  1. That's what I was getting at for me personally!
  2. As already mentioned, seems more to that than we see!
  3. The whole thing is a farce! Disruption has been terrible for those concerned, those arrested are innocent, there may never have been a drone and nobody has found any evidence. Is this a joke, lets look at the wider security implications, why wasn't this thing tracked by the incredible electronics available, and/or blown out of the sky instantly? This just shows how easy is it for a terror attack to be made on an Airport/anywhere! 4-5 days of Police/security services time for NO RESULTS!
  4. That's what I said in bold letters.
  5. It simply depends on your situation. I have had FAC air as well as 12ft lb and rimfire/centrefire/shotguns/pistols etc for years, and whilst I have no intention of parting with my FAC AIR it is without doubt the LEAST used of all my guns!
  6. Wrong place wrong time, tragedy!

    Advice

    Darriel interesting start to THL. There seems a lot left out of the original post and I know you want sympathy. Fact is your post is typical of todays society, its always someone elses fault!
  8. Worth a try. http://www.brocock.co.uk/
  9. https://www.opticswarehouse.co.uk/product/delta-titanium-2-5-15x56-hd-illuminated-4a-sf-riflescope/ Don't know it myself but this looks interesting, even if it is sales biased!
  10. 25-30ft lb can be very useful if you need that bit more than 12. I don't see its worth the issue going from 28-30 but see how you get on with it. Bisley Mags always worked well from what I recall from way back, but as always you will need to try a few pellets to see what works best for you/gun and the quarry! Great guns! ATB!
  11. If they are cheap enough then go for it and maybe in 100-150 years, if you look after them, they may be worth a couple of quid more!

    Canal life

    Idiot, couldn't make his mind up to jump or not in the run up, if he had gone for it I suspect he could have cleared it quite easily. There are a number of narrow canals and even more VERY narrow single width locks, and when you stand there looking at them there really do look narrow!
  13. Photoshop or perspective, its easy to make a tiddler look big! This is just a minnow!

    Canal life

    I love my boat, and spend many days/holidays/parties/etc on it, but mines a cruiser. There are some exceptional narrow boats and many well equipped for extended living, but I'll stick to the house for living and the boat for fun. ATB!
  15. I've used non toxic for monitoring ongoing contracts for 10 years or more, same with Break backs in AF boxes, both rat and mice. I see the reasoning behind non toxic monitoring baits, but I do have questions about their effectiveness, just the same, any bit of action and you can get some proper bait in! I rate the boxed break backs, as they basically funnel the rodents to the killing zone and personally I find the success rate high.
  16. 100 yards works for me, 17g Hornady V-Max.
  17. You're not going to be jumping over many fences/gates/walls etc for a while. The first few days are the worst with mobility, or lack of it, and washing! Don't rush into anything, a day or two longer is better than too quick!
  18. Seems I missed the other thread!
  19. FEO's/Firearms Depts commonly know jack, and it isn't them that make the Law. There is no consistency over vast areas of Firearms enforcement from Region to Region. Your FEO/Region does not bring any prosecution, it is down to those allegedly qualified in this area to do the job, and they can utilise any resource their region wants, or can afford, to bring a prosecution. The chances of problems are slim whatever, but to ensure you avoid any issue just stay within the Law.
  20. My business is pretty specialist as I concentrate on shooting work, and I get lots of work from other pest control companies who advertise everything but don't really get involved with shooting. Just the same I still have to rely on the other elements of Pest Control to make a living. Paperwork, courses, qualifications and in particular R.A.M.S. are a pain, and don't expect to make much of a living working for anyone else!
  21. It was in the newspapers so it must be true!!!! I'm not sure I will actually be there this Boxing Day, but I can assure this forum that Harry is the best shot of all the Royals. He is an amicable and confident chap and whilst he will obviously take on board his wife's feelings, I rather expect that if he wants a shoot, he will shoot!
