I have to admit to being a little baffled with the 'bolt action' pen.

As a bolt action has the twofold function of extracting a used cartridge and re-loading a live round, a magazine is required. For all its, detail, I can see no magazine. On the .303 with which I was familiar, such magazine would have been on the underside, just forward of the trigger guard.

Not at all. Not being an expert, I could only view it from my own expereince,limited to firearms from decades ago. I would still be interested to know, where, in such a rifle, one would find the magazine.

Unfortuntately,all this seems to be a diversion from the the pens themselves, which appear to be well crafted.

I have to wish your friend well in his venture,but after almost a life-time,I have two oldish pens,with re-fills available,which remain my favourites.
I don't need any more,and am not driven by fashion or pseudo something else to try another.
Maybe I have reached the grumpy old bugger stage,maybe I am just a boring old f*rt.
I make no apologies for either.
No offense meant of course!

Does anyone know if Jimmy has approved this sales pitch ?

I'll leave this question hanging for a couple of days, and if no-one knows one way or another, I'm happy to ban/delete.......

We are not fucking Rymans or something........ :D

To be fair I had a look at the site and they are quite nice if quite expensive.i suppose they link to our hobby

However Phantom is correct its a single post unofficial advert really isn't it ?

Yes, the only post from a new member that "has a friend making these".
TBH,I was waiting to see if anything more happened,I have seen much worse,and was willing to ignore it.
Do as you see fit P.
Jimmy did scan the site a few days ago,I believe this was posted after.

sales post deleted and user banned (well I think I got it right).......

most of the places I visit, have zero tolerance on sales/spam etc - unless it's been approved by the site "head honcho" first.

Couldn't see anything like that so...........
