if you want hard evidence, come over, will put you in contact with some people from our Federale arms department, lots on confiscated stuff... ,will give you a coffee, maybe that way will talks easier, not going into a "who has the largest" contest, I rest my case

will not put up a fight for an already lost cause, as a legal gunowner ,we had our own problems , btw in Liege caused by...a reworked deact, this has costed us the right to own about 600 historic weapons legally without permits , if something shows up about an illegal gun collection in Belgium ,80% of them consisted of....reworked deacts, People ignoring this are just plain stupid We are getting tired of these illegal collections, putting legal gunowners in a bad light. Most of the collectors that I know in Belgium don't give a dime about deacts, but they do care about their legal fully operating guns, so if the new deact law will help us to keep our guns, we will embrace it. I'm almost certain that alot of lobbying within this new deact law has been done by legal collectors, sports/ owners , to prevent the ban of semi auto rifles as what the original target was all you can state is that the killings in Paris were not done with deacts, well the killings in Liege certainly were. And the deact rebuild guns in the illegal circuit are for real, not convinced? I can arrange you a meeting with some Law officers ,specialized in weapons , they can show you...

have not seen the guns, might be that your story is right, the work however to get them working is about the same, swap barrel and repair/swap bolt, Maybe you don't see the problem, I do, we already have seen lots and lots of illegal rebuild guns over here, most of them in hands of collectors, some in hands of criminals, As a legal gunowner, we fear those rebuilds deacts more , just as we feared the legally free trade of the cheap Russian nagant revolvers ,because 1 thing is certain, they are not being held for recreative or competitve shooting, however ,these things are not possible with current specs deactivated Brittish guns, I don't think the difference for you will be that great. About England, well facts are facts, guncontrol in England is much much stronger than in Belgium, Netherlands, France, Germany,...... you will be about the only private owner I know that owns a life ,fully working, legal 1921? but it probably is also a deactivated one and that might be the problem, getting your government to vote semi and maybe FA weapons ownership legal again you don't have to take things personal, Belgium and England have a long long history of sharing knowledge and industries (industrial revolution,...) and I'm sure that most people in Flanders have the highest respect for the Brits,just as I do(we realy have lots to thanks the Brits for), but with the going under of the old industries, England is no longer the number 1 of the industrial world, just as we in Belgian lost our number 2 place to cheaper /more innovative countries

with all respect Ron, but we don't have to take lessons about gun laws from the UK, their laws have been alot stronger than our own Belgian laws, and this for a much longer time. the new deactivation regulations is what you get when people are buying deact AK47's , rebuild them and use them against civilians. As much as I advocate freedom and liberty, these facts can't simply be ignored. the problem as i see it with the EU: never underestimate stupid people in large numbers. We had a decent thing going before the fall of the iron curtain. The numbers went larger with the wrong countries, If the EU was made out of the western European countries (as it was in the beginning) things could have been great! now about BREXIT, well the Brittisch have always been a bit pigheaded, I do understand them, but I don't think it will help them in the long run, the days of the great Brittish empire have been long gone, with a Brexit, they will get more isolated than they have ever been. Maybe a new order with the UK, Belgium, Germany, Netherlands, France and maybe Austria...........wouldn't that be a good thing?

I'm on to one

what I read on some sites is that assault rifles and high capacity magazines can not be imported in the USA , That was the reason I asked this question, I don't want to risk trouble . btw TD, everything is fine, thanks for asking

is it legally possible for a US citizin to import a Colt C-drum (C&R?) or not? Only facts please

no comparison to G fox or Robert N cases!

one of the members was looking for an original WWII vertical grip, ...well I think here you got one, for sale on a french board naturabuy.fr search for thompson 1928 and you will find

FYI ,I'm a lefty and wear my watch on my left polse....

if it doubles on Fiocchi, it will double on almost anything else, I don't believe this is caused by underpowered ammo, I bet if you clip off 10 coils of the spring, you still will have doubles...

Bounty, you have to keep in mind that WH's are not in spec most of the time, if you compare them with a pre or WWII gun,.....well things got skipped, dimensions were off, metal used is not in the same league, I know, we don't want to hear it, but most of us know... they were not made that good....... but on the bright site...they can made to be OK without breaking the bank , swap ALL those internals with good GI parts, place an urethane buffer and you are good to R&R. Too be quite honest, My WH was one of the very last ones made and out of the box...it was a piece of crap, Now... it runs great

thanks for the tip, found the seller and they still have some

looking 4 a repro spare parts box

indiana case is gone Thanks

check Rocker , the original rocker in my WH did the same from time to time(often), replaced it with the longest tip rocker I had...problem gone.

As for now, I'm talking with Devil Dog 1110 for a trade, He was the first to contact me, sended some pictures with Email to him,

I pulled my Robert's made Indiana case out of the storage today, and I came to the conclusion that it's time to let this one go. It has not see much use and it's still in very good condition, the nickle hardware went dull (will polish fine if disired) and there is some normal wear from normal usage on the red lining. I think I paid almost 1K for this case( it was more than 1k,incl shipping) and it was one of the last ones he made. I'm looking for 750 $ shipping incl OR to trade it for a very nice FBI or Police case made by Robert or Greg Fox Beware, this case sits in Belgium, so with taking the shipping cost on me, I don't have much room left to take offers will try to load fresh pictures later on Christof

that's a crazy price,

I was just pulling your leg, the bad shape they are in are a dealbreaker for me, it has been a long time since I saw a colt on egun, the last one was one of the lake guns, also in bad shape, ...good luck with the auction

and what about a serious interested insider??

Rest in Peace Gordon, you were a gentlemen as in Old School, the few times I had the pleasure of dealing with you , reminded me that there are still people on this planet who treat others with honor and respect. You surely will be missed

prob. be deactivated, BUT about the prohibition of FA weapons in Greece...... well as most will know, England has about the strictest gunlaws in Europe, but i know from a Belgian collector that he has sold several FA weapons to a Brittish collector....of course legal, while normal English mortals have a hard time getting anything else than a 2 barrel 12 gauge.

the WH frame and upper are rather soft, they will gome apart easier just by using it

WTF, 5 years!! that's a long time to be married these days, I wish PK and all the people on his list a good health
