This is getting ridiculous. I think your government must hate all of us collectors. This mutilation trend sure tends to discourage collecting, buying & selling. At what point does a pistol become unrecognizable to its original form?

Are the Bobbies really afraid of someone robbing a bank with a flintlock? Or is it just irrational fear of anything that goes bang!
