Been a Busy Buyer

Post by capt14k »

Just got approved for Permits for a dozen rifles I'm importing from Germany. While I was waiting for those I bought some pistols in Finland.

Cool items! I just ordered a Swiss 1911 Carbine from Simpsons. Need it to go with my Swiss 1911 Engineer's bayonet. Paid the extra to get it shipped overnight as I don't like having a firearm being transit any longer than necessary. I do plan to travel to Europe someday and will have the funds to export some items-if I don't spend all my money buying railway antiques in the UK.
