A big thank you to Pete and Liz and everyone involved, simply the best.
Great to meet up with some of the regulars and to meet up with some new ones, hello again to Andrew M.

I spent the time on the opposite side of the table selling off a few bits to fund yet another 'item of interest'. I did indeed find my next dream purchase,not airgun related and many others have drooled over it. That Japanese carbine (see John's pictures ) was superb and I was invited to pick it up for closer inspection. Now that thing was heavy! What superb craftsmanship, not just that amazing barrel, but all over. That thing is museum quality. I wonder if it had been fired at all?
Interestingly there was no price on it and I didn't dare ask. I'd have never got away with trying to explain why I'd sold the house!

Thanks John’s.
I remember reading about it in John G’s excellent book, so it rang a bell,
thanks to John M. for photographing it, you never know, another one might pop up one day 🤞

There’s treasure out there.....
