Order In Council Firearms problem / solution

[rob love]

I bought it from a local surplus dealer's closure auction a couple years back. I liked them because they would be less likely to get damaged than the fiberglass ones.

I actually won the bidding on two of them, but when I went up front to collect them, I noticed one packing tube was lighter than the other. Turned out that it only contained a short piece of 2x4 which had likely been placed inside the tube during the previewing the day before. The owner sorted it out. I even got to keep the empty shipping tube and the piece of 2x4, which I burned in the woodstove.
