Hi Rick
On reflection, what I should have said was that effectively this stuff is no longer able to be legaly possessed by the average Joe. You would be one of a very small number of people qualified to own such items, for as you say, they make it very difficult. You are very fortunate to have had the contacts and the wherewithal to allow it.

I had a LAW tube many years ago along with Claymore and Jumping Jack Mines and other assorted nic-nacs when it wasn't a problem so long as they were de-activated or spent. I get a little angry at having our freedoms removed bit by bit in this inexorable eroding process and mouth off now and then. I shouldn't resent it, after all, it's for our own good isn't it?

Cheers

Dave
