Mervyn Mitton Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Ed - no one ever gave me a tear gas canister for my birthday !! Are the leg irons and handcuffs US patterns ? Surely - even in the US knuckle dusters must be illegal - they are classed as an offensive weapon in the UK and are an 'absolute' (one with no excuse) offense. Leigh, did you ever have anyone carrying one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
