definately more important things,one is to find out who's got a gun to grahamch's head making him read these posts

i would guess that David Thompson, Head of sales for Eley has been sacrificed for the sake of BASC

Turner Richards dummy launcher with dummies,not used for 10yrs so i changed o ring but only a cheap lidl o ring,don't know if it will do the job but they are cheap enough,comes with two dummies,£75 posted Barbour Liddesdale game bag,in good condition,a bit dirty inside(if it weren't i might as well give up my gun😁),£60 posted

at the end of the day it's nature,hedgehogs don't do it for fun it's to survive!,man is always trying to blame other things for whatever happens,it's the same with otters and seals eating "our" fish,without man the world would be a perfect place, just my opinion

since when has one company had discussions with what's going on with their competitors???,doesn't make sense to me

Scapegoat(now with a big back pocket)

BASC is trying to help had this email on wednesday Shooting season 2020/21 This time of year is critical for game shoots. The financial outlay of hatching, rearing and buying in chicks and poults is typically offset by deposits paid by Guns booking their shooting for the season ahead. We would encourage people where their circumstances permit to go ahead and make bookings for the 2020/21 game shooting season; given the Prime Minister’s most recent announcements we hope shooting will continue as usual come autumn and winter, but it will only do so if we pull together as a community, keep calm and carry on.

well that's not what i think!,i know these big game shoots produce a vast amount of game that not many want(when dead) otherwise they would get more than 5p-10p a bird,they make their money by what dies(the more that dies the better) not what's eaten,so end up with alot of waste,yes i enjoy shooting but i enjoy it whether i fire a shot or not

it was probably the customers of wiatorse that shot the game in the first place

have a read https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s13280-019-01194-x definition of Chronic: Persistant,constantly recurring.

any one got a spare happy pill

how about this,

shot game is worth less than 10p a bird(that what it says in link below) to the game shoots,so why not give it away and it stay in this country(to less well off or pet food), https://www.shootinguk.co.uk/popular-reads/selling-game-105644

because basc said that one reason to get rid of lead was that the EU wanted lead free game which is supplied by "massive shoots"

you know they are bad for you but worth the risk,exactly the same for game shot with lead

no idea what they taste like but the beak is handy,you should see my cutlery drawer,also handy for BBQs(flippin burgers), don't worry boys,it was shot with steel

i bet game shot with lead are safer to eat than these https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2013/mar/07/are-sausages-bad-for-you-processed-meat

there are 5 all year round at Llanelli WWT https://www.wwt.org.uk/wetland-centres/llanelli/wildlife/latest-sightings/recent-sightings-15th-17th-march/18677

cant see a problem with the ad,people can decide?,how about if food companies display "free range shot game" on their soup?,consumers who normally choose to eat game will know it's probably shot with lead,tesco have sold shot game but i've never seen it in the "reduced price section",

BASC must already have plenty of money to fight the opposition, if you look at the the BASC pie graph it shows that a fair chunk of BASC subs goes into the "fighting fund", if it was up to me i would ban the export of shot game(pheasants,partridge) and the game go into pet food industry or feed the less well off,after all the shoots get peanuts for their game,i would also ban the sale of woodcock and all wildfowl,

what's the percentage which is used for vermin or game shooters??

DavidBASC,could ECHA say lead shot is toxic so can ban straight away or perhaps in 1year,2years,3years or is lead definately safe for at least 5yrs??

NO,it will happen,thanks BASC say what think,it will just be your own opinion,dont let others influence you

you are saying now what the anti lead shot groups were saying 5yrs ago but you were defending lead then

too hard,some dont like/cant do straight yes/no answers
