Thanks Rich Tony, will PM you today sir

I usually end up walking out of there with a fair few bottles and a significantly lighter wallet!

Looking for some bramble whiskey; either homemade or a good recommendation for a shop bought variety. Need it in the next week if at all possible..... Nick

Fantastic day, great squad, superb course and sterling effort for Orchid by everyone; top job!

I thought that it was a fair shoot and on a dryer day would have been thoroughly enjoyable. Forgetting my waterproof trousers on Sunday however made it a less pleasant experience! The 96 was stunning in any conditions, let alone those!

Not as yet; there might be some alternatives though

Hope that you get this sorted to your satisfaction. You certainly seem too have been very patient in discussing this matter with the stockist.

The reason that I posted a picture of a factory choke was to illustrate that it is not just aftermarket chokes that are affected in a similar way to the OP's situation. The aim was to educate users on the correct protocols when using ANY choke in their guns. There was and is no intention to highlight any flaws or weaknesses in any other products; if you have assumed that was the case then you are wrong in this instance. A lot of what you have posted is, in my opinion, very noteworthy and educational and I don't want to detract from those facts as they will benefit many readers on here.

Mark Winser would be a good choice too. PM me if you want his contact details.

The picture was of a standard factory fitted choke that, according to its owner, split on the first day of use. I have no reason to doubt him but if you think that he neglected or abused it in that time frame then you are of course entitled to that opinion.

Hi, By your forum name alone I have no idea of the history of your situation, but you are very welcome to contact me via mullerchokes@hotmail.co.uk and if I can assist further I gladly will. Kindest regards, Nick

Hi James, Just seen and replied to your follow up email; apologies for the delay a family Sunday dinner got in the way of responding to emails. I'm confident that I will be able to trace your purchase so am more than happy to utilise that as your proof of purchase. Damaged chokes can, and do, unfortunately occur for a number of different reasons regardless of the brand of choke: To better educate shooters we have created the following FAQ highlighting several important points to remember regardless of brand of choke used: http://mullerchokes.eu/about/

Good write up Phil; glad that it was a worthwhile trip

Just paid up and booked in

Thanks Ian

Any news on registered comps there this year Ian?

Hopeful that I can make it this year

You're welcome to anytime

Hi Mark, Thanks for the post. The sale has nothing to do with recoil at all as this is one soft shooting O/U. The only reason I'm selling the 682 Gold E is because I shoot my new MK38 much better. The 682 won't get a look in at this rate and it seems a shame to keep refined to the cabinet if someone else would enjoy owning and using it. LOP is 375mm. You're very welcome to arrange to meet up to have a look at it and shoot of it. Nick

Price updated on Gun Watch to £1975

I have a 1/2 (green band) that I'd sell. £25 delivered. PM for details

I'm afraid I cannot take any credit for the finishing on my 682 Gold E; Tim Greenwood is the man to contact: http://www.greenwoodgunsmiths.co.uk/ FYI, the gun is still available and I'm open to sensible offers

What a brilliant read and we'll done to all concerned; hugely positive for shooting

Thank you all for the kind comments; yes this is a well reasoned decision; the Cuban Broom has to move on I'm open to sensible offers; would even consider a part ex for a good semi-auto plus cash...

Thanks Hammy that's very kind of you to say so 😊
