How many here collect deacts or obsolete caliber pistols?

for yours is easy tac, you want one to add to your already existing collection of scandinavian rifles.

FEO: You need to demonstrate that you are a collector of the relevant handguns that are of some historical or cultural interest. should read FEO: So you want to add to your collection of scadinavian firearms, what do you already have?

ME: I have several rifles from that era and wish to add the pistols which match.

FEO: no problem.


One can easily be had. The collection may be nothing to do with firearms, perhaps a famous person is what the collection is based on. You may have other artifacts, for instance uniform paperwork etc of maybe a relative who was a renowned officer or a wild west notorious figure so may want to add their weapon to your collection.

The whole scheme is not to make it possible for everyone to have a pistol, its not aimed at shooters but at collectors and the preservation on important pieces of history.

Thank you for that, it really makes it a whole LOT clearer!

All but two of the firearms that interest me - one from Switzerland and one from Sweden - are already on the obsolete calibre list, and readily available - for looking at - albeit it at a considerable price.

This needs some thinking about...
