Yep, but ask him how many bullets yu can get in the barrel at any one time..... :55: :55:

Far too nice a gun for a fat handed hamster to own...... Unfortunately, my cunning plan to prise it from his unappreciative sausage fingers fell at the first cut of a "deactivators saw"..... Bugger!!! :bad:
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Back to orginal question Jeff, how much are you looking to spend? Only ask because you could get the Smith & Wesson M29 LBR from the S&W Performance Centre..... In the region of £3K by the time it gets into the UK though!

Very tempting but I only got £380 for the rifle I sold :bad: I have a budget of around £500-£800 max but cheaper the better with Xmas fast approaching!.

I'd really like a Competitor Pistol in 44, 308 or even 38/357 or similar calibre but can't find one anywhere and short of doing a bit of "Badger Culling" and robbing the sett armoury I don't know anyone who has one.

So, looks like I'm going to have to let the two possible slots go, I have until Thursday to notify them of the sale and put in any request so will see if anything comes to mind. I could of course add a second sec.1 shotgun for PSG in semi-auto or a pump with sights fitted?.

Also emailed Mark Bradley about a 300 straight pull :lol:
