          An interesting item. Is it deactivated? Is it legal, or have you just dropped your mate in it?  :o

Hi Mark,           
               I didn't mean that you may have dropped your mate in it intentionally, but thought it may have been one of those oops moments!  ;) ;D

He wouldn't need a licence for it as it's an antique obsolete calibre. It would be totally illegal if he managed to get hold of ammunition and fired it.
