  1. Hello All

     

    I've been racking my brains :hmm: for some time now, (well not that long). What i want is a set up for my quad where one can rid and lamp and one can shoot :yes:

    I did see something a while ago in the shooting times i think. some bloke had made a platform on its own wheels, but i cannot find anything like it on the internet.

     

    Any seen anything like this?

     

    Thanks Allan...

    tbh, the safest way is to have the second person on the back, with the rifle over the drivers shoulder. The idea of a rifle in a trailer behind isn't good. Even if you could fabricate some sort of cage that bolts onto the back rack, that the shooter stands in, the risk of tipping over would be significant.

  2. I can't believe some folk could eat that amount in one go. I used to eat quite large amounts when younger but no where near that quantity.

     

    Just out of curiosity how big are the ones that reckon they could eat all that. Me, I'm now just over 6' and weigh app 12.5 stone. Used to be 6'1" and 11 stone. I reckon that's quite light compared to some, anyone going to divulge their dimensions? :hmm:

    6' 5", 12 1/2 st, and yes I would eat it :yes:

  3. I cant knock McKerrs,shot shot,Stevens a good lad to deal with, hes honest and wont put you to far wrong :blink:

    yup, that's the guy we dealt with, knocked well over a hundred quid off the total bill before we could even ask :hmm:

  4. "It comes after the introduction of two harrier hawks in the area to clear gulls from the town’s Grand Hotel"

     

    :lol: :lol: :hmm::P:lol: :blink:

     

    I think they probably mean Harris Hawks :o

    dunno, seems like a good use of the RAF to me :lol:

  5. Went to McKerr's in lurgan earlier with my dad, turned out to be an expensive afternoon, ended up buying 2 shotguns and a cabinet ;)

     

    A webley and scott 912 30", practically new for £600. And some old lanber to get my dads cert through, for 60 quid I couldn't fault it

     

    now to get the certificates off, and wait a long, long time :good:

  6. Where I live you might use a jetwash to clean of the under side, but I would leave as much on the body work as I can. I am fed up with being mistaken for a Chelsea tractor. At least when its filthy everyone knows that it sees more off road than the grass verge at the school gate and the occasional puddle. Not that this is a view I can persuade my wife to share.

    I see the dirt as a protective layer for the paintwork :good:

  7. hes hardly a fake, he knows his stuff and could proberly survive most places if needed. The producers are hardly going to actually make him survive for his life just for a tv show

    same thing goes for Ray Mears, but he doesn't come across as a complete cock head in the process

  8. A local 4x4 club used to use a hilux as the recovery truck for all others that got stuck :good: ,only had an old hilux and was incredible with hubs locked have been across wet ploughed field and pulled a forklift truck out of mud,it was a 2 litre petrol with huge tyres.top motor :good:

    I assume you mean one of these

  9. don't attack me :good: but i thought the 1.8 petrol engines are prone to head gasket failure?

    and they fall to bits :good:

    just tighten it all every now and then with the end of a spoon :good:

     

     

    my mum had a 1.9d, and I loved it. Say what you like about the build quality, it was a far nicer place to be than the cheap plasticy interior of the x-trail that replaced it

     

     

    not sure about petrol though, mightn't be powerful enough :good:

  10. woodcock i might be up at it, still waiting to see if anyone else is going, if i do go ill be easy to spot - either propping up the bar or drooling over a gun thats all tactical looking :good: :good:

    speaking of which, I was thinking of heading up :good:

  11. :yp: :D:good: you know me too well, i actually did leave the bit out about walking back into the pub to make sure i wasnt hearing things, but the tv was up too loud for anyone to hear anything :good: :good:

     

    now at home, and having realised ive ran out of vodka, am now drinking cider and lime, which is surprisingly nice :yes:

    easy mate, vodka and cider, not good, not good :good:

  12. excuse? :good:

     

    aye, major heightened security up here, fairly large road block on the way to lurgan last week (talk nicely to the man with the gun)

     

    and something up at stoneyford reservoir earlier, unmarked cars, civvie clothing, we had stopped to take a photo, and quickly went the other way

  13. what happens when you take two of the rounds out?? :lol:

     

    oh aye, and did you find that empty eley cart on a beach near markethill?? :P:lol: :lol: :P

    1. The last one falls out, not ideal I know

     

    2. That one was found around home, it's fairly rusty (although some of the ones I saw on "markethill beach" were plenty rusted as well! :thumbs: )
