    Some Forces have delays on forms of up to 3 months with Lincolnshire holding the winning ticket currently, but the staff do their best under prevailing circumstances not withstanding COVID.
    My advice would be to speak to your Force Firearms Licencing Officer personally which should be possible in the situation.
    Good luck mate as these are too good to let lie or have crushed!!
    3 Months?

    Hampshire are currently taking 6mths+ for variations. Applications might as well hibernate.

    I think Lincs are doing quite well

    Attached are two more of the cutaways a Germanicon zigzag and a Colt new service.
    Most people don't seem interested in cutaway firearms.
    The third one is one of mine.

    Eric,
    They were always intended to provide the hidden miracles on the true workings of a weapon, and the marvellous workmanship that went into thier construction and use.
    Some are more detailed than others but thats the limit to some workshops and time that it takes to build these.
    Great collection for anybody's office or workshop.
    Thanks for sharing.

    RoyW,
    Thats not good at all and in noones interest. Here in Cambs they only take a couple of weeks, so we all thought 3 months was well over the top, but clearly not lol
