Hello everyone,
If your local dealer orders from SMK (Sports Marketing) then they aught to be able to get one for you. Most airgun stockists will have had dealings with them. If they don't (or won't) then ask them to do a RFD postal service for you (money for old rope). Just ignore the sarcasim and their superb wit and get one. Dealers who take the p*** out of their customers will go out of business just because of that and quite right too.
As for the Tanfoglio markings well they make superb handguns and are one of the better producers of the venerable M1911 automatic. See it as a proof of your discerning taste!
I am in London so will visit my local dealer tomorrow to put an order in.
Good luck eveyone
Alan
