  1. I once had a quick flutter wirh a Berreta Prevail of which had ejectors which you could 'switch off' by a screw on the ejector assembly.
    Worked OK but the case only extracted about 1/4 inch and was diffucult to remove, would have been a nightmare in gloves.

    Gun now history, bit of a gimmick I thought.

    Hello, to be honest I think Barbour have gone over to the yuppy brigade where once it was a well liked winter wet coat  for country folk, now it's a bit of a fashion show, the vintage ones seem to fetch ££££ssss like my old solway zipper, I would just power wash  , let it dry and rewax , your always get muck in the creases, there are other companies that make a quality wax coat, , saying this I often find Barbour coats 2nd hand, my border cost £20

    Solway Zipper,  Iv'e had 2 of of them over the decades. You even got a belt and hood with them. Paid £9. twele and sixpence for the first.
    Moorland jacket was a cracker too.

    The good old days what.

  3. Got another gun with a rather nice stock.  Stock is oiled finished.
    The gun is a Browning Heritage 11 the damage to the the stock is a small 2"x 1" where slight denting had
    occured. I sorted this with a few strokes of 800 grade a ad finished with 2000 grade. All looked fine.
    On re oiling stock came up great except the area where the damage occured, in that area now it appears dry and dull.
     

    Any help would be welcomed.

    Thanks

  4. If the choke has a twist, however slow, it is probably  classed as a firearm as the barrel is.
    This I read in Gough Thomas' Second Gun book. He took advice from his local police, but with no result but it may be a bona fide applicant could possibly
    apply for the FAC to use a slow twist barrell/choke. This I have read from Gough Thomas' book and these are not my opinions.

     

    From the above book chapter  'Short range devices'
