  1. it was a 76 red mini clubman1100 rotten to the core but when you were 17 it did not matter,just happy to not be riding a bike anymore
  2. well i am on number 16 air rifle wise an the two i wish i had never sold were the prosport(standard) and a hw80 that had the vglide kit in it done by mr lewington.as for fac once you go there the airguns kind of lose something in comparison.my litlle hw100ktl was £899 which is more expensive than my rem 700sps .223 that was £850
  3. the old 45 was prone to the big diesel problem.my mates that was 4-5 years old would shoot a little over 6ft/lbs.he had to take it to a gunsmith to sort it
  4. what sort of pen pushing inbred idiot thought those rules up.it is over 2000ft but it is not a mountain.wtf
  5. cheers,only downside to more practice with the rifles is my shotgun card this morning was the worst i have done in a long time
  6. sorry this is the best pic i have of it
  7. just had a little play with the hw today just to compare with the results i get with my .22lr.all shots were taken at 20y standing as soon as on target not so much effort as in comp shooting just a little quicker.50 in total .air rilfe group was on the far right
  8. keep getting these little feckers in the back garden at night.only about 3" long
  9. easy to answer i wolud be on the next plane to oz.for a hobby i would get a good metal detctor and feck off into the bush
  10. many years back when i did rwyb there used to be a couple of the vipers tearing up the strip terminals were about 128 mph.but if your after the best noise on the planet you can not beat two top fuels
  11. just got to love the sound of a v8 going down the strip.allways wanted one but will never be able to afford it.about 12 years ago i got my 2l n/a gte 16v down to 13.3@106mph which was good for an old astra
  12. that little gator is going to eat her for sure.would you let your daughter do that ?
  13. looks nice but is too expensive for me for what would just be a plinker.years back i had the brocock grand prix in .177 and that thing could outshoot many a rifle at 20y at my old airgun club.
  14. a bit like the useless unt that hit me head on on the wrong side of the road.tells his insurance it was my fault and it went 50/50 as i had no proof or witness.never mind the useless fecks that can not park,indicate keep on their side of the road when joining the main road.or the assholes that do 40 mph everywhere then get shitty when you overtake them in a 60 zone but are still doing 40.how about the muppets that can not use a roundabout even when the lanes are marked out for them to follow.best of the bunch though is the morons on motorways that dont look/indicate when they pull out to chage
  15. i too can youch for the prosport i have had two and i never had or needed to get either of them tuned.only drawback is it is difficult to cock prone and the point of aim differs from prone to standing
  16. they do not need to travel 40 light years as aliens are on the dark side of the moon
  17. well .22 magnum is not allowed when you are in glos.it is not the same and you are not allowed to buy it even though a friend of mine went to 5 gun shops and they all said they would sell him one.the police just told the guy it is not the same even though he said as stated above it is a .22 just as .22lr.lots of heated phone calls/e mails and the police said he had to get a variation to buy a .22magnum on his licence that stated 22rf
  18. well my licence runs out today.emailed them last week and was told my feo would contact me asap.nothing.so from tomorrow does it mean i can no longer use my guns and am i now holding my firearms illegally ?as i understand it i should be issued with a tempory licence is that correct ?
  19. true it make sense that along with everything else these days.pellet tins are probably thinner than they used to be to save 1 pence on production costs
  20. checked the old 100 today and the power is 11.15 ft/lbs nearly the same as the last time i checked it.strange that the pellet went though both sides when last time i tried this it did not make it
  21. here in glos 8 weeks so far for my renewal.one more week and it runs out?
  22. you should learn to shoot cack handed and save yourself the time in the long run.my left eye is so dominant that i started shooting one eye shut for a whole year.gave up on that and then shot with both eyes .2 years later took lessons and was told to shoot left handed.would not do that so i have soldiered on.went to the basc stand at a game show and the instructor said how can you shoot anything with your left eye being so dominant,you should not be able too and you should learn to shoot from the left.anyway another 4 years down the line i can shoot at about the 90% hit rate now but i have to
  23. cheers will be intersting to see what if any increase there has been
  24. lately due to my ammo shortage as my licence is in for renewal i have been playing with the hw a lot more lately.next step i know is to chrono the airgun but does anybody know if the hw,s are prone to an increase in power due to the heat ?.number 2 is does anybody actually know what power is needed for an 8.44gr pellet to go through both sides of a pellet tin at 20yards ?.crude i know but mine will now go through where as before it did not.will chrono it at the weekend,it was making about 11.2ft/lbs at the last check any bets on what it is at now ?
