Colin James Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 It's the last weekend of our firearms surrender campaign. Please take this opportunity to hand in any unlicensed or unwanted firearms so we can safely destroy them. 372 firearms handed in so far across West Mercia and Warwickshire policing areas. http://www.westmercia.police.uk/…/final-weekend-of-firearms… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dippyhippy Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Blimey! 50 firearms have been handed in across Herefordshire! Only Shrewsbury had a higher number, with 53. Brilliant that these are out of circulation, and can be destroyed before they could fall into the wrong hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubique Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I hope people know that the Police will accept surrendered firearms at any time , you do not have to wait until a Surrender Campaign. When my mother went into a Care Home 3 years ago Mrs U and I had to clear her home and found two .22 pistols , I wasn't able to ascertain from my mother who suffers from dementia- ( now 93 ) where they came from -with hindsight I believe that my Grandmother who lived for some time in the USA carried them in her handbag in the USA . I as NOK certainly didn't want them so I surrendered them at Hereford Police Station . I advised the Clerk what was in my bag and where they were found , assuring her that they were not loaded and presented them to her . Completed a surrender form , job done.
