Old Boggy Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 (edited) My nephew has just rung to say that he wishes to get rid of his last gun which is a Greener GP 12 bore. Having spoken to him he is checking the barrel length, serial number etc etc and is to ring me later. I`m guessing that it would be full choke as most were, but uncertain at this stage. This is obviously collection only from either New Romney area or my home which is 7 miles North East of Canterbury, Kent. I`m not sure of the condition but should be able to advise by tomorrow if there is anyone interested. He is even more of a Luddite than me and is unable to pass on/email any photos, but should someone be genuinely interested then I could take some photos of the gun and pass on by PM. Please feel free to PM me but only if really interested as I`m afraid that `tyre kickers` will get short shrift. Apologies for the lack of details at the moment which hopefully should be addressed by tomorrow. Thanks for looking, OB Bit of an update. Barrel is 28 inches. Bore is good. Serial No. is 73067 which (I think) puts manufacture at 1972. The bakelite heel plate with the elephant logo has a chip out of the heel and toe and probably requires replacing.

I occasionally go to Bosham near Havant but nothing planned for the immediate future I’m afraid. Sorry. OB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acerforestry Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 I've had a few too many guns on and off my cert of late, otherwise having dealt with Chris before and not living too far away, i'd hold it on my license until we can get it to you. Maybe we can figure something out, i'll PM you Chris. Whereabouts in Hants are you ferretlurcher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may well be going his way in October but as its not my gun and therefore not on my certificate, I’m not sure how the face to face could work.

Acerforestry Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 The only way it can work that I'm aware of is if you take ownership for now, then transfer to him. All legit, fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
