Heh hem, bobbob is a nickname, I'm a girly :lol:
No, don't have a warehouse but judging by prices I've seen while searching, I wish we did have.

That's OK. Happened a lot when I was a kid
Have you tried these people for parts?

Morning Bobbob,
Trouble is, getting our American cousins to send anything firearm related across the great pond, it's a curious paradox that the Yanks have no issue with people wondering about in the woods with Ak's and Ar15's.....but they have kittens if you try to import/export (unrestricted in the UK) firearm components, the aforementioned ejector block for example, or even weapon magazines and Military scopes!
Strange world we live in mate!
Cheers, John.

Does anyone have a copy of the letter the Home Office sent to Anglo Custom Rifle Company about the FN FALs? I am in discussion with someone from the Home Office firearms department about this and it would be really helpful if I could have a copy please.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Craig.

Why not ask Anglo Custom Rifles?

There's no financial motive for Gavin to provide a copy, if he doesn't have any for sale.

Well isn't the correspondence between ACR and the HO their business and no one else's. I'm sure if you ask Gavin there are only two possible answers, yes or no. A no from ACR would be entirely understandable but Gavin would probably be more than happy to help as along as there is no commercial motive behind your enquirey.
