An Interesting thread on gunboards regarding gun imports and the number of guns that have been imported over the years!

read that thread a few days ago,

need to order the book on Cummings,


and that is just a partial listing,

there were 3 big importers during that time frame, (read an article last year that glossed over the 3, one was owned by a black guy which was considered ground breaking back then)


add to that the number of smaller importers,
and the number of Guns that Century , Navy Arms, PW Arms and a handful of others have imported in the past 20 yrs,,,

That would make a nice collection but would require a very large safe, perhaps more than one even.

Switzerland: 100,000 weapons, 2-3 million rounds of ammo
Try and find some GP11 for less than $1.50 a rd. these days.

Greece: 50,000 weapons, only a little ammunition
I guess we can thank CMP for the HXP we all bought.
