  1. A friend of mine had one of those C cell torches. He used a couple of plastic pipe clips turned flat side together with a couple of dowlings so it would hold the torch onto his 30mm tube scope. Worked perfectly well until he got his Clulight. I'll stick with my UltraFire 300 that I got after I tried using the double AA Tesco torch, looked great worked great in a built up area but out in the field it was a dismal failure:thumbdown: Phantom
  2. ang on one cotton picking moment!!!! I thought the AA S200 had dibs on the "Lighter (or light) Side" :11: Phantom
  3. Nice shooting I used a couple of cable ties until I could afford got a proper lamp mount Never could get on with that one Then Si gave me a figure eight one, Now I won't be without it its perfect Phantom
  4. If its only surface rust, the a tip I have used that I picked up on here was a rub down with a scrunched up bit of foil then a wipe down and a final wipe with an oily rag! Worked very well As for Air Pressure, it may have a leak or he may have just let it go below the 'holding pressure'. With most air arms models (and a few others as well) if the pressure gets below a certain number, then it will not hold the valve closed and it will then vent the remaining air It does not take long to pump it up from scratch (even less with a bottle) just be sure to open the bolt so the air you pu
  5. Bah Humbug!!! Get yersen an S200 I shot Si's R-10 and barely hit a target Mind you I was suffering from a distinct lack of sleep, 24 cans of stella; two cans of cider as well as others and dehydration and sunstroke at the time But my baby didn't let me down, she took it all in her stride and got me the trophy even though she was well down on air pressure My baby out shot me with a style and grace all her own :11: Phantom
  6. You guy's not had any of Davy's daughter's multicoloured (almost totally green) sponge cake? Yah dunno what yah missin! Shame I couldn't finish it, it was pretty good and I'm still breathing :11: Phantom

    i shot a pinky aswell when i was 14 with my supersport open sights i was aiming for the head but got its neck, still got the pellet somewhere, top quality milbro calidonia No wonder you got it in the kneck With that kind of quality pellet, I'm incredibly suprised you didnt hit it in the ass Guess you were aiming at the Pinky that was five feet to the right at almost point blank yeah? :11: Phantom
  9. Well I guess I'm gonna have to start doing it aint I Anyone got a spare hairdryer?
  10. Very Nicely placed Steve Well done. Had a mouse come and stand next to one of my zero targets once Made a mess of it I did :11: Phantom
  11. Hi there I believe that in the UK an FAC is an FAC (if you know what I mean?) I don't think there are any differances, in fact I'm sure there are none. Contact your local Police Force, they will have details on their website on how to apply (our local force does). Phantom
  12. Hey Marti, Just sent that link for you. The plastic that you get from the art shops is an acetate sheet. Not too cheap if the prices of them round here are owt to go by Was going to do same myself. I used the quality street wrapper for a while, but the filters I got are far superior as they are 'optically pure' and allow a huge amount of light through them. Phantom
  13. Forgot to say "I am Honoured" And you know the same runs both ways :friends: Phantom
  14. Thank you Si We Will All drink (many a Stien) to it soon my friend Phantom
  15. Yep the list of generous people in this section is far to long to write. When I first Joined THL, it was a totally different place, frequented by a lot of "Bad" people in this section. And thanks to the "Good" people and the Mods eventually they were weeded out and so far have been kept out As Si said, input, advice, physical gifts, meeting up with people etc.... Its a great, no scratch that! its a FANTASTIC community in this section and in this community, we build friendships, some to the extent that they become our family or part of our family :friends: Thats the kind of relati
  16. I've been lucky with my permissions as I have people in and out of the cemetery while I'm shooting during the day and even had one the other night after dark. Of course there are people walking around that area as its surrounded by roads Not had the ARV out yet, but a van, a car and the Helicopter twice when I first started on the cemetery and the paddock. Andy I'd certainly drop the power closer to 11 or 11.5 if you really want to push it. Phantom Just read your last post Good Man It still wont make me sleep any better though, but the tablets will help :11:
  17. Si did a little tutorial about it Click the link to see it Phantom BTW I've never done it.
  18. No Darren It just means that we can't all afford them I think Daystate are possibly the "Designer Lable" of the airgun world. Electronic triggers etc.... I only know a couple of owners and they won't take them out of their cases until it stops raining. Neither are Hunters. If they were to scratch them, there would be rushing them to the nearest Harley Street Cosmetic Surgeon to repair Phantom
  19. Nice little haul there The Litter pickers would have been useful on the R1 if they were another couple of feet in length. Perhaps I'll grab one (pun intended!) for when I go out with Dillan in the future, instead of my long nose forcepts. The numbers of scaley tails indoors and around the farm will be increasing now with the amount of cold weather we are having:boogie: Phantom
  20. Think I'll have a go on the old 3-9x40 that I have. It goes a little 'milky' when on max mag, but then its a dirt cheap scope (£30) thats now sat on top of a refurbed WestLake B2 Phantom
  21. It looks like how I imagine the one that got it under the chin in the nest in the roof would look :11: Nice shooting H&H Phantom
