I know that Run with the Vermin, doesn't like Limey's and neither does he like people from the land of the Rising Kensal by the sounds of it.
But as a simple Limey, could I ask the OP, Gazz, Is the gun stiff to open with the forend removed? Is it only difficult with the forend fitted?
Therein may lie the answer to your conundrum.
Yup- and sometimes I runs with the Vixens too-being a "Ladies Man" on occasion. I dislike the Limeys for: Belfast--where my late great-grandfather worked as a ship's millwright at Harlan and Wolff until 1910, when he left for America-- when will the Royals admit they don't belong in Ireland and get out forever- also Lord Boycott and the Potato Famine, the Easter Sunday 9actually Monday) rebellion of 1916, and the unspeakable slaughter in 1922 on "Bloody Sunday" at Wembley Stadium--you can get a sense of the "White Man's Burden" in both movies- Ghandi-- and Lawrence of Arabia- where the British military solved any "problems" by shooting unarmed civilians en masse. But they do make some fine shotguns-- and whereinHell is Kensal anyway- risen or not? When they do a re-make of one of my favorite movies- "The Bridge On The River Kwai" which portrays all too well the "stiff upper lip, Old Boy" approach re: Alex Guiness as Col. Nickerson--(building a bridge to aid the enemies efforts to win the war is damn near treason IMO) and have Wm. Holden drop the "Some Limey" reference in the early part of that first rate movie, then I'll maybe reconsider-maybe
