The barrel measures 25ish inches muzzle to chamber so I assume it’s classified as a 26” LOP is about 14” let me know if you need anything more accurate than that

For Sale Benelli Nova 12G Pump Action Sect2 SGC Nice honest Benelli Nova multi choke magnum chamber steel proofed renowned as being the gamekeeper’s favourite due to their robustness I believe that I have all the chokes and the choke key for this gun but will confirm that before sale Operates as it should and shoots great there’s a very slight mark on the butt that would polish out (I included a photo but couldn’t get it on a photo that shows well - it’s very minor but I want to be transparent) and there’s no gouges or anything Great gun only selling as I have another Benelli - £250 or near offers Hertfordshire / Bisley by arrangement or RFD

Shame I was looking for a Skoda SUV! 😉

Sorry didn’t see that I need to check

Might be worth checking out but someone from the post office told me to check carefully because you can ship certain (alkaline etc) batteries and you can ship ni-cad batteries but it’s lithium batteries that are an issue but I think you can still ship them inside an item (e.g. so you can use it out the box)

Hi if it’s still available I’d be interested D

Back in the 70s and 80s my family ran a small string of garages that did petrol, car sales, service and recovery. Over time we developed the most comprehensive recovery capability in the county. We always found ourselves dealing with police AA RAC Green Flag etc and the AA were appalling, they would leave broken down families for hours and hours without recovery home if they couldn’t repair quickly in the hope of using one of their own vehicles to save money - and of course they would do that RELAY service when they take you to Birmingham then drop you and you wait for the next transport to pick you up. I swear I decided never to buy AA! RAC on the other hand would always make a quick decision and most of the time would just authorise the garages to transport the break down directly to their homes without a 3 hour wait So since 1983 I was a member of the RAC and admittedly when I was young and had unreliable cars I did make use of them quite a bit in the 2000s though my main car was mostly covered by extended warranty and I pretty much stopped calling them but the price just went up and up and up until I was paying more than twice what a new member would pay even though I had like 10 years no claims I have now switched to the AA and am paying about 1/3 what my RAC renewal would be - ridiculous! Just treat customers as a cash cow now and don’t give a toss about service

Yes please if still available

Not every case but what makes it easier for us is I hold the keys and her shotgun is on my SGC - she doesn’t mind that but I can see others might As well 2-3 gun safes are so available I’d just put hers in a separate safe to avoid that faff

I am not a lawyer so satisfy yourself of the laws and this doesn’t constitute advice to anyone but my understanding is as follows….. Is a shotgun a firearm ? Well they are defined within section two of the firearms act and top right of your SGC it probably says “firearms form 204” - so I’ll let that go at that point! There’s two separate things to consider 1) A firearm 2) A controlled component A stun gun as in Taser is covered by the Firearms act so realistically trying to think of “what is a firearm” in the method of “when do a collection of components become a firearm” is probably not a really good way to think about it. A Taser has none of those things no pressure bearing parts but you can still be prosecuted under the firearms act for possession, and in the eyes of the law it’s a firearm. If you consider the function rather than the construction** that’s more in line with the law. Components that are not controlled (in UK) can be freely purchased by anyone such as stock hand guards triggers hammers springs magazines* but If you want to buy controlled components such as a barrel, bolt, receiver etc (commonly understood to be “pressure bearing parts” as already mentioned) you need it on your FAC or if it’s a shotgun barrel action or whatever needs to be written on the SGC * it’s interesting that magazines are explicitly stated as not being controlled in the firearms act or the respective guidelines because in a S1 shotgun the magazine can be removed and can hold more than two shots but go ask an RFD to sell you a Glock 17 mag - no problem Try the same for a pump/semi automatic shotgun magazine and I think you will find more eyebrow raising going on I think the law says you can buy a magazine but some RFD had told me I need to show a S1 shotgun FAC to buy a mag tube capable of more than 2 rounds ** The other thing to consider is that the overall length and barrel length are in some cases the difference between a firearm/shotgun being a section two, section one or section five - so two otherwise identical 9mm garden guns can be a S2 or S1 just by having a shorter barrel and two otherwise identical pump action shotguns can be a S2 or a S5 (prohibited) if the barrel is shorter Conclusion for me is that if you own any kind of firearm including deactivated or obsolete you should try and get a good working knowledge of the laws - although they are written in gobble-a-duke (thanks Baldrick) once you get your head around how they are written and what is law and what is guidance (and what’s old wives tales) you’ll be doing yourself a favour when your ticket gets renewed. PS don’t forget other laws also apply in this space such as the Violent Crime Reduction Act and the Explosives Act - as well as don’t forget to read the text on the FAC/SGC and the home office firearms guidelines phew!

I’d be interested in both die sets please

Lovely old school RTO from the renowned G&J W Hawksley £45 posted

Top shotgun is a Cooey 84 Bottom shotgun is the Astra Vanguard for sale

I have an Astra Vanguard .410 which is a clone of a Cooey 84 break barrel single shot shotgun if you want to see what it looks like just google Cooey 84 and you'll see a few of these advertised around £60-100 so I am hoping this is attractive to someone fairly local to Hitchin or genuinely prepared to come and get it. It has a 27.5" barrel and a 14.75" LOP (but it doesnt seem that long!). It is an old school hammer/semi-hammer gun so awesome for loading with the hammer down and just cocking the hammer to shoot - so nice and safe when loaded and walking around the farm or on wet slippy terrain etc. waiting for ratty to stick their head up! My intention with this gun was to fit a silencer as it has no "pip" front sight It's an older gun and has some very light surface pitting and a small amount of general "patina" for a rough gun I will post some pictures later or send to WhatsApp on request but to be honest if you want pictures on a gun like this - its probably not the gun you need - but if you want something for taking out with rats or vermin in mind in all weathers this is ideal, particularly if you follow through and fit a silencer as per my intention I am only asking £20 for it as I need the space otherwise I'd be keeping it for original intended purpose the reason why I am asking £20 is because I don't want someone to say they want it then mess me around to come and pick it up! So someone that can pay now and collect from near Hitchin Hertfordshire within a week or so preferred please. It's a S2 Shotgun so requires the purchaser to have a valid Shotgun Certificate which a photo will be requested prior to setting up an appointment as per PW recommended practice Anyone interested or requiring additional info please send me a direct message and I'll take any interest in the order received

I’d like these books if still available please
