    After the old Sterlings were finally withdrawn in the late 90's I had a load of magazines still wrapped like that.

    So, who had these in stores? The SA80 appeared two decades before and wasn't it supposed to replace everything between pistol and belt-fed.

    Bet you wish you had "forgotten" that box (those boxes?) in the back of the closet of the years... haha.

    There is a gent on one of the MG sites I go to, that said he got 2 of those NIB with consecutive serial #. He said that he was going to shoot one and put the other in a safe. He said he was going to shoot one with his son and would be passing that one on to him.
    I asked if he wanted to adopt me!!!!!!!!

    Phil, I'd just suggest that he put BOTH in his safe and treat him and hios son to a day out shooting the shxx out of someone elses. The money he spends shooting someone elses will be MORE than recouped whern he comes to sell two new, still wrapped consecutively numbered L2's
