    I have heard that, and seems to be true two lads that have permission to shoot around us have applied for club membership to avoid "The hassel"

    They live in the area they are knand have someone who will "propose them and second them = no hassel

    A well we welcome members**:D

    I'm guessing they'll need to be dated.

    I'm guessing you're right :D

    The thinking being that you have to prove on an ongoing basis that the reasons you gave to have a firearm are still valid.

    dusty, as far as i could gather it was that you have to get either your old permissions renewed or new ones for your licence application.
