    Heartbreaks

    Something that the vendor clearly lacks.

    Heartbreaks

    What terms could possibly absolve the lies they offered over the state of the bore? Here in UK we'd counter them by stating that the rifle is 'not fit for purpose' and get a full refund.

    India Barrel Failure

    The owner of the pistol might have originally bought it as a decoration piece, which does not require proof in any CIP signature country, and subsequently requested it get proofed so that he could shoot it. Unfortunately it failed proof. It being private property, it was returned to the owner...

    HE didn't load anything, it was the Hungarian State Proof House that did the biz here.

    Whereabouts are you in UK? When you live here it can seem quite big. Anyhow, we've met before!

    English Squirrel Stalking

    Hmmm, not sure I'd relish sea-slug on a stick.

    English Squirrel Stalking

    I've looked very hard but sadly, I'm unable to find any reference to squirrel in Deuteronomy. I'm left to conclude that they are therefore not kosher. :(

    English cavalry carbine musket

    Not a musket, but a carbine, similar to a Paget's Horse Cavalry carbine, and appears to have been a private purchase. No issue weapon had breech banding like this. British officers had to provide their own weapons, BTW. The lack of stamps is of concern, though, since it would have had to have...

    Correct spelling for Hawk_n?

    William Shakespeare, although not - to our knowledge - a BP shooter of any particular note, nonetheless is known to have spelt his own name in at least sixteen different ways. Even such a simple name as mine has been spelt four different ways - not bad for just five letters.

    King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery at Horse Guards Parade!

    1. Are you a girl? 2. Do you like to wear military clothing designed in the 1820's? 3. Do you want to ride BIG horses? 4. Do you like to shoot REALLY big black powder cannons? Then the Kings Troop, Royal Horse Artillery of the British Army might just suit you.... and

    Coming soon - an explosives license for any combustible powder?

    Here in UK - Given that the explosives licencing departments of the 51 separate county and national police forces can take around a full YEAR to get around to issuing you with the legal document that permits you to acquire and possess this stuff, I'm greatly and understandably concerned...

    You'll need to address your queries to Fleener, here on the forum - he is a famous and highly-regarded competitive long-range shooter in the USA.

    Curious about availability of percussion caps in Europe, Africa, S.America, Asia?

    Such figures go hand-in-hand. Would YOU pay AUS$0.25c for ONE percussion cap?

    Oh, Come On With the Inflated Caps!!

    RWS caps are the go-to brand for many of us here on mainland Europe and UK, when we can get them - but I haven't seen any since 2019. They are a deal hotter than any other brand, and actually say so on the lid. A dealer here who advertises on one of our notice boards is asking 25c per top-hat...

    Yes, I bleeve that the rules here in UK have recently been amended to allow people like yourself and others with debilitating permanent conditions to use seats of the kind that you can see in Mr Minshall's photo above.
