A firearms medical exam is an important part of the process of getting or renewing a firearms licence to make sure that both the applicant and the public are safe. At SimplyMedicals, we know that firearms medicals are more than just a way to check off a box. They are an important element of encouraging proper gun ownership.
What is a firearms medical?
A firearms medical is a thorough health check that determines if someone is healthy enough to get a firearms permit. It usually means looking at your medical history, your current health, and any past or present issues that would make it hard for you to safely handle guns.
A GP or other qualified medical expert fills up the medical report, which is then sent to the appropriate licensing authority.
Our GMC-registered doctors at SimplyMedicals are experts in firearms medicals and have a lot of experience writing accurate, professional reports that fulfil the needs of police forces all around the UK.
Why it’s important to have a full health history
A full health history gives you a full picture of how your body and mind are doing. This includes things like depression, anxiety, epilepsy, or drug abuse that have happened in the past and can affect judgements about licensure.
If you are honest about your medical history, your application will go through more quickly and you will be less likely to be turned down or delayed. Also, your health history helps the doctor figure out if there are any illnesses that need more testing or continuous care, making sure you stay fit and safe to own and use a gun responsibly.
