I got mine two weeks after my fac and sgc renewal visit.
No visit for an AWL. Not sure how long for an AWL only .
How long does it normally take for a licience to be issued?
I've no medical issues or criminal history.
It will be for target shooting. T.I.A.

Police Scotland say it should take about 6 weeks at the moment to issue it. But having said that they are currently reorganizing the firearms licensing dept, so who knows.

I applied for mine at the same time as I completed the paperwork for transferring my FAC from South York’s to Perthshire on moving up here last year. Both came through after about two weeks and the home visit.(firearms not air guns)
Went quite well I thought.
“An airgun or two”………
Thanks for the excellent advice. I'd never thought to myself "I wish I'd remember about those stupid laws north of the border before now"
As it happens they have told me they don't issue them anymore to people who don't reside in Scotland. Visitors permits only from now on.
According to the police Scotland website there is a visitors permit AWL3, how long it takes them to process is another matter.

I only know this as one of the guys at my regular shooting ground is up in Skye for work and fancied taking his rifle, so we looked it up.
