    It's a pleasure Sir.

    I was surprised I took so many (there were a fair few that didn't make the cut due to being out of focus or badly framed). There were also items I saw but did not photograph such as a fair few boxed rifles. I think were was a Paratrooper and/or Sniper that looked to be in VGC.
    Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
    Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.

    Me too John. I usually scrap a few such as a pic I took of Shed Tuner holding a BSA 240 Magnum, which he customised. The background was in focus but the pistol was blurred! The grip that John fitted made that 240 about the only comfortable one I have ever held.
