My advice is get rid of the very apparent seam along the back of the head and into the neck. It casts a shadow that is most unnatural.

RELISTED AS BUYER DID NOT CALL AND COLLECT WITHIN REASONABLE TIME. From a near postcode LE9 2AL which is near J21A of the M1 at Leicester Forest East. Sight please of a valid SGC and cash on collection £35.00 = £5.40 per 100 which is less that the Clay and Game rate for 1,000. In boxes as shown and with a red lacquer sealant colour on the flash hole end. Please reply here and PM. These cannot be posted, cash on collection only and no valid SGC shown when purchased = no sale. And yes I am aware that VCR Act 2006 doesn't require such but I am also aware that old .455 Webley cases can be and were reloaded with such primers. So if you want there then no sight of a valid SGC = no sale. COLLECTION AND PAYMENT WITHIN SEVEN DAYS PLEASE.

See PM and PM now replied to. OP is still looking as what I had wasn't suitable.

There are various videos on the internet under Pathe about training RAF Air Gunners with shotguns. And some American ones with the actor who, later would play Penguin in the 1960s Batman television series, Burgess Meredith. And President Ronald Reagan! This below is from the topmost video.

Belgian alas. But it's cheap if you want it at £85 and I'll pay for you to try it over twenty-four birds at Normanton Shooting Ground. If you have it I'll pay for the birds, If you try and not buy you pay for the birds you've shot up to when you decided not to have it. The main benefit though is the stock length which with the pad is some 15 5/8" to centre as I am 6' 4" tall. Take the pad off and replace it with a simple plate and it comes down to about 14 3/4". The BSA guns if you're lucky will be 14 1/2" maximum. The ex RAF guns are nice. Ejectors, 28" barrels, and all with a W prefix serial number and about half choke in each barrel but very low in the stock.

Tis a Belgian. No maker's name. Dates from in between the two World Wars. It was my "wet weather" gun in that if the weather looked wet it was the one I'd go to. Now I have an AYA Yeoman Ejector so it hasn't been used save the first day of last season. That's really a damn and blast £2 under the bid. Southam's is better in some respects as their online sale is live and you can go that extra £5.

Tsk! That's why I hate their Sealed Bid! You never know quite where from £x to £xxx to pitch your punt. Now OTOH if you want a 30" barrel, SBS, long pistol grip stock non-ejector I do have one here in Leicester near J21A of the M1 just above the M1/M69 interchange. It has a long stock to a Silver's recoil pad although that could be taken off and it'd still have a 14 3/4" (or so) all wood stock. Here it is. It can even be tried, Tuesday to Friday at Normanton Gun Club just off the A47 at Thurlaston near Earl Shilton. All jet black action and metalwork. Bores good. Proper Anson rod forend unlike the BSA which is, on some, a Hackett type snap on thing. As with the BSA this is 65mm chambers.

There were at least one in Holt's that you've just missed.

And bayonets? What of bayonets? By the word "bayonet" being omitted from the list of prohibited items are these still then to be allowed to be sent in the post? My concern is that a bayonet may be construed as a sword, combat knife or "survival" knife by over zealous ill informed postal staff. As when infantry stopped being issued with short swords in the following decades the bayonet would evolve into a dual purpose weapon. On the rifle to be used as a bayonet. But off the rifle to be used in peacetime on the soldier's belt, on parade, as a form of short sword replacement. Or off the rifle but now in wartime in his hand as a dual role combat and "survival" knife. Therefore a definition of a bayonet needs to be clear so that bayonets do not, mistakenly be banned as swords (the long Pattern 1907 bayonet) or as combat knives (the American M3 bayonet) or as "survival" knives (the German and other nations') saw backed bayonet.

I've always thought there is great merit in this as crows being wary birds give the pigeons confidence that all is well. What I have never done but would like to try is put white reflective paint on the white collar as, so some say, pigeons see the ultra violet of the "collar" and use that to see where fellow pigeons are on the ground feeding. Like old bri-nylon shirts at a 1970s disco. For those of us old enough to remember such things. https://blyme.co.uk/products/moon-glow-neon-uv-intense-fabric-paint-white-2167?variant=43895253008637&currency=GBP&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwrIixBhBbEiwACEqDJastXaEdbisAEOr8ek3yWKN_83HOKpkJuNyFRwJvPLMt3ouH6H2EnBoCCtEQAvD_BwE

Shyster. Wouldn't trust him an inch. Brexit bonus? A US-UK trade deal? Free trade? Tell that to those in farming who will see their livelihoods seriously affected by the UK-AUS deal, those in the offshore fishing industry. Farage has become a millionaire from Brexit. A very nice little earner. Arthur Daley without the charm. A grifter.

Yes! And in truth deservedly so!

