On hold for Stimo22

Get a piccy of his other half - if she's not a munter then I'm sure someone will be along to share her birthday with her

8 Flexicoy pigeon decoys in pretty good nick + 3 "tired" crow and 2 "tired" magpie decoys free to anyone who wants them - crows are usable but starting to fade - Milton Keynes area.

Damascus barrels were expensive and very labour intensive to produce - they also required considerable skill to manufacture. The introduction of better quality steel and the mechanics to form it were the downfall of Damascus (pattern welded) tubes. Depending on the quality, what you should have is a thing of beauty that deserves constant care - guns wearing such tubes are still relatively easy to find but when they're gone they're gone for good.

All's well now that he has done the decent thing and apologised - no harm done eh? just because he "forgot" to check his facts. Maybe a post on FBook suggesting that he has been arrested for having indecent pictures of children on his Hard Drive ? Followed much late with a simple apology - must have been an innocent mistake.

Bought a new Beretta and sent it back within days because the quality was absolute pants - was sent a 525 as a replacement and there is no comparison. That said you MUST MUST MUST try both guns before you buy either because they handle and shoot worlds apart.

It's not uncommon for one leg/foot to be slightly bigger. By allowing you to try them on in the shop you have lost the argument that they are not comfortable - you would have had more protection if you had left the shop and then bought them over the phone and got them posted. Post them to me and for a negligible sum I will give them a dam good yomping over the next couple of years and then return them to you looking like I've been taking penalties with a Dung ball - I wouldn't do this for just anybody but as it's you.....just this once.

So the nearside and the offside of your car changes depending on which end of the car you are looking at? Ask a Gunsmith to point to the right hand barrel for you

Last comment....the RIGHT hand barrel is the RIGHT hand barrel no matter which way you look at the gun .

The right hand tube in the pic is stamped 18.4, you then say in a later post that the right hand barrel measures .736 which is 18.7 is it not? - unless you got your measurements the wrong way round in your post? Just checked your post - you HAVE got the measurements mixed up so all is well.

No Sir....still shining away in the depths of my cabinet.

If she was proofed at 18.4 (most likely when the chamber was lengthened) then .736 is 18.7 - not in proof in MY opinion .

Ask the seller for a quote....Mick can most likely get it done at a very good price.(or buy it and chop 1-2" off the barrels but I didn't suggest that )

Had one of these for years - get the chokes opened out and they are so sweet to use that they shame guns 10 times the price - you will NEVER wear one out.

panoma1 - I have been dying to ask the same question but simply could not think of a way without insulting the seller.

Interested in gun only - pm me a price if you are willing to split-will need posting (about £15).

Would not mind 3 roses as well....what sort of money?

My pigeon gun of late is at least 118 years old .

Pretty sure that you have .25mm before she goes out of proof, so 18.65 max before reproofing on the right tube. Looks like a Webley action to me.

We bought an entire kitchen from Howdens a couple of years ago but they only had a brochure to choose from, we wanted a natural Oak type finish with knots and all as in a farmhouse style. When it finally arrived it was NOTHING like the picture in the brochure - different colour and no knots or lines as per real wood (even though it was real Oak veneer) - the salesman would not hear of it and said that we had got exactly what we ordered despite us still having the brochure. Not willing to be conned I started asking everybody in the showroom if they agreed with me or the shop and not one said the units were even similar to the brochure - after asking every person that walked in over the next 3/4 of an hour the salesman finally gave in and gave us a full refund. Would never even consider using them again.

Just waiting now for the next Chris Packham classic - "British Hunts caught importing frozen Foxes"

Seem to recall this was an ASA brand that became Investarm - look on the investarm website and you should find a parts diagram - pretty sure its a stock bolt on these though - remove the butt plate and all will be revealed.

Advertise it as suitable for an Airgun ??

OMG - never thought of shooting as a major concern where plover numbers are concerned - most likely the same people who are shooting all the Hedgehogs then Packham? I really wish that some sexually self sufficient celebs shut up unless they have something (anything?) intelligent to say.
