From: "Alex Hamilton", [EMAIL PROTECTED] You are absolutely right, Steve. Just to be able to compete in Classic Self-Loader matches I had to have a Vest-Pocket pistol (Colt Mod.1908 in 25ACP), Pocket pistol (Mauser Mod. 1910 in 32ACP) and Service pistol (Luger 1915 in 9mm.Para) and there were

From: "VinceB", [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brian & others, I could compile a list of those rip-off dealers but two firms I have dealt with, who both specialise in mail-order and imports from the USA at good prices, are Reloading Solutions Direct and Wildcat Custom Rifles. If you want e-mails or phone n

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In response to all of these postings regarding price and direct imports, it never ceases to amaze me about the greed of the UK wholesalers and the grommet like qualities of the average UK FAC or SGC holder. I have been in the trade for 15 years and the main reason guns

From: "Alex Hamilton", [EMAIL PROTECTED] May I wade in on David Edwards's and Antony Harrison's exchange and say that I have also bought stuff direct from USA on several occasions in the past year and in each instance I paid a lot less that prices quoted here, even with VAT and duty added! Mr

From: andrew, [EMAIL PROTECTED] I really must object to the calling practise of importing goods as "smuggling", this is clearly wrong and implies that I am breaking the law by deliberately trying to evade duty. This is not the case and I can prove it. I buy a lot of my shooting kit from overse
