I rang weapons licencing today and they were rude and told me they are hoping to get all applications started in 3-4 months and pretty much told me not to call them they will call me .
Anyway I know this thread has been done before but the one I found on here is a bit old and it seems the time frames are changing all the time. I thought I would throw this one up so anyone who has recently put an application in can follow this and have an idea of what's gong on.
