    I wouldn't pay $900 for a fully suppressed JW-15 (it's just a Turkish JW-15 copy after all). I also wouldn't pay $1200 for a suppressed Savage. I suggest there is a very small market for these...

    I’d go for the Howa 1500. It’s modeled off one of the earlier Sako actions, and has been used by a number of other manufacturers such as Weatherby.

    While the Police don't recognize deactivated firearms, that is policy rather than law. It is possible to deactivate firearms, much to the displeasure of the Police, in a manner that retains the...
