The sights used on various weapons had the Biblical references, but new ones don't have them.

 

7.62mm ammunition is considerably larger than the 5.56mm used with the SA80, is more accurate at longer ranges, and has much greater potential to ruin Terry's day.

 

Oh good! I had visions of you sitting there with a small Drevill grinding away to remove them:D

[JonCris]

Also I understand the 7.62 usually results in a through & through

[noomill060]

The Drevill is in the detail.

Triton dont get sidetracked -the message is still the same-Do nowt

[MARTIN3030]

For me theres still only one that goes hand in hand with our friends-the well tested AK47.

My first visit to Russia gave me the chance to hold one of these.....after that I had 13 more visits where everyone seemed to have one in their apartment and thought I had never seen one.

Best scenario I recall was one which was hidden in a hollowed out poseur table.The guy showed how he could assemble the pieces in 1 minute.

Best of all was the story behind how he had it-he gave 40kg of potatoes and 2 bottles of vodka.

We were just over mountain from Chetneyan border - almost everyone there has an AK47 in their apartment !

Has anyone found out anymore info on the Civil Recovery Ltd outfit? Is it a legit company?

[wheresmyhairgone]

Triton I fear you are not listening to the advice given. I think they are telling you, it matters not if they are legit. I would not pay it, they will bombard you with letters with bigger and bigger threats, but ignore them. Please read other threads. I am in no way experianced in these matters and i,m sure Joncriss and co. will correct me if i,m wrong.

 

Don,t let them bully you, because that`s all they are

[triton]

I agree, if I totally ignore them, will they just forget it?

[wheresmyhairgone]

It will be a long time before they forget it. They will keep sending you letters each one more threatening then the previous one. Then eventualy they will give up and sell it to a DCA and you will have to ignore them all over again. If you able to do this without being WORRIED by their empty threats then buy yourself a shredder with their name on it..

 

Again i,m not an expert but i have been through this with DCA`s. If my advise is wrong then someone will be along to correct me.

I'm happy to do so.

 

In civil recovery cases there is no debt; RLP et al say that they are involved in claims for damages, and yet they rarely, if ever, actually litigate. Consequently, as there is no debt, there is nothing to sell to a DCA, so once the CR company has exhausted its stock of threat letters, nothing will happen.

The only cases CR companies have won against consumers have been undefended default judgements, so it's worth keeping eyes on.

[wheresmyhairgone]

I stand corrected. I only mentioned the DCA`S because i thought i had read somewhere on another Civil recovery thread that they have been known to do this. I,m glad the OP has got their answer.It must have been shock having to read which rifle is the best on her thread.

 

P.S.
