Many forces won't issue temporary permits unless your renewal is in at least eight weeks before expiry, which with GP's delaying the medical report, even if they refuse and you have to use a separate medcert company their office staff delay sending your file to the companies for week's, currently 6 weeks and counting in my case, so I'll be putting mine in storage. My father had an Inspector and Sgt turn up one evening whilst waiting for his renewal a day after his FAC had expired thanks to the local station collator doing a daily sweep on every certificate holder in their area, they demanded his guns so they could confiscate then, he refused as they had no warrant from a magistrate, got up early next day and put them in storage. He found 4 officers with a magistrates warrant waiting for for him when he got home, his renewal took 6 months, FEO wasn't happy local officers had involved themselves without good reason, especially trying to confiscate without being instructed to do so.
