    Ditto. And if ever I am stupid enough to contemplate marriage again, I'll just cut out the middle (wo)man, give away all my guns, find someone I hate, and buy them a house, instead.

    The LH CS700 SR and V-Mach will be the hardest to replace, followed by the PE.

    The 50 and 35 aren't worth that much, compared to the other rifles.

    You will perhaps kind of know which of them you have a particular attachment to. I do among mine. Some I would not miss, some I definitely would, others in the middle.

    If I was selling to spend on a different hobby, I would keep the stuff I really like, and the stuff that would be really hard to find again. In some cases, those things are the same. In others not (eg I like my Webley Senior loads, but Webley Seniors aren't hard to source: a lefty SR would be).

    Keep the top three as the other ones are still easy to get hold of today.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    Thread resurrection!

    Mk1 tx200 - has to go
    TX200 SR - has to go
    Silver star - has to go

    I will be starting a thread in the sales section once I have decided on current values.
    I also have a few scopes going that way also!

    Right, deep intake of breath - I’ve decided to seek all but the HW80.

    I need to raise some funds for house repairs. Could I please have an honest opinion of values please? I will then start a thread in the sales section.

    Thanks in advance.

    Run

    Hi Running is good!

    If you run only ten miles a day in one week you will be 70 miles away from your wife!
    When I die don't let my wife sell my guns for what she thinks I gave for them!!!

    HAHAHAHA That made me squeal with laughter Gareth. My brother has just done exactly the same. I'm glad you came out the other side with your sense of humour intact.
