  1. Looking for a new scope to sit on my .270. Something like a 3-9x50. Got around £300 to spend. Please PM with details if you have one to sell. Cheers
  2. AYA Yeoman 12 guage over and under for sale. Ejector, fixed choke. This gun is in very good condition and has had little use over the years. It was bought new by my father and has sat in the cabinet for years. I'm looking for a 223 so would consider p/x or swap for a good rifle. Cash price: £300 Based in Kendal, Cumbria.
  3. I'm looking for a 20 bore or a 16 bore side by side, don't want to spend more that £400. Possible part ex for an as new condition AYA yeoman 12 bore o/u. Let me know what you have got. Thanks
  4. Thank you for the replies - and well said Charlie Caller, excellent advice! I shall go ahead and put the application in, and it will hopefully be successful. Many thanks!
  5. I am looking to have a variation to my FAC to include a .270. I have had my certificate for a .22lr for 2 years and have fired a good few rounds through it. My dad has a .270 in his cabinet that he is happy to sign over to me. I have been on a number of accompanied deer stalks for both red and roe deer in Scotland, and now have written permission for roe stalking on a Scottish estate. My concern is that i'm going from a .22lr to a .270, having only held my FAC for 2 years. I am keen to have the .270 calibre so i can use it for red deer once a year, and for the roe, and i wouldn't have to f
  6. Thanks for the replies! NickinSurrey - she probably would love me for ever but i don't think my love for her (and wallet) can stretch to £650. Thanks anyway.
  7. I am looking for a 20 bore over and under shotgun for my girlfriend, ideally with a shortened stock, although not essential. Anything considered. Please let me know what you have got. Thanks

  11. Natural England are planning on selling off some of their nature reserves which hold a large number of shoots on them. People have been worried that the buyers may be anti shooting and therefor not renew the shooting leases when the time comes. The rumor you have heard may have come from this but got twisted along the way!

  16. I've just acquired a Fabarm mod 130 GO semi-auto, does anyone know where i can find out some information about it? (age, value, manual etc) I've had a look on the Fabarm website but i cant seem to find much info on there about them, Any help would be great! Cheers
  17. You could always try the ag college, i know theres alot of them shoot the farms and college ground. Oh right, i heard that they weren't too keen on it. I'll go and have a word with them.
  18. Hi, I have just moved to Cirencester to study at the Royal Ag. and was looking for some rough shooting or pigeon/crow shooting over the winter in the area. I know it's a bit of a long shot but it would be great to be able to get out of the books and into the field, not looking for much, just the occasional Saturday. I'm 25, a member of BASC and have been shooting for a couple of years. Let me know if any of you guys have land or want a shooting buddy! Cheers
  19. It is an interesting topic and one that should perhaps be clarified by the Home Office. I think it is wrong that in different areas of the country different interpretations of this law are found, something should be done to standardise them. Shooting foxes with a .22 lr can be a bit of a taboo subject, although shooting foxes with a shotgun is readily accepted, even though similar Home Office conditions apply. Both weapons are suitable for the job as long as they are used within a certain range. Bewsher500 provided some great information and i agree that you should be aware of all the
  20. I don't know much about the rules of mentoring but what i will say is that you stand more chance of getting a .22 rimfire and being able to use it without being mentored than you do of getting anything centrefired and being able to use it without being mentored. My guess would be that you should be ok for getting an FAC for a .22 rimfire without being mentored as you have some shooting experience (shotgun) and the land is registered. The interview is also important. If you can prove yourself to be a knowledgeable and trustworthy sort of character, and hammer home to the FAO that you have been
  21. There is no law against shooting foxes with a .22 rimfire rifle. Your local FAO may say that you cannot do so, but without a law behind them there is little they can do to stop you. The law on .22 rimfires states they are suitable to shoot vermin - people disputing this may argue foxes are not vermin, but it would be pretty hard to argue a fox was anything but a vermin - something which has not been achieved in Court to date. The fox is predatory on birds and other animals, it is a pest in terms of domestic fowl and game bird preservation. Police believe that conditions don’t allow foxe
  22. It will be for shooting over decoys mainly so hopefully will be ok. Thanks for the help and advice!
  23. I'm looking at a true cylinder semi-auto for shooting pigeon and crows with. Do you think it's a suitable gun for the job or would i find the range/spray to short? Any info would be great. Cheers
  24. Good man, i can come and get it whenever really so just let me know. cheers
