    i would allways buy new.your faith in the gun will start from day 1.stick with bolt action,semi autos and pumps are ammo eaters.the only semi auto i ever owned jammed constantly.and when your lamping from a truck and it jams it isnt the safest feeling in the world trying to extract a live round from a very very small chamber..i would never own 1 again..you could do a lot worse than going with the cz.exellant working guns.

    l200..on to my 2nd one.my previous 1 was a 04 plate.never had any trouble with it in the 3yrs i owned it and it was well used!!..curent 1 is a 06 plate,had it 5 month now and no probs..if i had to choose other than a mitsy it would be the hilux.

    i cant see what all the fuss is about.i had a red cross bred bitch years ago that would stay all day/night if needed but i could call her out at any time.yes i had many remarks about the bitches gameness if she would leave a fox but its amazing how many ''hard'' digging men wanted to use her in bad digging spots just to try get a quick bolt..bolting terriers have there uses.dont knock them.

    hi folks.new to this forum.rebel can you get access to a rabbit pen?..as with everything involving training,patience is the secret.the little dog is only doing wha he was breed to do..go back to basics.you say you have just aquired him,2 or 3 weeks spent basic traing again might be your answer..as with all cockers YOU need to apply the brakes..get him hard on the stop whistle.go back to the basic training,get him on the sop whistle then only when you think hes ready get him in a rabbit pen..try not to put the dog in a position where he is doing wrong..be patient.good luck...oh and why gethim t
