Thanks guys, you have confirmed my worst fears
Ah well, only another 7 weeks before I can officially call them.
I will probably call them around the 10 week mark, maybe sooner if the ID check hasn't come through, just to make sure that I'm actually on the system and in the queue.
When I was getting the club support form the club admin person said that the 28 day wait was waived for existing A/B holders so it should only take a couple of weeks to come through, I don't think she understood my confused look.
I've submitted my first PTA too and put a deposit on a pistol at the local gun store, it's going to be a long an painful wait, I'd mentally blocked what it was like last time but it's all coming back to me now. At least I can go shoot rifles and borrow club pistols whilst I wait so that's better than last time.
