    Fair comment but I know two people who did exactly that and it worked fine.

    Phone them up saying your computer is knackered and you don't have access to another so could you send it in the old way.................... you never know. Phil

    I am going Thursday and will use the club bows but if I get hooked, I will need to learn some more about them as they are quite technical pieces of kit and the fact that some of them are adjustable on the cams to change the poundage. Clever stuff.

    I used to hand my paperwork in at my local police station for transferring to the firearms licencing deptartment but it became a bit of a gamble as and when the paperwork would get through if at all....... Phil

    That depends on your police force, some allow some don't. Phil

    Well having been a few times to watch my daughter, I have booked in myself this Thursday but I have decided to go with the compound bow which is a different sort of animal altogether. I did have a feel and drawer on one that was for sale, bloody amazing thing, when you draw back the string to max, the cams lock out and there is no effort at all holding the string while getting your aim. I feel a new interest looming up here............ This is an example of the compound bow, click on the picture to get a far better image. EK Archery Anvil Compound Bow - Camo

    Welcome aboard matey. I don't think either of the above chaps are active members anymore as it is 8 years after the last post and 12 years from the first post, Very interesting subject however. Phil

    Is that really you Ethan, can't be, you are way to tall for that little fella I remember. So grandad forgot the magazines....................it's an age thing Ethan but at least he remembered to put his trousers on. I agree with you regarding the Wildcat, superb little gun, I wished I still had mine but it had to go in order that I could get the Impact. It's good to see you back shooting and on here matey. Phil

    About an hour after posting this thread, I popped down to the sea wall 1.5 mile away and the wind made it very difficult to stand still without the gusts pushing me around. Today no wind, Great, I can spend some time with the rifle............................then it started to really throw it down with rain. Can't bloody win !!! Phil

    Never heard of it but why not sending BSA/Gammo an email to find out if you can get one. Phil

    That is one hell of a name there fella and I seriously wonder WHY but anyway. All Italian gun makers skeet vests are made very small so forget makes such as Beretta, Perazzi and Caesar Gueirini. Try to get a Musto as they make larger sizes and also have a built in extension which opens up another 3'' to aid fit although I am not sure they still make them. Another good company to try is Jack Pike and Seeland with the latter being very well made. I have a number of skeet vests but my favourite by far is my Castellani mesh vest and possibly the best skeet vests out there but be prepared to pa

    My youngest daughter has been going for archery lessons over the past few weeks with her pal. She and myself did a bit of archery about 16 years ago but nothing since that. Yesterday Trish and myself went along to watch them, the coach asked if I wanted a go so not needing to be asked twice, I had a three arrows set which I managed to get on the board in a 5'' group off to the left side but nevertheless they were on the target. At the end of the session as we were getting ready to leave, Trish asked if I fancied a taster session to which I said yes so next Thursday we are both booked in

    I was texting Mitch the other day, chatting about my Impact fac etc and whilst on with him, he asked me to pass on to you guys his regards and best wishes so here it is. I keep in touch with him on Airgun forum. He is a little quieter on there than he was on here but still lays some cracking one liners to some of the guys. Phil

    I have never been keen on internal chokes as I like to see whats in there and just give a twist with my fingers to check they are tight and with this in mind, the internal chokes of this 682G are not to my liking. I looked for an independent manufacturer for some extended chokes but the price was bloody high to say the least then I found on Beretta's Italian site that they made a set for the 682 called Victory which are not available through GMK (UK importer). I had heard some good things about Brieley guns and their chokes so I thought it would be worth checking to see if they had anything t

    Over here in sunny Lincolnshire we have for over a month now had super strong winds, not gale force but bloody strong to the point that shooting with air rifles is a waste of time as the gusts vary so much and even with my Impact .25 fac, I cannot get a 45yd zero established let alone going out to 100yds. To say I am pissed off is a slight understatement as all I have been able to do is pratt around in the RFD's 25mt range which is not going to tell me a great deal about holdover at 80yds or carry out a proper pellet test on the three types of pellet I will be using. I spent £200 having all

    A change of plan, my pal who owns the rifles and gear is taking them all back to pass on to his sons so in all honesty, I don't know what will be left with me so I am not able to confirm at this moment if I will be able to give you the sights. Don't buy any yet though because he won't be picking up the gear for a week and youu are not desperate for the sight yet so just hang fire and lets see what happens, I will let you know when I know BN.
