Surveyor

As I said his comments, I think he may have had a moment not thinking straight on the calibre, just looking at comments on this thread

My Friends comments, his alone; Comments, Why does the officer what the vehicle secured if the fire arm can be removed and secured like other fire arms? Ifits smooth bore it could come under a shot gun certificate and as the barrellength if over 25inches and SMOOTH BORE , yes agree covered under section1 certificate might be sensible. Itis known more than one chief constable is granting an application for such andyet another will cause harassment distress and alarm to a bona fide applicantshows the apparent mentality of the chief constables . Isay Harassment because they hope the applicant will go away! distress by thethought that such preservation will require de-activation and hence greatreduction in the equipment value? and Alarm because it is the hope that even anapplication leading to a Crown Court appeal if refused would make the legitapplication financially crazy. itis a complete farce, there is an Act of Parliament under the terms of the firearms act, the various Chief officers who appear to be unaccountable and hide behinda wall knowing that should you take an appeal to the crown court on a refusalto grant, variation or renewal of a fire arm certificate then the ChiefConstable puts the applicant for appeal against the decision of a chiefconstable and it is the applicant who will bear THE COST IN FULL of the appealto crown court, if you lose you will have ALL YOUR costs and The ChiefConstable will claim all that he can get away or if you win the appeal you arestuck with all your costs or EVEN IF the police withdraw at the court room doorit will just be a trick by the Chief Constable just to out you the applicantout of all your substantial cost which is a trick increase the costs of yourappeal. If however you do get refused and decide tom appeal then go to the HighCourt in London Queen Bench with a copy of your Receipt from the Crown Courtwith your listed appeal number and for a fee of approximately £5 Pounds you can writeout a Subpoena Duces Taken for all the documents necessary that you require fromthe Chief Constable and name him personally in the Subpoena to appear in personat the Crown Court. Make sure that the Subpoena requires the Chief Constableprovides ALL the documents 10 Working days from the date of issue of theSubpoena. If they are not received don't accept that they will be provided onthe day of the Appeals hearing as they do not provide. If the Chief Constabledoes not accept the Subpoenas then go back the Queens bench in the HighCourt and fill out another form for an Order of Substantive Service" andserve that upon the Firearms office addressed to the Chief Constable by nameeand obtain a receipt upon delivery yourself.

Thanks, that's a good point regarding up dating

Barrie Just chased I'm for a reply Richard

Hope you find what you are looking for, I find all members helpful especially as I am learning to maintain a vehicle

Barrie I have spoken with a friend who is familiar with both civilian and military fire arms, he is drafting me a reply to go on here Richard

I remember them being pulled behind electrical units I Rosyth

Ed Thanks for this, roughly what size do you use I was looking at A1 or A2? Richard

In a Clive Cussler book the Nazis had a gas chamber, cant remember of book and cant get to it in attic. Second thought and suggestions could be like the Polish gold train

Probably like Sven not sure of "old" vehicles as shown in his great pictures and looking for advice if I go out and see some thing of interest, and I cant find ID plates or chassis numbers what should I look for in trying to help some one with the knowledge identify the vehicle, yes I know this question may be the equivalent of how long is a piece of string but any suggestions would help.

Reading what I can and getting confused I would like a suggestion for what should be on the information board for displays, especially as thinking of helping charities and leaving vehicle with them, I have history of the units for both the Land Rover and Trailer, I was thinking one board for each as may not have both together. Are there any suggestions regarding shows apart from the usual insurance which needs to be taken into consideration? The vehicle will not be accessible internally, but, hopefully look the part externally, I have no intention presently to get internal looking as an FFR but may do latter. Thanks in anticipation.

What does the writing inside the lid say? not a radio bloke just curious

This could be an interesting thread especially for those of us just starting out considering the show scene

Same here and the new link doesn't seem to work, could it be a browser issue?

This reminded me on how heavy they can be especially if wet and water logged, a memory locked away till now

In order to get a proper comparison can a moderator tell us how many people are registered for this site?

Agreed the rehabilitation is a good point, need some one with good archeologically experience in case we find the last known remains of xxxxxxx.

In tis day and age you never know, especially as they may want publicity such as those with Time Team and Annika Rice

What about delivery as interested in getting about 200

Great Pictures, I may be daft and my kids would say yes, is that a loud speaker on the bonnet? also is that a wire drum on the rear?

Something that is never thought of, "cleaning" up after the battle

Looking at the pictures has some one added an aerial?

Clive do you have a list of British Army paint in relation to British Standard Numbers? which may help the novice like me

If you have the original registration this would help with an FOI. I have a draft letter I use for them if you would like a copy I use John Craddock of Staffordshire for my parts, great service and there returns policy is good as well, there are others

I am not sure, there is something not natural about them, would need to know where and what the ground is like, i.e. soil conditions, rock etc.
