Hi Richard,

Fixed barrel is indeed the current law in the UK. The spare barrel is not allowed either. The old spec de-acts are very desirable because of the removable barrels en that is expressed in the prices of these.
Cocking handle is not spring assisted to its forward position so, yes, you return it manually after cocking the gun.

The gun you just picked up is a nice example and will look very good in your Carrier. How are you getting along with the Carrier BTW? It's been a while since your last thread update.

Cheers,
