Found a old Gun mart in the attic recently suprisingly enough its still on sale even with all the bans, anyway this one dates back to 1994 and browsing through it i found an advert for uttings again a shop that still exists but only on the internet now. I remember the shop in Norwich it was a great place to visit for replica gun fans, the add is for the blank firers they had at the time but the interesting thing for me is the Luger, i had forgot that a Luger had been sold over here (why i did not buy one back then god knows!) but i have never seen a second hand one of these com up for sale on any of the military sites only the ME front venter, i would love to get my hands on one of these UK ones. Also on the same advert was one for deacts only reason i include this is due to the prices, MP40 £299 they are over 2 grand now again why oh why did i not buy more deacts back then i could be making a fortune now. Anyway adverts below and if anyone knows where i can get one of these UK Lugers please let me know.

Some nice ones there. Looking over old ads can drive you nuts. I have a shooting mag from the fifties here in the US, where Webley Fosberys are the same price as a Colt service revolver.
Oh, to slip back in time and buy a few - not to sell, just to collect.

Woaw! Wish I was older back then! Many of those deactivated guns are impossible to get today.
