Starting in blackpowder

Then why did you pm me telling me that I was giving you crappy information? Sure, IF you live in the USA there are a couple of small-scale high-priced manufacturers there of obsolete cartridges - that's how I shoot my 52cal Spencer carbine at $4.50 a shot, but please advise me of a walk-in gun store in the UK where you can buy .577/450 M-H ammunition.

I'm done here.

I think your derogatory comment is unwarranted!
I sent you two e-mails...both were polite. In one of the e-mails I attached copies of Home Office documentation that I thought would be of interest to you.

Hello Tac,
I hope you do not mind me contacting you directly instead of using
Airgun BBS?

I cannot upload jpegs so I have to do it this way as the document I
have has been scanned as a picture file rather than a text file.

I have attached an extract of the list of obsolete calibre's (page 9),
which may be of interest?

The calibre in question is the Martini 45/577. They have it listed as
the 577/45. (I always put the calibre first, it seems to make more
sense that way).

Regards

Hello Tac,
The problem seems to be that your reply to my thread states that I
would be breaking the law if I had a 577/450 without an FAC. It has
been in the list of obsolete caibres since 2001.

I have copied the relevant page into a word doc and will post it on BBS
for the benefit of other people.

All the best
Enfield2band.


I see nothing untoward here!

If anyone on BBS can I would be grateful if they would point it out!

Sir - in THREE posts on this subject I have reiterated that without an appropiate entry on your FAC you cannot legally make ammunition for either THIS calibre or any other, obsolete or not.

Plainly, I understand and am fully cogniscent of the law on this matter, and yet you send me a couple of emails pointing out the blindingly obvious facts that I have already used to write my answers, as though I some kind of limp-brain halfwit who somehow failed to grasp the significance of what I was writing.

And YOU are offended?

Get real, Mr enfield2band.

This really is the last input from me on this thread.

Thanks for the help and input from all. Ill take away the points and try and digest what's there when I get through all the back and forth.
