Forum rules
Posting of negative comments in the Gunshop section could bring unwanted criticism on the forum, having said that it is important to let members know if dealings with a Gunshop were less than ideal for you. To that end we will allow what will be known as the 'Scotsgun Ruling'

The Scotsgun Ruling:

>Add Gun Shop here<

"As I've yet to have a 'positive' experience there, I'll refrain from commenting further."

Beyond that please take it up with the Gunshop, if you do resolve the issue in a agreeable manner let us know!

This rule applies to the entire forum.

Anybody dealt with By Sword and Musket, they seem to have a good selection of classic rifles but the prices seem on the high side.

I bought a K31 from them.

Item was exactly as described and the service was good. Prices are a bit on the high side but I got exactly what I wanted with the minimum of fuss.
As you indicated, some nice kit on the website.

When someone says "it's not about the money" you know what? it probably is all about money!

Sorry, but there is no way that paying over three times what I paid for my K31 can be justified by such a comment unless you've got money to throw away.

£850 is an outrageous price to ask for a K31, when normally they fetch somewhere in the range £250-450 here in the UK.

What is even more ridiculous is £3950 for a Lee Speed!

He does always appear to have nice stuff or more exotic versions. I guess it's a case of supply and demand, he has something that's rare and you want it then whilst he maybe expensive you may have little choice. But I understand everyone's points re the k31's