There's a song isn't there? Quite suitable for that long journey I made now thirty years ago plus from (for me) the East Midlands up to Central Scotland to shoot driven grouse. How does it go? Ah. yes... "One thousand red cartridges in my bag and if one red cartridge should get fired today there'd be nine hundred and ninety-nine cartridges in my bag, "Nine hundred and ninety-nine cartridges in my bag and if one red cartridge should get fired today there'd nine hundred and ninety-eight cartridges in my bag, "Nine hundred and ninety-eight cartridges in my bag and if one red cartridge should get fired today there's be nine hundred and ninety-seven cartridges in my bag" Hmm. I think my fellow travelling guns would have stopped the car, opened the door, pushed me out and left me in Trowell Services!

For clays? I'd say maybe 1/4 and 1/4 in both. If you want a denser pattern go from 7.5 size shot to 8 size shot or at least a cartridge hat has harder shot as that in itself will supposedly give a denser pattern. Only by trying it will you know but, for sure, Brand X 7.5 often shoots different enough from Brand Y 7.5 and Brand X 7.5 different again.

One important factor is that roll closure vs crimp closure. I was told long ago by David Bontoft that Hull buckshot was relatively more expensive as given the quantity loaded AND that it was a roll closure it was, he said, "virtually hand loaded". I fear that .410 steel may also be expensive as the quantity loaded will be limited so no scale of economy on setting up costs for the machinery for the production run.

LIneker may be Leicester born and bred (as were Walker's crisps) and indeed my friend of fifty years lived across the road on the same street as Mr LIneker when we were all kids but Lineker's adverts long ago became tired and Walker's long ago became part of the international combine that in France is Lay's crisps. Time for change. But Beckham? Lord save us!

Noted. Thank you.

Yes. It does! I then looked back and checked my email from them. And in fact it was this: December 2022: Thank you for your message. The costs are £65 + VAT for single barrel and £95 + VAT for two barrels.

This what I refer to as a letter being the exact same thing that you then quote below. Be it a letter, statement, bulletin, press release, information update, news announcement of February 2020 is it not the same thing? And is another's observation, drawn from reading that document, which I requote below correct or not?

I'll make it easy. Two questions. Both can be answered with a simple Yes or a simple No. 1) Are lead pellets in avian and other game meat, shot with a shotgun, if ingested, potentially harmful to health? 2) Are lead bullet shards, in avian and other game meat, shot with a rifle, if ingested potentially harmful to health?

I reckon that and the other points you've made just about sums up the logic of the asylum that seems interwoven with BASC's original letter of February 2020 and the ongoing narrative. Yes.

There you go, F J Wiseman, Cannock. Last price I had was some two years ago of one barrel £45 + VAT or two barrels £95 + VAT. https://wisemangunmakers.co.uk/

They do not need to go to proof. Some genuine gunsmiths will, yes, have to send them off if they now don't any longer have the equipment needed to do the job. Just as a a competent car mechanic couldn't do an engine change or engine rebuild only because they now no longer have an engine hoist. All men with gunshops that sell guns but who are not and were never gunsmiths will have to send them off. A gun seller and a gunsmith aren't the same thing. Just as not all motor factors (car parts sellers) are not always car mechanics. That doesn't disqualify either from knowing someone however who can do the work not also does it mean all who do choke boring are full gunsmiths either. That a man doesn't relay ribs does not mean he can't do choke borng. Same as mechanics who do engine work may not be able to do auto electrical work. Or may not do gearbox rebuilds. As with any specialised sort of thing some specialise only in that one skill. All is solvedby simply asking one question... Do you offer choke boring? To which if yes do you do it yourself and in house or do you send the barrels away?

It will likely also result, at a refereed English Sporting, in the referee on you stand politely asking you to bring something else next time. The muzzle blast from a 26" barrel gun is not nice if you are stood close by as a referee must on some stands. The OP is wanting a gun for general sporting clays. If guns with 26" barrels were ideal than everybody would use them and the AA and A Class shooters most evidently so. A CPSA 100 Bird registered shoots is held a mile down the road from me. On Sunday. Every fortnight. I have never seen a AA and A or indeed a B Class shooter use a 26" barrel gun. That must tell the OP something. It may have merit for game shooting. For what he asks which is general sporting clay and occasional Skeet you are encouraging him, as he is a novice, to waste his money. And given that the future is uncertain I'd also not be advising a gun that is likely to be at least bored with forcing cones and barrel boring more adaptable to steel shot cartridges. Not necessarily steel proof but at least with more suitable forcing cones.

The original statement was worded not the same. Was it. Only a few words of difference but enough to skew the context to imply something else. The original: In consideration of wildlife, the environment, and to ensure a market for the healthiest game products, at home and abroad Which is now: The voluntary transition was in response to consideration of wildlife, the environment and to ensure a market for game meat in the UK and overseas And either lead is safe in the flesh of shot meat or it is not. If it is unsafe in pheasant and partridge breast it is also unsafe in venison shoulder. In fact given the fact that it is liely to be tiny fragments rather that whole round pellets more so.
