    I joined for a while mate
    Had to shoot on sunday mornings olympic style 1st Got to say it was really boring one hand stuff.
    Did my required shoots etc but the club would not support my application for a B endorsement

    Couldn't get an official answer but was told because of my car ( evo9 ) I wasn't the "type" that they wanted at the club,
    Not even a speeding or parking ticket to my name just a failure to give way to rail way vehicle.

    Hopefully you have better luck out there

    That is just utter shit if the reason is true.
    I would be pissed if having supported the club by way of fees etc.
    What you own or do in your own time should have nothing to do with the club if you're a proactive member and fit and proper.

    Imo, if you are deemed fit and proper to have an A firearms licence you are fit and proper for all the others.
    I do agree with probation periods etc for a B.

    I heard something completely different regarding your b endorsement being declined. But thats the rumour mill for you. If it had any truth to it then it was probably reasonable.

    If there was no element of truth to it then i would be asking questions or trying again.

    Do you have any endorsements by the way?

    Would love to know as i couldn't get any answers. Feel free to just post as i have nothing to hide. Just got pulled aside and was told the club wouldnt support me was a group of 4 - 5 of them.
    Asked some questions including contacting pnz and was told to leave it as it would count agenst me if i applyed later in life.
    I currently have my a and e cat
