    If I get this right than Sparks when not renewing the options are store, sell or destroy and the person granting authorisation for possession (Supt. AGS) in the first place is the one who has to be satisfied that destruction has taken place. How exactly that's done is not cast in stone.

    A lot more straightforward in the North, hand them in at your nearest station, fill in the paperwork and walk away and the guns are destroyed in a centralised location.
