I'll take this please mate. Pm'd you Mitch

Also fully BASC insured and very responsible!

Hi all, as above I have some pigeon shooting available on a farm in llanvapley Abergavenny. I do not know how to build a hide or decoy or shoot pigeons at all basically but can shoot well with a shotgun- would like someone to teach me how to pigeon shoot with all the associated bits and bobs tactics etc in return for a day out and you can keep all the pigeons we shoot. As long as you are fairly experienced and can actually teach me something! Lol Not massive amount of pigeons but I have a 10 acre ish field around barns and a 23 acre field both just grass at the moment- also a small wood

Hi mate what scope and mod is on this? Whereabouts are you based? And could I see a few pics please? Cheers, Mitch

Hi Roy, could I possibly have a few pictures please? I'm based in Newport and work in bristol so F2F no probs. I'll PM you now. Cheers, Mitch

I think thats true mate to an extent. If the little bones in you ear didn't vibrate then you wouldn't hear anything at all. However, for clay shooting I would always wear full ear defenders rather than just plugs Mitch

Well lads I've finally bitten the bullet and bought a shotgun! I was looking at the browning maxus and A5, but sportsmans gun centre had a beretta A400 xcel sport with the new kick off recoil system- £1500 new, but got a second hand one in literally MINT condition for £900- steal!! (With obligatory freebies!) Anyone had experience with these? It's got a cracking piece of wood on it, and I'll be picking it up next Tuesday so will post pics ASAP! Cheers, Mitch

Quite like the weight of them, but might get tired of that. Makes it feel quality and proper if you know what I mean? Lol Only problem is nowhere near me stocks the savage so can't compare! Driving me nuts! On the good side my FAC and SGC arrived yesterday so happy happy!!

Any reason why either is better in your opinion guys? Just price and aesthetics? Cheers, Mitch

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has experience with either or both of these rifles and could tell me which is better and why? Savage is more expensive but there isn't deal on which means I can get the savage with a Nicki sterling scope and mod, and Harris bills for £590 brand new. Seems a bargain! But am I better off going for the well known CZ? Both thumb holes though! Will be either .17hmr or .22lr Any advice appreciated! Cheers, Mitch

I can vouch for this. Bought an 11 plate 9-3 180bhp turbo and it does 50mpg combined at least and rapid off the blocks. Solid car and absolutely worth the money. Parts are now cheap and service has never been more than £250 including parts and labour! Good luck with the sale mate!

I think for me it was the innate natural desire to hunt and do 'boy stuff'! Always used to play with toy guns and bows and arrows, and Got my first air pistol when I was 8 (webley tempest) and progressed from there! More kids need to get into the countryside these days I think. (Forgive me for sounding like an old fart then!) Mitch

Its even cheaper if you do it yourself, lots of good instructions on youtube, my mate the Seeker did his trigger on his 10/22 and it improved it a hell of a lot, rimfire magic up at Barnsley do some awesome custom 10/22s I know a lad thats got one, and it is amazingly accurate. Ah tidy thanks for the tip mate I'll have a little look online! Got to admit I am swaying towards a 10/22 at the moment! Cheers, Mitch

Cheers Steve! Good luck with your shooting mate- I'll put some pictures up when I finally get my guns! Cheers, Mitch

Haha yer literally 5 minutes lol. Might try CS sporting that's not to far from me! Lmao think I'll leave keens then! Unless they go bankrupt and I can snap up some cheap kit of course lol
