If you ask on a forum like this, it will only be peoples opinion based on the requirements of their particular police force firearms dept, you would be best advised to ask your Firearms enquiries officer, Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCetrizine Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 I moved mine to a different room and never notified them. When they came for a variation based chat, they never said anything. I guess they don't remember where everyone's cabinets are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillo Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 You do not have to specify the precise location on your FAC application or subsequent renewals or variations. Where it asks where the firearms are to be stored the advice I was give and always use since then is to state "in an approved cabinet in a secure place to prevent unauthorised access." I recently had cause to query a proposed new location because the guidance does say that the cabinet has to be fixed to the framework of the building and I need to fix a new cabinet to an internal wall so I contacted my FEO for advice. The moral is that if in doubt talk to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parkyboy Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Finally got round to talking to my feo today about moving my cabinets to another location in the house...in short its not a requirement for the feo to come out to check the cabinets fixing etc i just have to ring the force hq at middlemoor in exeter to say that they have been moved etc so they can update their records....Hugh.

parkyboy Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 There seems to be a great deal of variation in attitude to this matter depending on which force area you live in .....Hugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
