    I'm getting old and fat so my intrests are more sedentary now-a-days than when I was younger.
    I was brought up using air rifle's and my dad made me a crossbow when I was a teenager. I love weapons of all sorts. Fortunatley I have a healthy fear of the power of weapons.
    I love motorbikes and I've allways been a keen sub aqua diver.
    I live in a village that is a short walk from the country.
    I love running up the lanes with a my dog in a vane attempt not to get any fatter.

    Cheers taz.
  1. . How old are the children? They have the right to live in the family home until they are 18 so if she is the bread winner and you are the house husband you could stay in the family home until the children are 18 and she would be expected to suport you!!! Well thats what happens if the man wants out...... I know you don't want to put your kids in the middle of this but if you are the main carer why should you be expected to leave the kids? All the best taz .

    Snipers

    . In history how many people have actualy been assasinated long distance by a scoped rifle. The most famous must be JFK in 1963 but the supposed rifle (conspiracies aside) was fixed with a scope? How many, if any other assasinations realy happen like that? I think the quote you can do owt in films sums it up All the best taz .

    Snipers

    . In films where a sniper is seen shooting someone and then dismantling his rifle to make a fast getaway they unclip the scope, remove the barrel and stock then put the bits in a bag and run............ So the question is. When a sniper sets up his rifle, fitting the stock, barrel and scope would he then be able to shoot and hit a target without first zeroing the rifle? Surly true long rang snipers rifles are not collasped after each shooting? taz .
  6. . A definition of an accident. The word accident is derived from the Latin verb accidere, signifying "fall upon, befall, happen or chance." In its most commonly accepted meaning, or in its ordinary or popular sense, the word may be defined as meaning: Some sudden and unexpected event taking place without expectation or an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury. Therfore sombody pointing a gun and pulling the trigger can't be defined as accidental. Tragic and sad, perhaps not a criminal act so punishment may not be the answer, but our understanding of what an accident is, is often used to explain negligence, stupidity, imaturity or some other human failing. taz .
  7. . Hi mate. I shoot at Parklodge occasionaly. Also use the one at junction 3 of the M18, but access is from Loversall. All the best taz .
  8. . I think when it comes to Escorts, only people who have owned them should be allowed to comment. Not the friend of a friend who said to a mate.............. Escorts are a good cheap gun and if looked after they shoot as well as any other semi I've seen. I have been on stands and had people joke about my Escort, then go on to get a stoppage using their Beretta............ taz .
  9. . Semmi autos are only as safe as an over under or side by side?? As for the cleaning they rely on O ring seals if gas opperated and do need a little more attention but they only need a wipe down every week and a full strip down clean about every 3 months. Do you strip an over under every week and clean it? if you do then do that to a semi if not do it when ever you want. With my semi I could strip it, clean it and reasemble just as quick as I could with my over under. All the best taz .
  10. .. I have shopped at Euroguns for years and found the staff to a contrast (both good, bad and indifferant). I always got good treatment and advice from Nigel but the other one in the shotgun department nearly always was of no help at all. He is border line rude and has an arrogant attitude that makes me feel as though I am an inconvenience to him for spending my money there. But I have just had my gun repaired there and I will never ever go back there by choice again. More than 5 weeks ago my gun started missing on the bottom barrel, the pin was striking the cart but every fifth or six shot it did not strike hard enough. I drop the gun into Euroguns and was told that the cost to repair would be around £60, so I leave the gun and wait. They told me they would contact me so I waited patientley until they got in touch. So 2 weeks pass and I phone the shop and I'm told it is with the gun smith and when he returns the gun they will let me know. I was supprised at that, I thought they repaired on site so I was wrong to assume that. I wait another week and still hear nothing, so I phone up only to be told now the gun smith is on holiday I wait 1 more weeks (4 now in total) and phone back, only to be told that the gun is still with the gun smith. I lose my temper a bit now and rant a little about Euroguns not telling the truth and not keeping me informed. After a promiss to look into it, I wait for them to contact me. After another week (5 weeks now in total) I phone again and I'm told the gun is ready to pick up (the guy also explaned he did leave a message with my teenage daughter during the week, who failed to pass on the message, so I can't blame him for the last attempt)and I drive round and collect. I walk in and tell them I'm here to pick up my gun, I pay and walk out and nobody once made an attempt to explain, show any sympthomy or even an accnowlegement that I have waited 5 weeks for a spring to be replaced. So service at Euroguns is shocking and I will avoid the place in the future. If they are in trouble, now would be a good time to improve customer standards not drop them. taz .
  11. Does this help? http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:mxWrUi3EpgsJ:www.hatsan.com.tr/pdf/Escort_Semi_Auto_Shotgun/Escort_Instruction_Manual_GB.pdf+drawing+for+hatsan+escort+shotgun&hl=en&gl=uk&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESje2oGfKrMzYTEkD0s6h6CSjdMXIufLRMhCFENiI5bkUrkw1_xr8lQ9aSHzYe50xMJyjq6yYRb_Llauf-K2H2aeh8e6NeN0FMoSF82Uz-sTlW0oxK16Zwjc3iqIsf2WFJmk3q7L&sig=AHIEtbSqbm4OTtaqKaWMEb9SHY0SB03AVQ&pli=1 taz

    Foreign Aid

    . The money for drought and war torn Horn of Africa is terrible and I'm torn between saying yes help them and no let them be. we have been helping for years but they take and take. Their own leaders kill and steal but we still give?? I do not have any answers but we are a soft touch and they know this. The news last week was saying that the poor **** are being told to travel to the refugee camps because there is food and water available. As for India...... I totaly disagree with sending £200 to £300 million a year to help poverty in a country where their own government spend £250 million on a space project. We are paying to eliviate poverty but they pay the same amount on a space programme. taz .
  13. . I have read this thread a few times now and I have attempted to reply to it twice, but on both occasions I felt my reply was inapropriate or just ill informed, so I closed the thread down. But you are worth more than that.... So all I can say is... You have been given a great burden and nothing I say will take that burden away, but I also belive that you would not have been given that burden if you were not strong enough to carry it. Be strong and enjoy the life and love your lad gives you. But I want you to know that if ever it gets to much for you to burden and you need to sound off, I and many others on this site will be here to listen to you. taz. .
