  1. OK, my Falcon FN 19 Skeleton which I bought new in about 2000 is in need of more work. Its not been the most reliable gun in the world throughout its life, but more problems now. I'm beginning to think it is time for a new gun, technology has changed a lot in the last 23 years. Let me be clear, this is a work gun, my Falcon has run between about 19-30ft lb throughout is life as circumstances dictated, it is currently running at 28, which works fine for the work it is generally doing now, that gives me a first zero around 12 yard and a zero of 58 yards with little more than an in
  2. That looks like things are opening up!!! Unheard of hear. Every time the law changes in this country it simply gets tighter!
  3. You are way ahead of me technology wise, I've nothing to record like that! Maybe I should look more into it, loads of people filming these days!
  4. ....and another thing, just what is wrong with people, we are a bit short of a few fruit and veg, get over it, the whole international food supply chain is working feverishly to resolve the situation! When they do, you will probably notice a price rise, and complain about that as well, its called supply and demand, its been around forever!
  5. Indeed, it is NOTHING to do with Brexit. In addition, the French pay more for pretty much everything food related than the UK, so when there is an international shortage the suppliers stick with the countries they make the most profit from, like France. I'm there a lot, and it never ceases to amaze me how expensive general food items are compared to the UK. There is very little I bring back except wine!!!
  6. Her recent BBC exploits made me even more convinced she is dangerous and should be kept out!
  7. Hi Everyone, I need the help of you clever people please. My FN19, about 22 years old and running around 26Ft Lb is not cocking. This has started, and got worse over about the last 4-5 magazines (around 36 shots). It works sometimes and then you try and cock it, and no matter how hard and far back you pull the bolt, it simply will no cock. I struggle for a while and then it will maybe cock properly 2 or 3 times and then simply refuse to cock again. I don't pretend to be a Falcon expert but this seems strange to me, can anyone help me solve this problem please? Gun is pretty us

    Car washes.

    I thought I was getting old but obviously not, I do it myself but I certainly don't enjoy it.

    Exactly, Albania is not the country it used to be! Went there on holiday about 4 years back, now I don't pretend to have inspected the whole country but, it far exceeded my expectations! Send them back instantly!
  10. I'm not following the argument, so, are you saying we should give up and let her in? What we need to do is keep her and all the illegals out, we are reminded daily of the illegal channel crossings, I don't see a few headlines about her takes anyone's minds off the channel issue!!
  11. Of course it makes odds, and we should be stopping them as well, rather than rolling over and being shafted!
  12. Good question as she is no longer a British citizen, but I understand a lot of charitable/legal organisations are chipping in. Just the same, if she ever gets back here it will be the taxpayer looking after her keep.

    I'm far to precious about my car to let anyone touch it, don't even let the main dealer clean it when its in for service. Saves me money and I get a better job when I do it!
  14. Ok, seen it from the link posted now, thanks for that. All rather unfortune, to put it mildly!!!

    RIP Motty

    Always that coat wasn't it, I think he was pretty good as well!
  16. Someone has some explaining to do, but it won't come out of their pocket!!!
  17. Never thought about sand blasting any trap. Cleaned a few with soap/water when in dire need, but in principle the patina, aroma, dirt seems to add something..... personal view of course!!
  18. Nobody seems to know...or nobody seems to know how to fix it...been like this a month or 2 now!!!
  19. Sadly there is more than a little truth in that, and all Sadiq Khan keeps going on about is how............ multi culturalism has been a great benefit to London. What planet is he living on?? He seems to be the Teflon man, incredibly good at blaming everyone else for his shortcomings.
  20. I seem to recall many years back when I came over to you we saw a field full of Hare, probably saw more that night, than I have seen in Berkshire in total, ever!!!
  21. I'm a bit out of touch, has it been confirmed it is actually her they have found???
  22. I guess you have got the idea now, but if you look at the bolt you will notice the firing pin is aimed at the rim of the cartridge and not the centre as well.
