so my light sport rifle comp has come to an end and my scores for me were not good enough.so the .357 has been used in anger for the first time in a while.comp is only 25y and 3 cards with ten shots on each for one round.so total out of 300 per round.two weeks back i shot my first round and could not get over the bloody nerves and was shaking holding the gun but still put in a 291 ex 300.shot the 2nd round yesterday outside and got a 100 then a 97 and the last card was a 99 so much more like my practice cards.so dropped only 4 out of 300 happy days.you would think that after shooting comps for

thing is i went straight from the gunshop to the police station 500y up the road.lady cop on desk was as helpfull as she could be but ultimately it is a civilian matter even though the law says i am entitiled to a full refund within 30days if the gun is faulty.going through my bank now to see if they will get my money back.never in my life have i encountered this sort of service or lack off.have bought at least a dozen shotguns,6 rifles and over 25 air rifles and probably 30 or so pistols with no problems before going to that shop. -

should have added 2 blokes from the shop stopped me from leaving the carpark without the gun.they stood infront of my car and would not let me leave.surely this is some sort of crime in itself ? -
it is just another way of stopping us from shooting.

so i got the phone call to come back to the shop thinking everything was ok. wrong.when i left the gun with them i told them i do not want it and they said it had to be taken back to suppliers to make sure of the problem giving me the impression once a fault was found i could get a refund. no.so get to the shop and was told they found nothing wrong with it but had it for 2 weeks.told them again i have lost all faith in a non working brand new £1500 airgun and i want a full refund.no.was told its yours and i will not take it back as i can now only sell it as 2nd hand even though i have not even -
so you have to give all the right numbers,passcodes and all that shit then you can not access your account because the bank now says they have to send a one time passcode to your phone ffs.all great if you have a phone glued to your ear 24/7 but i do not.most of the time i do not have it on me .so i get no interest and can not check my balance and really what is the point ?.

just shows you just have to sit back and take it.no choice you can not even protest peacefully.

taliking of that did you see that couple that got a 1.15 billion contract for ppe from the nhs ffs. -
as above really looking for the wood grips and surprise surprise there are none available.looked all over ebay,amazon,solware, j ramsbottom with no joy.anyone know of a supplier with them in stock please.
-
so can not get n340,can not get cci small pistol primers and was told by my local shop nothing till next year ffs.can not get a spare mag for my sig sauer mcx no where incuding solware and dai have a clue when these will turn up.you ask gunshops and they do not know when or if products will turn up.is this a big plan to stop us shooting ?.
-
so £30 on the gate and parking is £16 in advance or £20 on the day.are they taking the piss.really want to go but charging that much to park is out of order.other options are coach which will take 2hours or train that takes 45mins or so but for that price you can only leave at 10.15 am ffs.other reasonable options would be nice like a multi storey not to far away or park and ride from birmingham possibly,what is out there ?.really want to support my sport but assholes up high really do not make it easy ffs.

any dumb shit that runs red lights,does not look/indicate when pulling out,drives in the middle lane,does 30mph in a 50mph,does not give way at a junction or at traffic calming.basically most assholes who drive these days.

so i managed to get some air into the fx but i had to do the filling adapter up as tight as feck.it was allready very tight but not tight enough.happy days i thought but feck no.gun has gone down from 190b to 90b in 24 hours so back to the shop on friday it goes.just aswell it is only an hours drive ffs.really in 2 minds to stay with an fx after this as i have never had a pcp that leaked before.not good when this one was a lot more expensive than all that came before it too. -
so i just picked the gun up and got it home and tried to fill it and no joy.air pisses out from the filling valve.any trick to filling these guns.not new to pcp,s but every other one i have had was straight forward to fill with no problems.adapter is tight on the connector to the bottle and has clamped properly onto the gun.is it fecked or must i do something else to fill it ?
-
looks like he is fecked the money is speaking and doris is not speaking the same lingo.cutting the funding for the bbc does not help his cause and the other rodents want us back in the eu so i think he will have to go.

freezing out but a nice shoot anyway

so i was lucky enough to get the range to myself today and had another go at gallery rifle at 25yards.first card went well with 9 tens then i fluffed it and shot an 8 so 98 scored.a bit upset with myself that i messed up on the last shot.2nd card went really well and i got 100 happy days.3rd card went just aswell with another 100.4th card i hit 100 again.5th card was a 99 with the first shot hitting a nine.last card and my left arm was getting tired and i hit a 97 which is still quite good but it was time to stop.worked out the average over 6 cards and it was 99.just hope this translates into -

anbody else shoot gallery rifle at 50y
.357shooter replied to .357shooter's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
thinking about it the sun was going down and the light was going fast.never noticed a change in the poi before. -
pro sport is as far as i am concerned the best springer out there.so good in fact i bought one and like the idiot i am i sold it.so bought another as they really are that good.best looking air rifle out there too.could hold its own against pcp,s at 50y rested.only downside is some people with fairy hands find the u/lever cocking arm a bit sharp and watch the pin that holds it in place does not pull out slightly as you will carve a slot in your stock if it does.

not me 50+ now.living on borrowed time as we are not built to last past 40 .talking about early humans who would be taken out by something when they slowed down.

caldicot i think still.if you see him just have a go with one of the tuned chinese break barrels he has done.i was impressed to say the least.
