thank you for the replies, will keep my eye out and gather some funds, just can not see me spending £700 on a gun at the moment without selling one of mine which is not the plan, i think i may save £20 a week or something and get a beretta, i am not fussed about using a heavy gun, just seemed to hit more with the beretta i had a few shots with, i think i had 7 shots and took down 5 pigeons and hit 1, so to be honest better than i shoot with my other gun,

yes, i do not have this sort of money to spend on a gun at the moment, i will aim to get one of these, i think it will be the lightweight, not ultra lightweight, but i was just wondering of there were any other cheaper over and unders available, maybe older one's, i am not fussed about ejectors or double triggers,

The gun i was shooting with was a beretta 687 but he said it was a lightweight model, are all 687's leight weight or are some specifically lightweights?

Hello, got the chance to use a beretta 687 lightweight on pigeons, i could not believe how light and easy to swing it was, does anyone know of any other over and unders that are likely to be as light and well balanced, only asking as the beretta's are a tad too expensive for me at the moment, thanks

hello, i have just bought a winchester 1400 semi auto, it only came with one choke which is a full choke, Where can i get a 1/4 choke for pigeon shooting or does anyone have any unused chokes? thanks, Charlie

I am with you, i sit down in a hide but seem to hit more from standing up, so i have one of those camo nets which are like mosquito so you can see through it them stand up and shoot, that is what suits me anyway

Hello, i am trying to sell my mk2 golf so i can buy a defender from my frined, however the defender is also up for sale. Firstly my mk2 golf, i have just spent lots of money and many hours restoring it to a good standard to get her back on the road. It is a mk2 1.3 A reg which makes it one of the first ever made. recent work includes - New cam belt, steering rack, cv joints, wish bones and many more receipts which can be shown, The car has just had an MOT so will come with 11 months mot and 5 months tax, comes with a black board bonnet and lots of chalk which is great fun but also includes origional bonnet, it also has 4 bbs RA 15" allys all with good tyres, one is brand new, It is a very origional and very early mk2 golf being an A reg which is still on the road. The car does not have any structural rust so will serve its new owner many more years of service. £650 And for the defender It is a land rover defender 90 which has a proper defender 200tdi engine (which is the most sort after). This engine has only covered 70,000 miles The rest of the car is also in great condition, it has had a new rear cross member, brakes overhall (including hand break), new side steps, new power steering pump, 4 brand new chunky tyres, new front spot lights, both axles are disc breaks which are much better, engine and gearbox are brilliant, has 2 front seats and a cubby box, rear bench seats and does not need seat belts in rear due to age, checker plated bonnet and wing tops and a brand new battery. £3500 I am advertising this for a friend and he if upset about selling it but has no choice, i will be buying this if i can sell the golf but he cant wait,

I may have a blue defender 90 coming up for sale, it is in brilliant condition, had lots of work done in the last year, there is a photo in this section where people post 4x4 pictures, very tidy car, Pm me for price and if your interested, thanks

suzuki jimny, economical, very good car, cheap to run, get an 03 for £3000 if you search hard

as they are not driving on the road (so do not need insurance) could you not get a trailer and a small car and tow it to the venue's and events they will be driving at? thanks

yes, sorry about the error, before you buy also get a quote on admiral or other insurance company's to get an idea of the price

if i were you i would go to manhiem car auction in frating (near colchester) on a thursday evening, you will get a nice car there and they are very cheap to buy, i have bought a couple for friends there, it is will be extra cheap if you do not mind a small dent or scratch, and if you want a cheap car to insure get a corsa, they are cheaper than saxo's and pug's, also get insurance with admiral, i got mine and by adding my parents as named drivers my quote was reduced by £300!!!, hope this helps

that is crazy, shows how much they rip off the insurance company's, i got my windscreen for £10 from a chap breaking the same car and luckily it was the rubber seal and no bonding glue was required

thanks for all the help, i did it today and used smooth electrical wire to aviod damaging the rubber, it is not a bad job, thanks again

as above, check the rear wheel arches and mainly the body which is hidden under carpets, etc the chassis do not usually rust at all, i had a spring break as the binding fell apart, it was d reg and very rough though, go for it, good cars, the engines are awsome

ok that sounds like a bit off a job, i want to give it a go myself because the insurance excess is £100 so if the windscreen gets broken autoglass will be back with a new one, How do you take the olf windscreen out without smashing it?
