Hi Rick,
I have thought hard and long over exactly that argument. The conversion is a very basic one , just removing the barrel and sheild / A couple of brackets were then produced and a board fixed on top of the brackets. i dont have the board or all of the brackets. I feel to display it as a funeral carrige could be seen as a bit morbid ( i have no way of finding out who has been carried on it as this would have been a deciding factor as well ) and finally if i ever decide to part with it there is the value and sale abilaty to consider. A 25prd gun is more sort after than a F/c i would think.
But really , thanks for your views . it has made me look again at the options and confirm my thoughts to put it back to a gun.

It would be nice to put it back to MK1 spec with out the muzzel brake and counter ballance .

TTFN
Shaun
