    If it was shipped in February 1979, why couldn't it have been made in January?
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    1/2/79 Is the second of January '79 if'n you're an American.

    That's when it was shipped across the USA, from Beeman's to Northwest Guns & Ammo.

    Which doesn't leave much time for it to have been made in Germany in '79, and received at Beeman's in California, on or before "January 2nd".

    UK: dd/mm/yyyy.

    USA: mm/dd/yyyy.

    Sorry should have said January 2, 1979. Trying to be funny isn't easy.

    You say December 25th.

    We say the 25th of December.

    Both are equally Christmassy.

    It defies logic that the sequence should be noted mm/dd/yyyy After the 12 day it is easy enough to decipher

    It will confuse the hell out of the USA when the calender is metricated The question is, will they get into line with the rest of the world and how long will it take??

    BTW, that is a clean looking FWB 65 you have there flint.
