They emailed back wanting additional photos, asked me to remove the scope to show additional info that might be under it. I sent more photos and then they cottoned on to what I was asking and said just ring up to register and quote a firearms register number of the unmodified rifle, and they'd change the caliber. When I did, they didn't want to know the number they'd given me, then couldn't find and wouldn't add 45 ACP, and wanted me to call it a 45 COLT. I refused. They changed it to 45 AUTO, and then wanted me to acknowledge the declaration about providing false information etc. All I wanted was for the register to match what was stamped on the receiver. When they told me their arms officer said to change it to 45 COLT, I told them if he thought 45 ACP and 45 COLT were the same, they need a new arms officer.[/QUOTE]

They are stone cold eedjits

Mine was the very opposite and the lady was easily able to add in my wildcat rounds into the register as well as my custom actions.
