Oh, sh1t, I've finally done it. Sold up. Guns gone.
After 55 years of holes in paper, most [although not all] in or very close to the centre, I've finally started selling up the last of my pistols and all the kit that went with them.
Four days ago I sold the Glock 17, today was farewell to the FAS 602: all with c. 1,000 rds each. The Knoblock and Gehmann optical bits went on Friday. Now I'm down to a couple of telecopies and stands, and a bag of bits such as ear defenders, most of which will undoubtedly go to the Jersey Pistol Club.
When I think of the kit the OH and I had before the great "shredding" post-Dunblane, I could weep. However, strangely, saying goodbye to those last 2 doesn't seem to matter now.
Where did I put those darts?

Cheers for that. Will you let me know when you sell a car, or move house perhaps?

I know how it feels, down to my last rifle and that going next week, still made a decent donation to a couple of military charities, maybe you could consider helping there as well, seems sort of appropriate to me.

Some of the proceeds will end up with Holidays4Heroes of course. Originally Posted by Djbutler

I had a clear out of range rifles a year or two ago, spent the dosh on the house and restocked with sporting rifles!
