FAC application question.

So I’ve been a member of a local shooting club for 2 years now. I’ve been going consistently and have become an established member.

I usually shoot the club .22 rifle, and my own .177 air rifle.

I have put in some thought about getting a FAC for a .22 rifle in the last week, and curious if you think I could get rejected?

I’ve been taking sertraline for 4 years for anxiety, and also have a past history of recreational substance use which is on my NHS health record.

But I’ve also been sober for 4 years now, and have that written down on my NHS record with my GP.

I’m a 31 year old male.
