    David Grayson

    CLAY INSTRUCTION

    Dave has been a regular part of the Orston Instructor Team for over a year now and we can’t remember what it was like before we had him!

    He has over 50 years shooting experience in the field. As a CPSA qualified instructor and member of the Institute of Clay shooting instructors, Dave is highly qualified to teach both beginners and competition shots.
    He has also shot clays competitively for over 15 years, with success at all levels; County, Regional, National and Internationally. So you are in perfect hands if you are a competent shot who needs coaching.
    Dave is such a lovely and personable man, we highly recommend him for anxious people and those who need encouragement.

    FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT SHOTGUN OWNERSHIP

    DO I HAVE TO KEEP MY SHOTGUN AT HOME?

    No – you do not.

    Within your shotgun application form, in the section referring to storage of shotguns, you could simply state that if you were to purchase a gun you would store it at a local gun club, such as Orston Shooting Ground. We do offer long term and short-term storage options dependant on your situation. Storage is free to Club Orston members. Alternatively, you can also store it at another license holders address. We also offer options for clients who would like to purchase a shotgun prior to receiving their license, enabling them to shoot with their own gun on their lessons at Orston SG. See available guns for sale here.

     

    DO I HAVE TO PURCHASE A SHOTGUN?

    No – you do not. 

    Many people have a shotgun license and do not own a shotgun. We have guns available to hire for shotgun license holders here at Orston. The price is FREE for members of the club and £20.00/gun for non-members.

    THE PROCESSING OF YOUR APPLICATION

    Your shotgun license can take anything between 6 weeks to 6 months to process depending on your local constabularies processing time. Usually the process goes like this:

     

    1. Your cheque will be banked
    2. You will receive a call from your local firearms licensing officer who will arrange an interview you.
    3. When a suitable interview date is agreed he/she will want to ask you some safety questions (most of which we will have gone through within your lessons) and ensure you are safe to have a shotgun certificate. He/she will also check your security within your house and check that it is sufficient to store shotguns within it.
    4. Providing your interview has been successful along with your medical check and reference check you will then receive your shotgun license in the post usually 2-4 weeks after completion of your interview once signed off by the head of firearms for your county.

    REFERENCES & MEDICAL CHECKS

    Amongst your shotgun license application form you will be asked to complete a medical check and supply two references. 

    Your references will be contacted at some point throughout your application process before approval. 

    You can get your medical check completed by your doctor, however recently the doctors’ fees are varying and timescales differ, so in some instances it is easier to apply through Med Cert, who charge a flat fee and have a good turnaround time. 

    APPLYING FOR YOUR LICENSE

    If you’re wanting to take shooting further at this stage, we would suggest applying for your shotgun license. This is a certificate that authorises you to purchase shotguns and ammunition. If you’re wanting to go shooting alone or hire a shotgun you will need to gain a certificate in order to do so. This certificate lasts for 5 years.

    You apply via your local firearms department, part of your local police force. Typically, local to us is Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Leicestershire although you may be reading this article from further afield! Typically, this is/would have been in paper form, however in recent times certain firearms departments have moved to an online system so it is worth checking with your local department online prior to filling out a form (below). The cost of a shotgun certificate is a one-time fee of currently £80.00.  You can find your local firearms department, by simply searching on the internet ‘County Name’ Firearms department.

    When applying for your shotgun certificate the application form will be for both firearms and shotguns. For clarification when firearms are referred to, it means ‘rifles’ so therefore is not relevant to a shotgun application form.
