    Fair comment - I like that idea.

    All of the above.

    Or you could apply for a license as a collector if that's what they end up doing or hand them to an airgun club.

    People thought airguns would be worthless up here after the license came in. The ads on free adds said different (what I saw anyway) . Prices they were asking was crazy. Almost as much or more than a new one .

    Or you could get the Scots doing what some English did and offer peanuts for them while gloating and yes there was some on here also

    You voted for them and all that bull.

    I think I might. It turned up in bits in a job lot of assorted bits that I bought because it wasn't very expensive and included a particular bit that I wanted. I'll have a look this coming weekend. If you don't hear from me, nag the heck out of me, because I can get distracted from rooting around in boxes full of ziplock bags of gun bits.

    I think I have about 50% of an SSP-250 as well, which I was kind of going to make into a real gun until I ended buying a complete SSP-250.

    I am with u sir. I will personally burn every one of them and destroy them myself rather than handing them over to anyone for any purpose. To hell with the parasites of our society.

    How many 2nd hand do you need to buy and sell before its considered a trade and need to register as an RFD.

    Perhaps your local FEO might want to investigate
