  1. I had my FAC granted about a year ago and on the visit, the FEO warned me that any runs ins with the police and my guns will be taken prior to any investigation. I've no record etc, it was a statement of fact that the SWP are doing that for anyone.
  2. Give your reason as you want to get a dedicated night sight rifle and you want keep the day rifle with its normal scope on - don't forget the extra mod slot as well
  3. A couple of weeks, but depends on how busy the camera is at night with the infra red. I use Lidl rechargeable AAs. My trail cam is a couple of years old and a generic one off Amazon.
  4. Semi auto and and no problem with 50gm loads, would like to do that in o/u ? Simon
  5. They go for the ducks as they wait outside their house, we hide behind an old goose house and use the waiting ducks as bait (all ducks were unharmed while we were there)
  6. Quite impressed, Pard have just responded and they said 4000 jules and no issue, so looks like its possible. Simon
  7. This overweight item had 10 of our ducks, before we could get home in time to shoot him, Baikal MP-153 SA and Solway 3" 50g BB at 10 mtrs. I think that every bone was broken, like jelly.
  8. I always use rechargeable AA in mt trail cam, uses 8 at a time and my charfger onlt takes 4, so overnight for all batteries to be charged
  9. I've got a saddle mount for my Baikal so I can fit scopes, Pard says that its rated at 5000 joules, so I've mailed them and asked the question. Cheers Simon
  10. so basically a red light to illuminate the area? sounds a bit cheaper than NV ?
  11. Guys I have an issue with close range foxes, They attack my ducks and geese before I can get home in the evening. I've shot 2 on the weekends when I hide up and wait for them to go for the ducks and its usually dusk then and I can see them. My trail camera shows me their out in the field sniffing around the poultry houses and its pitch dark. My thoughts are to get a PARD NV008 and put it on the saddle mount on my SA. Anyone used night vision on a fox with shotgun? I don't need range as I they usually come within 10 mtrs of my hideout and 50g of BB they don't repeat. Cheers
  12. Diluted hibiscrub prescibed by the vet was what we used when one of our cockers had an open wound on his neck and it healed great. Good luck Simon
  13. It seems to very interested in the goose leg and somehow managed to set the trap off but it still won't go in . When you use a caller, do you keep a lamp on or how do you know when the fox has arrived? As I've only got a shotgun, I've got to get him to come to within 30 meters, plus its woodland /scrub and its seems that its main route is through brambles.
  14. Can't use snares as I've got cats and dogs who run over the woods, otherwise it would be good as for the last 2 nights its been coming down the same path. I think that just before the chickens go in, I might try an ambush
