Once they make our semi auto .22's section 5, lets club together and start knocking out cheap .223 gating guns.

Agreed, if you are deemed fit, have somewhere suitable to shoot a particular firearm and storage space, you should be able to own anything you like (within reason).... how awesome would a 45/70 Gatling Gun be :D

No, if you are deemed fit, then you are "fit". Type, calibre, action or any other irrelevant factor, should not matter. Fitness is fitness....
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?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

Evidently, the "theory" would work....

So you do know of that colt 45/70 gat? How much would it break into the Greggs budget?

You mean like when Brococks were made into Sec. 1?
