  2. where will i get sealkit for my hw100?
  3. When i went to charge my gun up,the dust plug snapped.I tappedit out and got a new plug but it is now leaking quite badly from the plughole,both with the plug in or not.Is this something i could tackle myself? I did read further down this forum that it can be caused bt a bit of debris jamming the valve,anyone got any thoughts?
  4. theres two black bull xs ,look like theyve seen plenty work, been picked up near grantshouse, ,scottish borders/eat lothian, any one lost them?
  5. Thanks for the replys, tried it tonight and twisting the lamp head seemed to cure it.
  6. Can anyone tell me where to get a decent bulb for a striker? The one i just bought is useless, gives a ring of light with a large duller ring in the center of the beam. It was a 100 w osram buld,
  7. I live in berwick and there has been trouble with pikeys driving a transit sized vw van, pale green, ladders on top and a dent in the side where they were rammed when a local keeper caught them trying to get his dogs, This was a few weeks back, but i saw the van again this week locally.
  8. i got done in scotland in the eighties with rabbits, not as game, they used the night poaching act from the 1800s. Also i hear some lads from the n/e lost dogs at lowick near berwick a bit ago.
  9. diffs are hopeless on freelanders,they break incessantly, gearboxes can be iffy on rangers, 5th gear fails, id agree 3.1 trooper takes some beating, make sure the chassis is ok though,especially at the back end.
  10. i've got a 3 year old 3/4 whippet- 1/4 beddy that i got from kennel maid on here,think that was the name anyway. he is a funny little dog and i took a long time to warm to him, after i went out with bigears and saw his beddy dog working i realisedthat most ofhis funny ways came from the terrier. He is terrifically keen, a little too much maybe and he has had some terrible injuries, he looks a bit like frankensteins dog with all his scars.
  11. used to kill a lot of mink on the local beaches with my dogs and they are tough little fuckers, would'nt put my ferrets near them.
  12. I am working my potting/netting boat singlehanded and there is always the possibility of ending up in the gear when shooting away so i want a good knife to hang around my neck, to cut myself loose if need be. Any suggestions?
  13. i heard ,on radio 2 news,that four lads hadbeen arrested for killing wild animals and pets. they took 6 lurchers and 2 labs and a cannibis plant.
  14. i,ll take these,tried to phone you just now but got answerphone
  15. not sure about your area but you do not need a permit for winkling in northumberland seafisheries area. Shellfishing,ie.pots/nets is governerd by a permit /pot tagging system but anyone can apply for tags for up to five pots,you are not allowed tosell any of your catch and you are onlyallowed one lobster and five crabs per day.
  16. i have one of trevors bitches,she can most definitely work but an open forum is not the place for discussing that. If nobody keeps working deerhounds,where will the blood for crossing come from?
  17. whins fishing is mostly in his head, he hasnt been to sea this year and when he does go its only to chase cast lobsters, nothing too difficult
  18. what i would say moscow this blackwater fella , seems to have been around a wee while . one can tell by his ways of talking of said types in the running dogs , he knows full well the capabilitys of said types where it may be the collie cur etc to the full hound type , AND HE SEEMS TO HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE MIXES OF THEM , some are going down a furrow that he may of allready trood and can give a honest opinion on certain types . sometimes i think he may not of understood the requirements that some need now in there animals but i suppose when a certain few are shouting all and sundry this a
  19. will someone build a gloryhole for whins biggest fan?
  20. Many thanks for the offer marksman but i bought the ringkit from you a couple of weeks ago and someone has put them in for me, seems to be cured. He said that the oring where the bottle under the gun attached was very hard.
  21. Thanks for that Davy, found some stuff about stripping springers down, will there be much difference? Which/how many orings should i be looking to change, there is quite a few in the kit.
  22. Following on from my post about losing the air pressure from my hw100 i have bought a set of o rings from Marksman , many thanks for speedy delivery, and i am wondering if anyone knows of a guide to the dismantling of the gun and the fitting of the relevant orings?
