  1. While the pup is young and insecure take him to an open space and stand still for a couple of minutes - then walk away, don't make any attempt to call or communicate with the pup - as you walk away the pup should follow you - if he does then he has accepted you as Alpha and will follow you without question.

    Arron - re your previous comment - " Butt Claws, Rear Mono Pods, Cheek Raisers and Bigger Plenums" - are you reading the Anne Summers Christmas leaflet?
  3. Download and use Adblock free edition - simples.
  4. Take it back to the dealer and wear a really angry face.
  5. Surely you need to stop him chewing his bed in the first place? Not a criticism but seems a bit like putting the cart before the horse?

    Accuracy and trigger are spot on Figgy but they are on the AA S410 - might be 25 years of precision engineering that makes me a tad critical when I see cost cutting on a gun costing so much but it shouldn't even be possible for a trigger component to just "fall out" whenever it fancies it - the MK2 are built the same and the impact trigger unit looks remarkably similar.
  7. Now that's the best way to shoot such a creature.

    Hand on heart - don't be bamboozled into thinking that FX are the Rolls Royce of the Airgun world - once you get over £750 ish most Rifles performance are similar - the build quality on my Wildcat is not, in my opinion, up to that of my S410 - engineering wise at least, the use of push fit pins that can fall out whenever they like is unacceptable on guns at this price - 3 months of FX ownership = trigger failure, indexing issues and Reg jam + £100 service/tinker - AA S410 10 years of ownership = indexing post replacement (messed up by previous owner) £13 not one other issue, failure or hiccup. If you buy an FX make sure your dealer has an impeccable reputation for warranty work and is nearby - not trying to put you off but a little caution might save you considerable hassle.
  9. Pet's at home "back to naturals" wet food gets a good rating for the money and is the only food my daughters dog can eat without being ill - Forthglade Puppy is also pretty good for the price but can be hard to source.
  10. Spider fighting eh? On the Web?
  11. Not sure if this is allowed on this forum, if not then apologies to the Mods, but does anyone have any comments about the behaviour of Peter Carr in the above youtube channels "Burton Agnes" shoot - mainly at 3:13 where he surely tries to scare a low bird to climb before shooting the hapless creature - if it was (and it obviously is) a low bird then how much height could it have possibly gained in the second it took to shoulder the gun? Not long since the Airgunning part of the show saw us watching a Collard Dove being shot whilst still being a protected species following the GL fiasco - this latest offering is damaging to shooting as a whole and , when the whole world seems to be watching us and our sport is irresponsible and unsporting to say the least.
  12. OK - tin hat on...this is how I do it.I carry a thin whippy stick and when my dog pulls I make it "whip" through the Air then slow it right down and tap him on the nose with it - not hard but he needs to react to it. After a couple of days if he still pulls then I can usually stop him by just whipping the stick thru the air in front of him to bring him back to heel. After he has gotten used to this I simply make a swishing sound orally if he forgets. I always use the command "heel" at every stage and it doesn't take long before that's all you need.Only problem I can see is that, if your back is giving you problems, then exercising him sufficiently maybe adding to your woes.
  13. Never seen so many Mushrooms/Toadstools as this year - local woods are full of them.
  14. Actually , Vince, my coat is the same colour as yours.
  15. AFAIk - even if the driver knew nothing about the affair, he still carries the can?
  16. A change in the law will make no difference whatsoever to travellers - it's illegal to drive a vehicle without tax,insurance etc but that never stops them - I'm guessing that parking 20 + caravans on a council grass verge is already illegal yet how many get prosecuted? - you stay 5 minutes over your ticket time in a council car park and you'll be getting a letter through your door pretty smartish.BTW oowee - just asked Google and AT is a criminal offence.
  17. Not signing it - if you are trespassing and you are asked to leave then you must do so - refusal is aggravated trespass isn't it? which is already illegal?
  18. Not sure what all the fuss is about henry d - in several Laybys near me that's a popular pastime.
  19. Replace them - cheap as chips.
  20. If your Boots are faulty then you do not have to pay to return them - keep a receipt for the postage costs and inform them that you will be expecting them to pay - you should really have agreed this with them before returning them as they may demand that you use a particular courier.
  21. If you had the key close to your body while you were shooting your body heat will have warmed it up and increased the voltage - if your fob fails it's always worth trying to blow hot air on it for a couple of minutes or wrapping it in a bit of plastic and put the fob end into your mouth.
  22. Tell them that a TV crew is expected soon - then watch them race to the paddock. You should not feel as if you are over reacting, you are concerned for the Animal and both you and the Horse deserve to be treated with respect.
  23. Did you say that you have 2 Beretta's at the moment? - they handle/feel completely different to Browning/Miroku and ,quite often, if you get on with one - the other will feel totally alien to you.
  24. Black and Decker Steam Stripper - about £30 - you would not believe how effective these things are,if you were closer I would lend you mine but see if any of your mates has one you can borrow.15 seconds and the paper will fall off.
