graysclassics Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Indeed That's why I get all my stuff sent to friends on the Gulf Coast, saved about £350 on the last trip which was almost enough to pay for the flight Going again at the end of the month and getting worried as I worked out I have about 2 suitcases worth of stuff already waiting for me to collect!, so no room to bring back any of the usual shopping :( My heart bleeds for you old chap.... hope your'e not going with ryanair or you will pay £80 just for the bags...

phaedra1106 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 First Choice, managed to get Premium from my local airport for less then we paid last November with Virgin in economy from Manchester Only problem is they only fly from Newcastle April to October, so going back in November/early December (nice and cheap) means another trip to Manchester and back.

Vermincinerator Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm waiting to see if I can get an order through here, costs are silly compared to here http://www.cliffsgunsmithing.com/index.html al4x, is this a personal import? if so how do you get the bullets signed onto your FAC? You cannot be in possession of sec.5 bullets if they are not entered onto your FAC. Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njc110381 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 My impression of the postage laws is that you can't send them in the UK. Nothing mentioned about receiving them? I'm going to have a look. To be honest it's not the price saving that matters, it's the drive to buy the danm things! It takes me an hour+ round trip to visit my RFD, for a £30 box of bullets that's a bit much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a decent reloading supplier near me at all - its all a couple of hours round trip and they are limited as to stock holdings unlike some of these bigger suppliers, wish I lived near oxford and I would spend hours looking around that one, for the time being I am going to order some Sierra 1365 from Lux - Euro 77 for 500! Happy days... cheap enough to waste on crows and magpies and charlie is going to get a serious bashing.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made another post advising of re-stocking dates as the site was out of stock of quite a few bits. I emailed them regarding some other sundries to get a restocking date and they will email me direct when back in stock. Also once you have ordered you get a code giving you a further discount on future orders. Completely genuine, completely professional, completely legal. (as long as you have exp on your ticket of course) Hope this is of help you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
