    changed my mind and sent him this email ...

    "To be honest I don’t appreciate being patronised so obviously. I wouldn’t call a 70 mile round trip to have my time wasted by you ‘little’, particularly since I changed my arrangements to accommodate you. Nor did I appreciate your embarrassing attempt to give me £10 less than the price we’d agreed – a genuine mistake? I don’t think so. Thirdly, as you clearly don’t have legal authority to acquire or possess a black powder revolver and you knew the RFD wouldn’t be there in person, you basically invited me to break the law by accepting a payment and leaving the pistol with you. I don’t appreciate that either. You might not be clear on the letter of the law, but I am.

    To this end, the pistol is no longer available. I wish you luck in your search for a suitable BP pistol."

    I'd rather hand the gun in for destruction than deal with this idiot.

    hi

    came late to this thread...sounds extremely annoying at the least and borderline criminal at worst...

    Having said that - I am looking to get into BP - if the revolver is still for sale, can you tell me more about it?

    I have a slot for A .44 BP

    cheers!
    will pm with my email

    congratulations

    Well done for not being tricked. It is annoying to waste time and travel a long distance wasting money on fuel costs. The important thing is that you did it right. You kept your gun and you keep your FAC. That's a brilliant outcome. Congratulations.

    sorry, haven't been here for a bit .. yes, I think so. You should have the gun by now .. hope all is ok??






    I'm a bit too long in the tooth to be had over ... he did email me a few days ago to see if the gun was still available to him. What a dunce.
