  23. I belive there is a standard of deact that the proff house stamp confirms it is deatcted to the correct standard for the UK law. Its not only welding and blocking holes I belive the barrel is slit the firing pin and cocking parts are cut. a good deact you will not be able see it. Al
  24. Well if there deact to the UK standard whats the problem with the proff house stamping them with the correct markings a print docoment is easly lost, there is no reason why the dealer cannot arrange for it to be done. This would take any questions of complance with UK laws on this subject you after remember the local plod will treat any firearm has real untill proved otherwise just my veiw on it. Al
  25. Thanks Bob I had a good instruction from the expert enjoyed driving the A7V Al
