JDB Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 I hope someone can make use of this seems a shame to chop it up - it's an old no name 9mm garden gun with 100 cartridges. Bolt action, works but all a little tired. Not been used for 15yrs so probably needs to go. Free to anyone who can collect or local meet up, it's on my FAC as it is a short barrel. If you would like to make a donation to Hampshire Air Ambulance for it then that would be great 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfieldspares Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 What a nice gesture and offer. Not for me I'd add. I wanted to buy one to replace the Webley I used as a teenager some fifty years ago now. Then I saw the cost of the cartridges in 2020!

Captain jack Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Is it Fac only due to length ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalkedUp Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 They would be great for my boys but I fear the timescales for a variation would be prohibitive. Best of luck with finding a home, a great gesture 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDB Posted November 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 I'm in no rush to part with it, it may be here for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalkedUp Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Ok, I’ll make an enquiry about timescales and get back to you. If you find a buyer in the meantime no worries 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen-H Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Might be worth entering into a auction as a few places in my area (NW England) can't get hold of the rounds/cartridge anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dasher Posted June 22, 2022 Report Share Posted June 22, 2022 Problem is trying to find anyone with an open FAC slot for a 9mm garden gun, I'm not sure on what grounds a licence for one would now be given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferretlurcher1970 Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 No problems. The 9mm was fun in lockdown with a rat explosion but can't justify two 9mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
