Cleaning up Somme ground-dug 303 Great War SAA.

I surprized that haven't passed a law making it illegal to dig-up and possess that. Their logic being, you might be able to use it in a rifle you can own.

It's generally covered under UK firearms legislation regarding live ammunition, it's a case of application of common sense really.

And, being an RFD means that Roger has no real problems with 'accounting' for ammunition.


My brother In law is a 'Journalist RFD' and is sent Rifles, ammunition, scopes and 'stuff' from most worldwide major manufacturers for review. He has 10,000's of rounds of 'assorted' ammunition, 'part boxes' of pretty much most calibres. They usually want the rifles returning but ammunition and accessories are just left to clutter up his gun-room.

He did a review of My L42 but didn't have any 7.62 so I supplied some - I didn't want him using some 'hot' 308.

He recently came back from 2 weeks in Argentina after being invited to a 'Goat Hunt' and to test out a new rifle.
He seems to spend a lot of time in Germany and Scandinavia at the invitation of European manufacturers.

Its a tough life but someone has to do it.

I beg to differ. I believe there is more combined common sense on this forum than all that possessed by all the "enlightened ones" who seek to control us.

Agreed.
But we are just 'a couple of thousand' out of the 7,800,000,000 population
