RichyK, is your SKP in the UK?
If it is it sounds like it should be on an FAC already and not SGC.
Arming the Country, one gun at a time.

I have discovered that customguns.co.uk is an importer for Nordic - so even though it would probably be a special order, it bypasses all the USA and import issues by using a professional dealer.

Sorry, didn't see your reply!

Yes it is in the UK and yes it is on a SGC as a three shot. To turn it into a five it would it would have to be 'modified' that is take the magazine tube off, Spring out, plug out re- assemble etc. Well I am not about to do that and get into trouble!

tbh I am thinking the whole magazine issue is so much hassle I may as well just buy a different gun as and when I get my FAC, leaving this one alone and on the SGC. I have seen some very nice pump guns suitable for practical shotgun at well under a grand. Then I would have two!

As they say in cycling, the optimum number of bikes is N-1 ( where N = divorce...! ) shakeshout
