RFD conditions

#1 Post by dodgyrog »

I got a call from Durham saying that there was a change in conditions on some/all RFD certificates and I would be getting a new cert in the post.
Anyone else heard of this - apparently relating to servants of the business.
BTW there is a cock on the addresses of some FAC/RFD holders because of a 'melding' of two computer systems so look out if it affects you (Durham only I think)
Purveyor of fine cast boolits.
All round good guy and VERY grumpy old man.

There was something in Kent a year ago or so, where all servants of the RFD had to be declared in order to ensure they were not prohibited persons in relation to s21 FA Act 1968.

Rumour was an ex convict had blagged a job in a gunshop.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

Bedfordshire insisted on knowing and checking any Servants and we advised Lincolnshire accordingly when we moved here so it could be this is something already in place for some counties.

Keeping live-in servants is not cheap these days. Someone has to foot the bill! ;)
