DShK and a container of 12.7x108

More than a vested interest in 7.62x54r!

A Lewis Gun and a .455 mark VI Webley service revolver.
(although to a certain extent I already have both but they are a gas firing replica and deactivated example respectively)
I'm told the Full Auto novelty wears off when you get the ammunition bill!

Re: What would you buy, if there were no restrictions whatso
ONLY what was robbed from me by the new useless laws brought in by inept politicians:
M1 Carbine
AR15A2
Colt Gold Cup Mk4 Ser 70
Colt Python 6" blued
Colt New Service .455 (NOT lost/stolen as such, as the one I own is is on a mate's S.7 at present)
Walther P38 - postwar commercial
S&W M41 target pistol 7 3/8"
Quite fancy a Garand & an SVT 40 = though a Swede AG42 Ljungman would take some beating!
Smaller - a cheap to feed kp31, a semi conversion would be ok
Handguns - worked for Browning but never got around to owning a BHP - so the Competition/Practical two-tone model would be good & I recently handled some Swiss Lugers = never had an itch for a P08 until I saw the build quality of those versions
Basically, anything that the 1968 Firearms Act says is ok but the post-68 Amendments decided were evil personified.
BUT lives MUST be saved, NOTHING to do with population control or votes....why else would they bring in such post-68 bans?
Anyway, nipping out to buy some booze & fags for a neighbour, deliver the deep fried pizza & blue pop for the school canteen, then finally call into the local hospital to see if Mrs.A still needs bleach.

MP 38, MP 40, Thompson 1928A1, Sterling, BREN gun, MG42. I think that about covers it.
Re: What would you buy, if there were no restrictions whatso
Thankfully her madge paid me to shoot all sorts over the years, so I have no hankerings really.
I guess a nice LMT semi automatic with en Elcan 1-6x DR would sit nicley. Dunno what the mob call the sharpshooters rifle now but they seem to go well.
Nothing too exotic that I cannot afford to feed or have problems finding somewhere to use....wouldn't mind my old 436 on the drive but that's doable without an FAC

I think a Gyrojet with an unlimted supply of ammunition would be pretty neat - both the rifle and pistol versions.
