Send it in with variation form and £26 and ask - I presume you need it for pigeons on the rape?

Why not get an Escort 3" or 3 1/2" (just released) with extended magazine - an 8 shot which includes 5 screw in choke tubes and all for around £350. I have just bought one and am pleased with the lack of recoil. The finish is not up to those semis that sell at twice the price but that is why it is so cheap. I have striped it down to the last little bit and can really find nothing to complain about and best of all it went back together again easily - well there were no bits left over anyway so it must have done !

Some police authorities will only allow section 1 shotguns for practical shooting. Others are less restrictive. Hope yours is one of these.

By the way 'Thanks Dave' for not calling them Police Forces. They are not - not a single one as far as I can see - they are all Constabularies or as you stated authorities.
