    Spitfire spares is the last place I would go for a sensible valuation. That said, it’s been a while since I bought a Browning. I paid £300 for one on the open market about 10 years ago.

    Thanks for info, much appreciated. A Norwegian said £5000 so I have no clue really

    Ok assuming its it good condition and can be traced back to a spitfire for example once deactivated in the region of£2000 to £2500. If you Google deactivated brownings you should find a few.

    spitfirespares list the same price as you do.

    Thank you for the clarification DCK.

    It wasn’t clear from your post. I was merely pointing out the potential problems if, as I’d assumed, we were talking about the UK.

    Sorry about that.

    I cannot help wondering: has said Police Officer heard of Section 5 (1) of The Firearms Act, perchance?!

    Wasn’t the focus of my question, but the machine gun is in police custody in Norway after the owner turned it in.

    You must have missed something. There were less people due to the shabby weather. Its still basically the same place, same bus, same people 😀

    I would call it a ‘complex replica’ and the closest you are going to get outside Paul Allen’s example. As long as people are not trying to claim other wise (I know a few have tried) it is all good and sparks an interest in the younger generations to delve a bit deeper.

    Thank you!

    Can’t help you much, but Leif Lundsten test flew the Spitfire 13 November 1943 for 35 minutes (three seperate flights) from Eastleigh.
