Hi all...got my 38 spec. in the mail yesterday, tnx for the fast
service guys...won't even open it until I can show our club at the
show and tell this Tue, the packaging and manual are great.....
 
BUUUUUT....I opened the package and observed in horror the title
page of the manual!!!...Up here in Canada, we have a government
that believes anything that makes a loud noise is BAD (except
politicians of course) and anything that looks like a ***********
WARNING - THE FOLLOWING WORD MAY OFFEND SOME READERS *********
"gun" is evil incarnate....combine that with our customs people
that have absolutely no sense of humour and believe that anyone
that has, is better off incarcerated, and you have a situation
that would make delivery of this package impossible if they had
bothered to open it at the border....
 
Anyway it got here, will keep you posted if any problems occur.
