So after a two year break, where I let my license lapse I’m applying for a shotgun licence. It seems that where I am (Essex) the process has been revamped and is now very quick, the delay is that I now have to supply a form completed by my GP, dropped that in the surgery yesterday and was told that as the doctor does it in private time I have to expect it to take 3-4 weeks and cost £60 +vat! Talk about “over a barrel” £60 to do a 5 minute job and there is nowhere else I can get it done.

Anyway, just wondered who’s else shoots and what you use, last gun was a Blazer F3 but I’m looking at a Browning Cynergy this time round.
