Deer condition, but FC demand DSC, and will not let us even negotiate leases without DSC2. Not sure if the same condition is true south of the border. Needs Must. I'm afraid Quote Link to post

In principle I tend to agree with you, and more and more regions are insisting on DSC before granting the deer condition, even though it has no basis in law! Apparently the likes of the FC are looking for it too before handing out contracts! Nothing stands still, we all know that, and times change, but there was never any of this malarky back in the "good old days", and I can't say I remember a whole load of grief back then!!

mattydski 560 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 The condition for DSC2 has only come in this year, it used to be DSC1. Rang up to get the tender dates this year, and they wouldnt even register my interest???? Considering I only did DSC1 to be able to tender for FC leases 2 years ago, I am a little dissapointed to say the least that they have moved the goal posts yet again. Quote Link to post
Mr Adventure 0 Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I've had an open ticket for 25years but never paid it much attention. The DSC is a way to controle stalkers and there ability (don't know if its good or bad). I have had info about the issue of FAC's, if its target shooting you must be a member of a home office aproved club , ect , ect, ect........... but the latest for owing a 22 or center fire for stalking or vermin control you have to show not just a use but also competence to use such firarm. Before you can use an MOD range you must have the relivant trainning certificate which you can obtain through the NRA. I know that this is money making for the shooting organisations. But my way of thinking its giving the Poilce less to refuse my renewal. Quote Link to post
riohog 5,939 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 ah its the way it is another way at nipping away at fac holders what next it makes you wonder? some will just say f k it and give up which is of course exactly what issuing athorities want Quote Link to post
