I have a no1 mk III as do many other Aussies. The mk3 isn't very accurate but they're great fun to shoot. I'd be interested to see how others load them because unless I manually load each round with the rim of the following round in front of the previous, the rims get stuck on each other and that's the end of any rapid fire capability.

Loading from a stripper clip puts one rim behind the other which is strange. Wonder if its just mine

I'm waiting for a good deal on a no4 mk 1 now, but before that I have to buy another safe!
