Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Are you seriously suggesting that nobody has
bought a *new* gun since 1996, Oz? What I've heard is, the number of guns sold
post 1996 is now greater than the number handed in.


Who needs a new gun. One that I remember fondly was a .577/450 calibre Martini action
from Indian campaigns. The cartridge was obsolete so the owner rechambered and
put on a new barrel. I can't remember what it was changed to, but it had somewhat
of a kick.

T.

Difference is, these are all brand new modern firearms, not clapped out 22RF
semiautos. Either way, there are more firearms in private hands now than there
were 10 years ago. At least registered ones. Kind of screws your argument but
never mind, you'll have a cognitive disconnect and fail to take this on board.

As for getting illegal guns off the streets, sorry, Easter has gone and the
Easter bunny is resting until next year.


Hmmm. The guy that owned the Martini WAS a rabbit inspector...
