    Happiness is a warm Brocock.......

    ..... pump!

    100 TAC's pumped and ready for the club tomorrow night. I got most of them in a bulk deal last year, out of 111 tacs 96 pumped up with no issues, out of the rest 7 held air after a strip and dab of sewing machine oil. The rest will be coming back to the uk with me for new seals.

    I bet I can fire them quicker than I loaded them

    Superb!! A mate of mine had the brocock orion when we were in our teens and we had great fun with it. Can you get a Tac license in the UK or are they done and dusted here?

    They are section 5, but I think you had to get the licence at the time it came in. I very much doubt it could be done retrospectively.
    I am always on the hunt for an air pistol that gives this same "feel", I am going to try the Dan Wesson 715 when I get back to the UK, maybe pop along to Solware in April to get one?

    I wouldn't mind trying the Dan Wesson out. I've got a Smith and Wesson 586 which is great fun but the authenticity is slightly marred by the magazine

    You could have an existing one put on an FAC at the time of the ban. You can never sell it, give it away, or pass it on to your kids in the UK.

    There is still a market to sell to the US. And France I guess

    Oh, I would buy some more if I could. I believe it's down to individual forces as to whether they would allow export. Ie the owner could export their Orion 6 or model 54/522 to my house in France for thier personal use when they're here, then I just buy it!

    I understood it was done with any section 5 RFD. Find one that likes fine wine and cheese and invite them over complete with guns.
