Answer: Ukraine. They like them because they are water-cooled, so the barrels don't need switching because they take longer to overheat and mis-shape while firing!

Upwey Men's Shed restianing the museum enterance ramp:
Upwey Men's Shed hard at it again restaining the Running Rabbits Museum enterance ramp. Great job Rick and Stephen.
The Upwey Belgrave RSL walks side by side with the Upwey Men’s Shed. Both organizations run by volunteers, that are here to support their community. The Upwey Men’s Shed are a crucial part of the RSL maintenance team and we are truly grateful for all that they do for us.
Upwey Men’s Shed is a community based, non-profit, non-commercial organization, accessible to all men. The primary activity is the provision of a safe and friendly environment where men are able to work on meaningful projects, at their own pace and time. Men can just come and have a yarn and a cuppa if that is all they’re looking for. Members of Men’s Sheds come from all walks of life – the bond that unites them is that they are men with time on their hands and would like something meaningful to do with that time. View some of their activities here https://www.upweymensshed.net.au/gallery-1 Contact the Men's Shed: 0418 132 443 or email upweymensshed01@gmail.com
