The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Just received a letter from JSW Insurance and I quote
"Following a change in commercial strategy the insurance capacity provider for Bulletproof is withdrawing the product on a phased basis."
And then goes on to tell me when my cover ends.

Any recommendations as to another insurer?

Insurance for what?

Shooters Insurance

BASC or NRA?

For commercial insurance we use http://guncover.co.uk/

“Bulletproof Insurance” gave me Public Liability cover and also Firearms Licence Legal Expenses cover.
I took this insurance to cover one of the conditions on my FAC namely that I had “adequate financial arrangements in place to meet any injury or damage claim”

So who do you use for your shooters insurance?

Double check your home contents insurance. Mine gives third party liability insurance up to £5 million

I take it that you are looking for insurance in relation to sporting shooting rather than just target shooting which is normally covered by your club's insurance when shooting in conjunction with the club.

If you are looking for personal public liability insurance for shooting have a look at all the shooting organisations including the Scottish Gamekeepers Association, BASC, National Gamekeepers organisation and the National Organisation for Beaters and Pickers up. Then compare the benefits of membership and of the insurance policies involved. You will find that many of these organisations use the same underwriters and that's costs vary considerably. You may be pleasantly surprised.

+1 for Guncover as commercial insurers.
S Johnson (Guncover brokers) are very helpful and call me after they send anything out via email just to make sure I haven't missed it (they must know me better than I think). They also cover me for commercial miniature rifle use, no issues when I asked about it and only a slight additional cost.

Our premium went up a couple of quid with Guncover this year, it is hard to complain about that :)
