Aye....got me for a while too.
...plus I've just remembered I'd had an enquiry the other week for a couple of Swiss slings!

How did you end up in Saskatchewan?
I moved to Ireland first, then France. By that time I realised that there was nothing stopping me going anywhere I wanted, the only thing that had held me back previously was lack of confidence and the ability to think outside the box.

I spent months driving all over Canada with the old woman before deciding that Saskatchewan was the best place in Canada to be. Canada is whatever you want, it varies enormously from place to place, probably because it is enormous :) .................................. There are six time zones in Canada, yet the whole country has less than half the population of the UK.

Saskatchewan is 1 1/2 times the size of the UK with a population of 1 million. People were not designed to live in a sardine can, space is important.

It's offset to the right by about .75" I just this minute came in after shooting it, it loves the GP11.

What a lovely refurbishment, your K31 looks stunning! I love the straight pull action of these very fine rifles and the way they throw the empty cases backwards over your head!

I get them in my jacket hood, much to the amusement of onlookers.

The K31 does indeed like GP11, I only wish I had better eyesight to make the best use of the impressive accuracy.
Careful now/that sort of thing
