  1. You can't print onto plastic paper with your computer printer, a laser printer has a heater and the plastic will melt and stick to it , knackering the printer. Ink jet ink won't stick to the paper. We use a company called 'Hi-Standard Studios', but there a few more, ring round the bigger clubs like 'Grange, Hodnet, Doveridge or Orston and ask who they use hope this helps kermit
  2. Decent shoot, well work a visit, Also on facebook kermit
  3. We have 100 metre releases, 0.75mm² flex and in one piece. Joining up two lengths of wire, causes a voltage drop (resistance), and as soon as trap battery drops a little it will not fire. kermit
  4. There is a market abroad for traps, but they would need to be advertised to get the sale. Or a gang would need a ready market, which would take some organising. I think the Police have other things to do, and can't be bothered chasing round the country trying to identify possible stolen goods, Steve will have the serial numbers on the invoice, as the traps were new, but few grounds know the serial numbers of their traps, so it would be impossible to bring a prosecution, without positive i/d. I think it's down to websites like this to pass the word round when stuff gets knicked, and for grounds to put some effort into protecting their assets. Unfortunately they don't hang thieves anymore. kermit
  5. I buy and sell clay traps, and refurb them! It was me that found the traps stolen from Bridgenorth. I won't touch anything that is doubtful, usually the price gives it away! But clubs could help themselves by putting some identifying mark on traps, after all they all look alike! Something inside the control box or a splodge of bright paint in an out of the way place under the carousel or throwing plate, and write down the serial numbers. Kermit
  6. Slightly off the subject, but I eating an quantity before I shoot has an adverse affect, it has got worse as I have got older. Always seem to shoot better hungry! kermit
  7. Forhill shooting Club B38 9EB Boxing Day shoot 120 birds 15 stands all welcome kermit
  8. Think there is a liitle club run by Kevin at Hereford Clays & Cartridges HR2 8BL may be worth looking up kermit
  9. Have been to service or repair about a dozen GDK's, and they are a bag of ****, very cheap, very nasty, not fit for purpose. Won't go and fix them any more. kermit
  10. Have some reconditioned Promatic Super sporters, £1100 no VAT kermit
  11. If I get a shooter with this problem, I ask them to shoot the target, then again with the second barrel (or the biggest bit remaining) The foot position and stance then usually fall into place, as it becomes obvious if you have run out of room to swing kermit
  12. No CPSA ground will you use them, 28gr. 6 shot is maximum permissable, bigger shot goes further and void the safety zone and insurance requirements. 32gr are also much noisier. For everyones sake do not use them on clays kermit
  13. road runner An idea of what the traps were, make and model, voltage, colour would help. Just as a note to others who read this, get a tin of spray paint, and give every trap you have a splash somewhere to make them distinctive, and recognisable, you don't have to go mad. kermit
  14. Yes, only has to find a wedge of cash, equivalent will cost £1400 with the VAT and carriage kermit
  15. You can use an Albright relay as used in the Promatic Super sporter, don't have the part number to hand but you can get them directly from Albright online, or any relay other rated at 60 amps or better, lots in the forklift trade No difference in this case between a solenoid or relay If you get stuck contact me and will find the numbers out for you kermit
  16. Have known quite a few skeet boys who shoot 'threads' without any ill effects I would do it kermit

  18. Have always thought that an OPEN gun draped over your arm, is safer than a CLOSED gun in a slip, have even seen people put cartridges in the gun instead of snap caps, My favourite is when people come out of the stand (with an empty gun), close it then spend 2 minutes talking, and looking for the slip while pointing the closed gun at all and sundry. kermit
  19. Not for me to say it's good, I'm biased kermit
  20. Yes still open, OK but nothing special, not the most inspiring piece of ground kermit
