I am not saying Gaystate should not make a bulpup, I said they have copied the Impact and patents are nowhere near ending. Phil

I agree totally however I can see the fee if not linked to a co-terminus license with fac or agc being an attractive income but it will do nothing to control airguns and the whereabouts of the vast majority of airguns is unknown and will stay that way I am certain. There was a chap who worked for me whose 21 year old son was killed by a freak accident using an air rifle some 10 years ago which was tragic but the chap fully understood it was an accident and didn't agree that a license would have saved his son's life.

Well don't go into the light Phill, always look away from Gaystate or you will lose a couple of grand on worthless rubbish so DON'T LOOK INTO THE LIGHT ? Phil

AND...................it won't either, work very well or for very long. Same old crap in a fancy package trying to pinch a potential FX buyer.

After loads of critics saying how awful they are, a number of companies have done there best to copy them and now Gaystate have jumped on the bandwagen with the all new 'Delta Wolf' which will most likely be a load of crap but until everyone has sung it's praises (those who get one for free of course) until of course the market as a whole finds out that like most Gaystates it is not so good but we will see. Well it's in this months Airgun Shooter magazine https://www.myfavouritemagazines.co.uk/field-sports/airgun-shooter-magazine-subscription/ I wait with baited breath..........

An airgun license for england has been talked about for a couple of years but I am not sure this will go any further as it was a huge mess in Scotland but there again look at the poison dwarf who is in charge of scotland. It is a huge task in England to impliment a license because there are thousands of guns around the country with no record of where they are. Personally, I have no issues in having a license as I have both shotgun and firearms licenses so one more is not a problem. Phil

Here you go Jimmy, there are several adjustable elevation / windage torch mounts which should do the job. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Opticfire-Hunting-lamp-gun-scope-torch-mount-dovetail-weaver-picatinny-rail/162596985454?hash=item25db891a6e:g:TLMAAOSwlLBdAmxm On the torch I sent you, the zoom is altered buy unscrewing the lens unit to run from flood to spot beam.

Nice one DB, must admit that I really love shooting pigeon with the Impact and even though I will still use the shotgun over decoys, the .25 hitting a woodie is a great sound. Phil

parden me for asking

Glad you saw the light, fac or sub12 Phil

It may get slighty more fpe over time but as already said, 11,2 is all you need matey. HW guns come with a grease coating in the barrels to stop from rusting and now you have removed the coating from what you said so just use the gun, it will be fine. Phil

Don't worry Mitch we know you are getting to that age so I will pm you all the medication details so the others won't know........................................ Phil -
There are a couple of suppliers who sell parts for older guns, Chambers and John Knib and even if they are not listed, it is worth a phone call as they may be able to direct you or get the part for you. Chambers https://www.gunspares.co.uk/categories/23960/Airgun-spares/ John Knib http://www.airgunspares.com/store/department/64/AIRGUN-SPARES/ they carry Falcon parts so your best bet. Phil

Nothing like team work so well done to you both. Phil -
It seems that the CG gun tested has been upgraded with far superior stock configuration in the grip. After a few rounds of both DTL and sporting, I find the gun handles very much like my DT10 so depending how much dosh falls back into my pocket, I may very well go for the deal. I feel one or two upgrades heading my way, new sub12 air rifle and a new koi pond and filter..........................................its beginning to feel a lot like christmas ? Phil

It is well worth making a pull through and there are plenty of youtube examples to look at, 'Hunters vermin' is a good one but there are plenty more or you could buy a Napier kit which is a good little package. I would not use WD40 as there are various things in there which will not do your seals any good at all. Either the Napier 'Power airgun oil' or another dedicated airgun cleaning oil. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Napier-Airgun-Pull-Through-Kit/324236323503?epid=1305561031&hash=item4b7dfdaaaf:g:JeYAAOSwgPReFQ15 The felt pellets are quite good but over the years trying

As above, my 110 had a heavy coating inside the barrel and took quite a bit of cleaning to remove it, once done, check your output level. I checked mine again after a tin full of pellets which was 11.4 and it stayed there. Phil

My shooting partner and myself are waiting for the go-ahead to shoot rats at a council site. My pal did a test run and took 17 rats in 15mins.......................................So hope this comes off and politics don't get in the way again. ? Phil
