GBGaffer Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 I am selling my Browning 725 S1 12g shotgun, as I have just bought a new clay gun and I need to make room in my cabinet. Codition is v good, and gun is complete with a plastic case, 7 invector ds chokes, and choke key. I am based on the Isle of Wight, and would prefer collection in person.

HantsRob Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 I'm seriously tempted, Do you ever come over to the mainland? If not I could potentially jump on the red jet, if I can enlist @Old farrier to help with the paperwork! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red jet and Wightlink don't like guns on board, so you need to declare them. You need to do some admin, and usually store the gun with the ships captain. Just some maritime laws to obey!
