Just got off the phone with him.  Real friendly guy too.
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Yes, good ol Bobby Hoyt.  He will do right by you.  Plus the fact that he loves to shoot chunk and well also.  (at least when he puts the ball on his own target. :D

 I spoke to Bob awhile ago re relineing an original Pat 53 Enfield barrel, only reason have not sent it to him yet, not sure how much trouble to get it back into Western Australia, customs and the like.   Guess ways and means.
Real friendly bloke, and well reckomended by the blokes on the British Military Forums site.  Lots of good stories of him there.

Cheers
