Speak for yourself mate! Infact my shotgun license and firearms license expire in about a month (I don't think I'll bother renewing it, no need for one over here).

Welcome. Good luck with your visa application.

Thanks, well I think there is quite tight restrictions on firearms licensing in the uk.

With the letter from my doctor, police interviews, arrangments to store the guns and regular armed response units at my door it was nice really.

My guns over here are propped in the corner of the room! The police thought I was joking when I asked them what restrictions there were with regards to owning rifles!
