Quickest variation ever?

#1 Post by paxtond »

A big thanks to herts firearms team.

Sent in a request for 8 slots adding on to my ticket and some condition changes.
Sent on Tuesday.

Licence back on my mat this morning.

So far I have never had a complaint about them.


What sort of times are you guys having to deal with.

Nice and quick how it should be :good:

I had a 1 for 1 variation done while I wait (Wiltshire)

I was amazed at how quick I got my shotgun licence, 2 weeks from application to getting it!
Though I did already have a FAC.

Saying that I've been waiting from Hants police to clear some land for 6 months now.

Warwickshire have often returned my variation requests the same working week.

Paxtond, We are under Beds and Herts and after a minor hickup during the changeover to the new offices everything was back on track and the usual superb service was restored. I usually dealt direct with Eddie however they are all very good, who is the FEO for your area?

For a variation? Four months and counting.

Three months wait just to tell me they had an issue with it and could I resubmit...

Mind you... "that Sig P226 looks nice". ;) ;) :55:

Trevor is our feo, and marry takes care of the paper work.
I don't think there has been a unhelpful person called Mary in the history of civilisation

I also happen to be close friends with the office managers step daughter and that ways helps lol

Not the quickest ever... Thames Valley used to turn variations round for me on a while-you-wait basis pretty regularly. They were fantastic! (and half the time I didn't even have to wait - I'd email or phone and say what I wanted, and then head up to Kidlington - new ticket at the desk, old one taken off me, all good)
I think it's changed since those days mind.

I've received similar service for 1-1 or ammo increases but never for a request of new cal.
