New LBP coming to the UK hopefully

24" and less, a place to discuss all things handgun related, section 7.3. Long barrelled revolvers, long barrelled pistols and section 5. Overseas contributions are more than welcome.

lollol
Seems Blackrifle are already ahead of the game listing it on their website? wonder if they have any more details.

The UK market could certainly do with some variation.
The GSG "Firefly" should be with us around the end of this month. We'll post a review and proper pics as soon as they are available.
:good: Look forward to seeing it.

And how many were imported and sold here ?
I've seen one in the flesh in the hands of a shooter, not an RFD.

But Mike started refunding deposits before his tragic accident as he could no longer supply them .

Low Mill 1911 ............. a real tasty bit of kit .
Walther ..................... could be an interesting gun , and not too expensive .
Volquartson Rugers from Stockade
Buckmarks .

Last two are getting expensive due to exchange rates .

Fair to say the VQ & Buckmarks are more target orientated LBP's. The VQ in particular offering better quality barrels etc.
