Royal Armouries
All things come to an end. I have today shipped a large part of my collection of RSA firearms as a donation to the Royal Armouries in Leeds, UK. This will save these firearmes for the future. They have received
Vektor SP2, SP1 Sport, SP1 Ultra Sport, SP1 Stock Gun, SP1 GM, SP2 GM, Lynx, Varan, Mamba, Republic M/11, Smith & Beecham .380, Musgrave pistol, TZ99, Neostead shortgun, Mag7 shotgun, Aserma ADP, Truvelo ADP.
Some of the guns I have sold off in South Africa: Sanna, Gary Barnes BXP, CX635, Milkor Stopper, Paramax
Some I have for sale in South Africa if anyone is interested: Z88 Compact, two different Z88 pre-production models, Z88 police engraved
Remaining part of the collection may go to a museum in the future as well. Mainly long arms including Vektor LM rifles

Re: Royal Armouries
It must have burned horribly but you saved some of our heritage from the current crop of thieves in charge who would happily turn into scrap for export to their mates in Chicom land. Thank you.

Re: Royal Armouries
Thanks for posting, out of curiosity, how much is the Z88 Compact worth?

Re: Royal Armouries
Yes, that feels good. Police was after them to destroy them, but I managed to drag process out in court and had time to ship to UK. I would love to have donated the unique Vektors also, but I just could be bothered trying to get the export permit. I had tried to get that permit from South African police for two years when I gave up. If there is an interest in getting these to the Royal Armouries from the gun community I am happy to donate as long as I don't have to bother about export permit and transport
