Well I Guess I'd Better Start Saving..!!

Postby Tommo » Sun Oct 22, 2017 7:44 pm

Here's a bit of news, hot off the 'official' presses so to speak. The Revd Mrs Tommo and I are just about to begin packing all our stuff as we are moving from Southport Su-la-Mer Avec la Plage.

Our new home, and the Revd Mrs Tommo's new parishes (all two of them) is situated some 70 miles north west(ish) of were we presently abide and in my homeland of the Isle of Man.
I already have the necessary permits for my rifles and shotguns so that important factor is taken care of.

The Revd Mrs Tommo's last service in our current parish will be the 7th of January and we hope to be moved over to the Island within a week of that date.

So.. BIG question is... just how much will a 1911 in .45ACP acutally cost..?? :clap: :thumbs: :clap:

In the US a stock non descript 1911 is about $700. The Colts are near $1000. You can add on 50% to your cost in the UK. Congrats on the move and enjoy your new found freedom.
