RAMCAM 4 Posted March 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 i had my interview with the FAO on thursday for my SGC i no its not a FAC but they want to know what you will use it for, where you will use it, why you want it... a fac is for any bullet gun not just air rifles. i have been told on several occasions that a FAC is much much harder to get than a shotgun certificate and that they go into much more detail. but the officer said he cant see any problems with my application so i was well pleased.. you need to do your homework when applying for a fac or sgc.... I only want mine for a 30ftp air rifle enough to fire a 21 grain .177 pellet to 800fps. Quote Link to post

RAMCAM 4 Posted March 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 no.........every 5 years, unless your naughty. That ain't so bad. Thanks Sean The renewal visit is the easy bit...getting your certificate to start with can be fun!!!! Even more so living in a city. I payed for a room in a night club for my partner's birthday party only to find out on the day that i could'nt have it due to an idiot shooting a gun in the air the night before and the cops had to make a run for it, i was well pissed off so asked my brother who ownes a security company if he knew of any other clubs with a room for hire and he said yes but he recently fitted security cameras there because a women security guard got shot in the back two weeks ago.
