Name the waste of oxygen - anyone kick's my Dog is likely to find themselves in a whole world of pain. A tug on a dogs ear and a growl from the trainer should be all that is needed.

Canada Goose breast sweet & sour stir fry
bruno22rf replied to steve_b_wales's topic in Food and Drink
100g ketchup + 100g sugar + 100ml white wine vinegar (Aldi do a cheap one) and 175ml water - whisk in a pan and heat until the the ingredients are mixed (about a minute) then add about a tablespoon of cornflower + or - depending on how thick you want the sauce - heat gently for about another minute and jobs done - I add pineapple chunks and some really thinly sliced carrots (raw) just to add that little extra.If you find it too sweet or too sour you simply alter the vinegar or sugar quantities next time. -
If your permission depends on you starving chicks to death then maybe you should consider finding another piece of land. You can shoot the brancher's soon - much more humane but you seem unsure as to wether we are discussing Rooks or Crows? I will blow a crows nest from a tree without thinking twice.

Sweet and Sour sauce is soooo easy to make - White Wine Vinegar/Ketchup and Sugar is all you really need with a little Cornflour for thickening - couple of Pineapple chunks if you like - better than shop bought. -
Moving parts in a mount has no bearing on my point Mice - the point is that they can match Sports Match in product quality then ship the item round the world for a total price practically the same as just the postage price of a UK bought item. If they can make cars then they can, sure as heck, make Airguns it's simply a case of economics - when the time is right, and if the market is worth the investment, they will start making world class Airguns. Artemis P-15 - titanium cylinder and regulated for just over £300 (first imports) worth mentioning - few niggles but they will be sorted as the model ages - lets see the likes of Daystate compete with that.

"Will we ever see Chinese guns dominate the UK market - not a hope in Hell" mmmmmm - If I told you 10 years ago that our car market would be flooded with carp Korean cars you wouldn't have believed me - likewise the Early Japanese motorcycles were something to point and laugh at 30 years ago. The Chinese have the Engineering ability and financial might to take the Lions share of the market if, or when, they decide to.They can buy parts from outside suppliers in massive quantities thus cheaper but they will persevere in manufacturing parts themselves until they get it right - labour is cheaper than we could ever dream of so the West could not compete. When you consider that you can buy, say, a pair of Shorts, from a Chinese company and have them posted half way around the world (often faster than if you buy in the UK) for about a third of the price of a UK supplier, you have to admire their retail might.P.S. bought a one piece mount from the bay of plenty about 6 months ago - £7 inc shipping from China and it's as good as any I have ever bought here.

Not sure if I would be happy shooting Rooks over decoys - most will have young in the nest?

The one bottom left doesn't look well?

My daughter just got her first insurance - after comparing the Meerkat we found a quote of £1200 fully comp so decided to note the quote number and start the policy a few days later after she got paid - price had risen to £1500 when she tried to take out the policy - according to the salesman the quote you get is for that day only and can rise or fall every day???

Tin Hat on....... get rid m8 - px it for a used quality rifle and put a £150 or so into a gun designed to do the job - keep the scope and shop around for a used HW80, 95 or even a 77 if you are fit enough. Original 45, Annie 335 etc - there's plenty to choose from if you wait and have cash - IMHO Gammy should be used for training / plinking .
-
Both as good as each other - but the TX is just that bit more gooder - been just about the best under lever spring gun you can buy from the day it was released, pure class.
-
Had one of these for 15+ years - superb mower - we have a running bet with our neighbour that every year, after being dumped in a draughty shed all through winter, that the mower will start first pull - never lost so far.
-
Exactly the same as al4x - we are now with Octopus - cannot fault them so far and certainly the cheapest + we get £50 for everybody that we recommend - the new customer also gets £50, so far we have "earned" £150 which, along with our Solar Panels means that our energy bills this year are tiny.

Only my opinion, of course, but CCI would be better off spending money on improving the accuracy of their current range of .22lr rounds rather than on pretty pointless gimmicks.
-
Historic pair of fine weapons I believe Mick - quick research has revealed that these guns belonged to no other than Naidni Foop the Potpourri baron of southern India. Famous for his flamboyant behaviour it was this very man that coined the phrase "shoot them between the eyes" after years of hunting man eating Tigers. Mr Foop was mauled to death in 1924 by 2 one eyed Tigers walking arm in arm.

My son also uses the train from Uni in Stoke back to MK - £7 if you book in advance - costs me more in petrol just picking him up from the station - cannot fault the service.
-
Whoops missed the sock bit - then OF beat me to the suggestion of a cartridge belt.
-
50 ft/lb getting near rimfire territory? You would struggle to find a standard .22lr round that leaves the barrel at less than 100 ft/lb's?
-
Another vote for demonwolf444 - wood like that deserves to be treated by someone who knows what they're doing - post it to James then get a gun sock.
-
When you close it gently - does the top lever swing into the correct position - i'm guessing not quite? Not sure if this model has the small pin that sits proud of the breach face (near the top lever) - if so push it in with a small rod and squirt WD40 down the hole - just a little.
-
Dont know for sure but I would place my bet on M6 x 1. If not then M6 x .75.

Spanish Boxlock non ejector 20 gauge

Picked this up last Saturday (23rd) and it's a real beaut - dates to 1957 but looks like a virtually new gun apart from the woodwork looking a little "dated" - not sure what Mick had been drinking when he described it as average condition. Only trust one chap to sort the woodwork, James aka "the woodworking gunsmith" will be breathing his magic on her so she is already en route to North Yorkshire where he will bring the wood to life (check out his website - no I don't work for him, he is simply superb at what he does) - already eager to get her back and on the pigeons. -
Dont think he could buy the spray stuff to put around the bitches rear end because he isn't 100% sure who the bitch that complained is. Ignore it - the complainant has to get video evidence of your actual dog barking for an unreasonable amount of time on several different occasions before the wheels of the council begin to slowly grind - the RSPCA have no rights whatsoever to enter your property as far as I know so you can ignore them as well.

No i don't Davyo - but its different if you are on a Moped than if you are in a Truck isn't it? Why do they not mention that? My "offences" were almost 3 years apart - first was coming into our village where they were gong to build a new School - the 30 sign was put up 2 years before building work even started - it's about 500 yards from the start of the village in the middle of nowhere. Second was entering/leaving a roundabout on a day when Silverstone was hosting an F1 race - traffic was fast and furious so you had to be quick on the gas as soon as a space appeared - as I came off the roundabout I was still doing over 30 despite taking my foot off the pedal but once nearly 3 tons of car are moving they don't lose speed very quickly. That would have been my defence in court but the courses are always a laugh - courts are far more serious.
-
Done the course twice - if you learn anything from the course then you shouldn't really be on the road - it's common sense but the braking distances are way out in regard to modern cars. Both my crimes were for 34 in a 30 - my speedo needle covers that amount - ultimately its still a money spinner - pretty sure the police get a claw back of the monies paid.
