  1. Yes don't go near that stuff, anything trapwise, they also operate under Atlantic Stratford, Them bodygrips their advertising are actually to put it bluntly shite, they are about half the power of a genuine BMI bodygrip "Magnum Trap" 110 and about a 1/3 of the power of a 116 BMI Magnum rabbit/mink trap..The spring arms are also very inconsistent, some traps only being able to set on the lightest trigger setting due to wrong spring arm angles... The fenns what more can you say cheap chinese junk, you may as well throw your money down the drain, pay the extra and get some genuine traps that will
  2. Pacha are pretty good Donk, to tell the truth nearly all the deerhunter stuff is decent for the money really compared to others.. I'd say for the money its the best allround clothing you will get really... yes theres better but its more money again...
  3. I think GPS is a pretty ingenius method for logging locations of a large quantity of traps without the paperwork and maps..
  4. Maybe this will help for getting the general idea, thats been uploaded on youtube.
  5. Should make you around 800 snares or there abouts Snare Wire
  6. Went and had a feel of one the other day, I'd previously used a 20bore beretta and the weight difference is quite large between the two, the franchi is built on a 12 bore action, so its not much lighter in weight than my 12bore silver pigeon... the 20 bore silver pigeon is a lot lighter, which is the reason behind wanting the 20 bore... Overall the franchi is half the price of a silver pigeon but the build quality is nowhere near as good from what i could see, never the less, the franchi would and is a capable tool by all accounts, but I think I may have a deal with a secondhand beretta now, e
  7. Not that it makes much difference on fox snares in normal use, but dissimilar metals shouldn't be used, as it leads to galvanic corrosion over an extended period of time, which could in theory cause the deer stop to fail, if they were left in storage for an extended period of time...
  8. I downloaded the cottontail distress call, sounds great, also got one of these little toys for the mobile phone... cheap as chips fox caller setup http://tinyurl.com/czalat

  10. Micky, try resizing your images first,,, If your using windows xp, get the image resizer from this page http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/Downloa...ppowertoys.mspx the download links are on the right hand side, then all you have to do is right click on the iimage you want to resize and select 640-480, also reduce the quality slightly,, Alternatively if your using vista try this http://www.vso-software.fr/products/image_...age_resizer.php
  11. Thats the problem SS, the prices of all equipment are going up, its unreal people have less money and everythings rising.. Most of the beretta guns are going up 20% soon... everythings on the up, I was looking at a 20 bore beretta other day at a shop, give it a week and its price will have jumped up another £300... supposedly increased manufacturing costs and weaker pound against euro/dollar..
  12. There as bad as rabbits some of the places I go, I shoot the odd one with a shotgun, a few with the rifle, if anyone wants them.... other than that I'd prefer watching a good dog on them anyday..

  15. Their more concerned about anything foreign full stop, same as the government... They don't respect our own traditions but exceptions are made for others, same as jobs, houses, etc, etc...Our countries on its knee's, the economies went to rat shit, the UK citizen is bottom of the ladder, were taxed to death with probably one of the highest taxes in europe, theres laws upon laws and rules galore, you will need to send off to defra to fart next, due to ozone damage, exceeding methane levels...........things are only going to get a lot worse in the future not better...
  16. Fox Facts The gestation period for fox is 53 days just under two month. Most Cubs are born on average around mid March and are blind for the first 10-14 days. A typical litter size is 4 to 6 cubs although vixens have been known to carry up to 12 embryos. A single litter of cubs may be the result of he vixen mating with up to four or more dog foxes. Weaning begins at 4 weeks old and by 5-6 weeks old the cubs will begin to come above ground. The cubs develop their milk teeth by 7-8 weeks and become independant by 3-5 month old. If you clear out one family of foxes another may
  17. Plenty more to go at around and about, the humble bunny will return in abundance come summer there, even with an onslaught of .22 slugs their way
  18. Used to use winchester which I liked, but shells jam now as they have changed their casing diameter slightly and my cz jams with them all the time, so I use the eley now which are pretty good..
  19. Few on some netting fencing, this area has been ferreted and shot to death, to be honest theres only an odd rabbit left around the farm yard now, apart from one green lane that needs finishing off..

Anyone shoot a franchi, I fancy a 20bore, toss up between beretta which I know is better or a franchi for half the price brand new, I'm just after something that's going to get launched about and generally well used... Pegandgun had a franchi and got on well with it, apart from being a decent shot with any gun, toss pot that he is ... Franchi owner opinions please
  21. Nymphomaniac Convention A man boarded an aircraft at London and took his seat; as he settled in he noticed a very beautiful woman boarding the plane. He realized she was heading straight towards his seat and bingo! She took the seat right beside him. Eager to strike up a conversation, he blurted out, 'business trip or vacation?' She turned, smiled enchantingly and said 'Business. I'm going to the annual nymphomaniac convention in the United States '. He swallowed hard, here was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen sitting next to him, and she was going to a meeting for nymphomania
