I'm not sure I want to tell, because you lot might tell me it isn't what I bought it as and burst my bubble. I really enjoy owning the rifling cutter for a Lewis gun

Would that be the Lewis of Morse fame I wonder?

[Robert Atkinson 2Participant @robertatkinson2]

No issue owning a cutter. If you make slow match I'm sure you are aware of some of the illogical UK firearms laws. For example you cant own a "realistic replica firearm" unless you are a recognised re-enactor film maker or similar. So you can't own a diecast light alloy replica of for examle a "cap and ball" revolver. You can however collect antique firearms and own a real one without any licence or similar conditons. This ebay item is technically illegal

but as it's for an Aden cannon I guess no one is bothered. More use as a blunt object than a silencer

Hi Robert

I'm not quite sure why but I seem to be collecting blunderbusses, it's probably just a phase I'm going through

It's just a stage in the progression towards punt guns . (spent my childhood in Norfolk).
