i still would like answers to my last four questions, re reproofing...

it would seem we should take advantage of the uk reproofing service for old guns we plan to have imported into our country...because:

- reproofing to current uk specs would expand ammunition options here?

Depends on what it was proofed for, don't you think?

- in a competitive market a gun carrying the most up to date proofs would be more desirable than a gun last proofed, say 80 or more years ago?

Not if the gun is still within proof (this has been stated quite a few times, but you seem to ignore that.). If it is not in proof then whether it adds value depends on why it is not in proof, don't you think?


Quote
- still wondering how long it takes to have a gun reproofed and at what cost?

Why does it matter?


Quote
- and if reproofing an old gun does enhance its resale value, then would a london house reproofing be more advantageous, versus a birmingham house reproofing?

No.

That putty between your ears is mighty thick.
