Harold K Gordon T/As Section 5 Supply in Essex.

#1 Post by Anson Deeley »

Perhaps now I can give this guy a compliment for an excellent service.
I had provision granted about 3 months ago to aquire a sec 5 pistol. I spoke to Harry and told him what I was looking for, a S & W Model 60,stainless chief special revolver in .38 special. Harry found me the gun, had it restricted to 2 shot and called me in less than the estimated time. He kept me informed at every stage with just £100 deposit. The whole deal came to only £340, a lot less than other sec 5 suppliers. A lovely job he did too on a very clean gun.
Harry is based in Essex and although a nearly 3 hour drive for me to pick it up, was well worth the trip.
He has a good website too as RJ Holloway firearms.

Other section 5 dealers are available, (some are a lot more expensive ! )

I saw Harry yesterday to pick up a Carcano I had reserved from him.
His description of the rifle over the phone was accurate. He was polite and pleasant to deal with and allowed me to have a very envious gander around his gun room. I really hope to do business with him again sometime soon, especially as he offers to locate more obscure firearms from abroad for you.

Edit: I will also say he was very well priced! £225 for a 1897 dated 1891 Terni Long Rifle, the woodwork was in good condition, metal was very good and the bore was like new. He also had a near perfect Steyr 1895 Carbine that I would have bought had I had the extra cash and variation of my FAC.

Another glowing endorsement from me. Harry is a really decent bloke to deal with and was more than fair with me in my most recent purchase.
He also has this website/shop http://www.collectible-arms.co.uk/home/index.html

I have spoken to Harry a few times about various things and he always comes over as a reasonable sort.

S&W model 60, the first all stainless steel handgun. A classic....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
