The 'homeless' look is now in!

 

[Stormkhan]

To be honest, that's pretty much standard costume for a majority of the British public.
Oooop 'ere in Yorkshire, anyhow.

I didn't realise the homeless were such ardent followers of fashion.

The jacket came from a Saville Row tailor.

I used to have a 100% wool tweed hacking jacket that came from Saville Row ... that I'd picked from a charity shop in West London. I got so I couldn't fit.
I still have a day-wear frock coat, charcoal grey/black that still fits me (Amazeballs!) that I'd found in a South London charity shop.
It can happen.

Mr Frideswide used to have a 3 piece Harris Tweed suit from somehow posh in London. Fabulous fabric and cut and... then someone else's cat gave birth in the jacket and trousers and.... it was never the same.

I think it was £3 from a charity shop

Mine is Haggarts of Aberfeldy.

Haggarts of Aberfeldy

Sadly no longer a High Street presence: but it is now a lovely restaurant www.threelemons.co.uk (I try to partake, whenever my autogyro needs to get refuelled from the Coop filling station next door)

View attachment 72054

It’s a Steyr Mannlicher rifle receiver with double set triggers, attached to a Charter Arms Bulldog revolver frame.

You should be able to knock one up yourself.

For look, I'd go for a Chiappa Rhino. Or a Calico 9mm carbine.
I'd love a Laugo Alien - but a tad pricey.

How much would that cost? Apart from obtaining the rocking horse poop?

Older Steyr Mannlicher receiver? In the order of £200 - £400. Here's a full rifle, including a nice scope, that's almost right bar the lack of a double set trigger.

Charter Arms Bulldog? Deactivated, in the order of £250

The S-M receiver would have to be on Firearm Certificate. (I suppose you could have one deactivated at additional cost to yourself, though.)

I know!
But I’m not really in a position to be ordering gun parts willy nilly am I?
And the grip itself would be a bit pricey and wiring and lights in there too.
