    Hi everyone! Just wondering if somebody has a gun licence, can you be a named holder also or do you have to get your own license?

    You have to get your own licence, but it can be for the same firearm.

    So there's no way you can be on the same license?

    None. Licences name one person and one firearm only. For two people to be licenced on the same firearm, both require seperate licences.

    It would be a huge help. When applying for your own full license it would act as your previous experience,and should help you to avoid having to do a competency course.
