Well you know which box to tick on your application so

Old man's .22 and shotgun both put out till 31Jan. He doesnt want the hassle of getting a safe, so I've plenty of time to get an app in for his .22. Mine is 31Oct. Will have to convince them my pistol is designed for Olympic Disciplines (which it is BTW) :rolleyes:

Bigred, you're one of the few I know who can actually show that their pistol is designed for the Olympics because that's the manufacturer's design brief!

Feinwerkbau P44 - top class piece of kit. Pricey though (€1300). Learnt my trade on an old russian IZH46M - same model Sparks has.

Well single shot air pistols don't tend to have a lot of other uses. Especially ones with foot long barrels* and one-handed grips.

Are people still receiving these extension letters - or put it another way, have people received some, but not all of their expected letters? I got the extension letter for my rifle a week ago, but my pistol letter still has not arrived:(

i have 4 firearms and iv gotten 2 renewal letters for two of them posted on different dates, 1 letter for one of the other ones and none for the last one.

all the letters i got where for the 31 october so i just reapplied for the 4 firearms together.

.243 express

31st October 2009 ...No restricted stuff(3guns)

ormondprop

we got five of them on the same day, all expire on 31st of january, went into the garda station to get the forms and the garda chatted away to me for ages explaining what she could about it, she told me not to bother applying until about christmas as they have too many to process before ours and wont do anything with ours till about then anyway, and just incase its put aside or lost while they process others, that we'd be better off holding out for a while before bringing them in

I wouldn't be waiting around asking questions on here - go to your FO urgently and ask/write looking for the letter or a copy of one that may have gotten lost in the post, as technically your fourth is not licenced now...

when i dropped off the forms for the others and that one he told me not to worry about it, and i brought up the same point you made and i was told its a new system and there are bound to be glitches!!!!:(
