That's what I meant - C&G have two Destroyers listed (as Bergman) on Gunstar one in 9mm Largo and the other in 9x19mm but have the same pictures for both.meles meles wrote:According to the images, the receiver is stamped "Cal 9mm Bergman", and so it isn't 9x19 Parabellum. It would have been ideal had it been one of the very few true 9x19 Destroyers.

Re: 9mm rifles and carbines
I guess you have to reload the 9mm Bergmann/Largo Sandgroper ?

Re: 9mm rifles and carbines
Would it be possible to buy and modify a semi-auto, maybe via an RFD/Gunsmith with a section 5/7? allowance?meles meles wrote:*Ponders a straight pull Sterling*
Re: 9mm rifles and carbines
indeed.
if it was manufactured as a firearm that would be S5 here in the UK, then it will remain to be S5
otherwise it would be very easy and nice to bring in a nice slick S&W add a brace, rebarrel and have a dreamy LBR
not that I have thought much about it

Re: 9mm rifles and carbines
Well that's typical! More moral criminalising of the law-abiding. If I wanted an illegal gun I wouldn't bother going to the effort/expense of shipping something exotic to my Gunsmith and paying him/her to convert it back to semi/full-auto, I'd just go and buy a gun on the street, like the crims do.
Ah well, would have been amazing to actually have a selection of firearms a fraction of what the rest of the world has access to, even converted to straight pull.
Who gets to say what "manufactured" is? Are the straight-pull AKs built that way from scratch?
Sorry to hi-jack, last question I promise

Re: 9mm rifles and carbines
The once an S5 always an S5 has been overcome on a few occasions recently so there is a chance, at least in theory there is....
Re: 9mm rifles and carbines
Yep it has...I'm not sure why it has been ok in some cases, and not in others. Typical of the firearms laws in this country though!!ovenpaa wrote:The once an S5 always an S5 has been overcome on a few occasions recently so there is a chance, at least in theory there is....
