Thanks for the comments folks.
Terry (or others) what are the chances of the FIO agreeing to let me sell it to an overseas collector? is it purely his decision and whether he got out of the right side of bed that morning? or is there a procedure/criteria the gun must meet to be deemed viable for sale?
John, your offer of storing the gun is very kind, I thank you for that, and I will seriously consider your option.
I sincerely hope the FIO aknowledges its value and the outcome is good.
Once again thanks for your help and advice.
