Great link - thanks!

The subject of TAC's comes up every now and then on most forums - often with pictures of the various models that used to be available. Whenever I read them I feel so depressed about what we let our politicians do to us in this country

I agree - these are great pistols

My very first pistol was a Mod 5, bought new from Bagnall & Kirkwood in Newcastle around 1969/1970. Sadly no more due to house fire in 1985 but remembered with fondness

Nice

Is this a painted or plated finish?

Shot mine an hour ago using the LP53 Crikey that was tough! Resting the barrel on the rest the POI is much higher then free standing.

Excellent summary Graham - looking forward to more installments

Excellent overview - the post war ones before the alloy type are my favourites
