Funnily enough, it was a couple of our newer members (that are also interested in buying a No.5) that spotted the AIA yesterday and asked me what it was.......
Decent No.5's are now getting very hard to find......such a shame that a well known firm imported 250 of them from a Far East source a couple of years ago, and all bar a couple of them got butchered into de-acts

Ours shoots very well ! We assumes you are all aware that AIA took a few precautions to avoid the stocks warping in transit through the tropics when they shipped them to Europe aren't you, and that you need to follow the instruction supplied with them before shooting them ? We can't think of any gun that will shoot accurately when the screws holding the stock to the action have been loosened off a few turns...
