  2. went down the yellow pages tonight ringing some farms, no luck at all i only managed to ring 8 though (got a 7 month on baby so as you can guess when i get home it "my turn" lol) the farmers were all really nice but kept saying the same thing "sorry ive got enough people" going to try again tomorro though, surely one must say yes, hopefully.

  10. thank for all the replies especially mr logic, top man couldnt ask for any better information, im working on memorising it all now, thanks again to everyone though, also as i mentioned earlier i suffered a bit of depression about 3 years ago, i was treated and am fine now i declared it on my sgc and my feo asked about it but it was never a problem, ive heard there a lot stricter on fac do you think this could cause me a problem?
  11. i guess your right do youthink it could affect my f.a.c though
  12. im 23, they said that i would need to know about suitable backstops and safe shots, muzzle energies from different calibers ect he said if he was satisfied about all this info then it would be granted but until i know this it wont, and i dont see how i can learn all this so i asked if i joined a target club to start with would this be good and he said yes, also a about 3 years ago i suffered some brief depression due to a sports injury, i was treated and all is fine now, i declared it on my shotgun lisence and it was granted they didnt even bother to write to my doctors, my worry is though is

  15. count me in, when will tey be relased and how much r they going for
  16. alright lads and lasses i know you must probably get this all the time but im looking for some permission to do some rabbiting on, what in your opinions would be the best way to go about it i have some permission for some pigeon shooting but the farmer says a big no to anything else, i know im lucky just to have that, but my passion is air rifles, the bloke who was giving me clay pigeon lessons says its near impossiable to gain permission without knowing the farmer first, is this true, any advice would be very muc appreciated. thanks
  17. done!!! looks like we will al have to move on to .22lr's now, to me this seems stupid because if they ban air guns the majority of people wil just get a fac and a .22 to carry on their sport and i thought the gouvernment were priding them selves on the number of fac's being issused dropping each year since the handgun ban, well if they ban airguns the numbers will soar! get he conservatives in they will sort this out!
  18. go for the hw45 mate a brilliant bit of kit dont get one brand new though go on gun trader they are about £150 second hand or you could go for the sherridan eb22 whichis a pre charged pistol they are on gun trader for about £100 brand new either would be sufficent but with the 45 you dont have to worry about refilling, good luck mate
