I've had the year check in the past. But on this occasion the YL involved was totally deadpan about me not getting the goodies without ID. And, no word of a lie, I went out at lunchtime today to find a box containing a 15" sirupate khukuri sitting on the doormat. Different courier! :D

Resurrected to say I was IDed today by a young lady delivering a kitchen gadget with a blade on behalf of Amazon. There was a little discussion, as I'm in my 50s and it shows, but she was or at least seemed quite willing to walk away and have the item returned if I didn't show her proof of age...

Cut crystal ashtray for me... And I swear if I'd had my shoes on it would have worked.

Anyone here done it? I assume it's a common conversion and someone will have documented the process.

Because it's illegal to market a blade as being for fighting or combat.

There would not be a picogramme of concern given. You'd either have paid already or been a thief/vandal for which they're amply covered. Only people you'll annoy is other consumers.

Honestly, with the exception of outdoor kit and the odd sports team related item, I shop from the grandad's range at Tesco these days and again, being totally honest, that isn't going to change.

It may still result in you doing time. The ridiculousness notwithstanding. I own an Emerson CQC7, it was sold to me, perfectly legally as a CQC7, had it been sold to me as a Close Quarter Combat (model) 7, it would have been illegal to sell and possess. Now that is ridiculous, but there you go.

Great, Thanks!

I've got back into wearing/using British DPM since all the actual walts re-equipped with MTP.

Me please!

Blackjacks, Fruit Salads, Hulks, Phantoms... And another chewy thing that had secret agents on the wrapper. Grandad used to get me a ten penny mixup from the corner shop and give it to me at bedtime when I stayed with them. At that stage, BTW a "10p mixup" contained at least ten items... But...

No worries, probably saved me from a lecture anyway.

Oh, go on then. If nobody has taken it in the meantime, I'll have it. Lord knows why, but I'll think of something!

For the most part we're not in your country though.

Or indeed, just to go into the woods.

Very short version, you cannot take 'game' (read anything alive) in NI with anything other than a firearm. For legal purposes air weapons are firearms here.

Mine will simply disappear as many other items have before.

I think it's now completely safe to say that crossbows will be gone or on FAC by Chrisrmas.

I've got something, the Mrs. has the same thing last week. Very sore throat, phlegm-y, occasional loss of voice and ready for bed, right about now actually! Dunno if it's covid, a cold, a chest infection or something entirely different and that's the way I suspect we're going to be from now on.
