    Hi lad's,

    I ended up in a position where I've bought 3 rifles in the last 6 months, but my F.O. sent all 3 forms in together 8 weeks ago!!:eek::eek:

    I've recived 2 licences about 4 weeks ago but these were for small cal. rifles. Now I'm waiting for the licence for the .308 and still no sign. should I be worried?

    Should it take much longer than the other two since they all arrived on the super's desk at the same time :eek:

    I know the form are dated 6 - 7 months apart.

    Thanks,

    Fish

    The .308might be with the Chief Super in Portlaoise. Tullamore has no CS if that is your local station.

    you might have an interview. PM me for more details

    Unless the 308 is a semi, it shouldn't be on the Chief Superintendent's desk. Just as a Super can't approve restricted firearms a Chief Superintendent can't approve unrestricted ones.

    Phone your station and ask, always the best place to start.

    Not a semi - a Accuracy int AE

    Thing is I know the F.O. won't know anything , thats why all 3 went in at once!

    (run around?)
