    I emailed gmk in the UK about them a while back.
    They said they were a special order and would take about 6 months to get but said they would probably get some in stock anyway.
    They told me the retail price would be over 1600 sterling.
    Contact www.gmk.co.uk or ardee sports who are the Irish importers for tikka.

    Tell me about it. I had a BEAUTIFUL Land Rover parked outside my house last weekend. Dark olive green matt paint,snorkel,winches,sheet steel on the bits that get bashed about,what looked like 2 very large gun boxes in the back and suspension and wheels that would make a unimog turn tail and run! The guy said he had paid more than the price of the thing to get the work done but by Christ it looked worth it :(

    £1600 = $2600?!?!?

    That's a lot of cash for a T3. You're talking Sako TRG's for that price in the states.
