Hello,
Was just wondering if anyone has had any 'post'-covid dealings with Birmingham proofhouse, or otherwise know how busy they are at the moment?
Just got a gun in there at the moment and the money for it is burning a hole in my pocket like thermite in a polystyrene cup!

I know someone who dropped one off there very recently and I think they were told around 10 days.

Someone visiting Bisley to get a barrel replaced told me no last week. May change as the workload gets caught up of course.

They shut for part of the lockdown, my RFD had to collect my N.E.W Mosin sharpish back in March as they wanted all finished work out before they closed.

Turns out it’s taken longer than 10 days! If you’ve never been it really is like going back in time. Fully expected to see a bare foot street urchin sat by the door.
