    You could try F.A.Andersons East Grinstead, same family as Pantiles Guns. They don't hold great deal of stock but may have what you need.

    Thanks chaps. Pantiles has now closed down due to retirement unfortunately. I'll check with Andersons though.

    Can you post on here whether Andersons stock it please. Don't need any yet, but always handy to know. Thanks

    I spoke to Phil at Andersons last week, I believe he has some Swiss 4f , 1f and maybe 2f, suggest you give him a call and have a chat about your requirements. Good shop and they are very helpful.

    Just spoken to Andersons - they have some Swiss No1 and an odd tub of No5 so no joy for me.

    They may get some more in future but unfortunately, with the amount they are allowed to hold and the carriage on a small quantity, its not very commercial.

    Just out of interest, I was reading my current explosives certificate for ahem, the first time and it says I am only allowed to keep 3 kg which surprised me as I had assumed it was a 5kg limit.

    Would be interested to know what limit others have please?

    Thanks for the replies. Mine from Kent Police has 3kg in section 7 - I'll query that with them when I get a moment.

    This is probably because you have a six compartment BP storage box and so cannot safely store more?
