  1. Well known fact-cats attract more rats than they kill.If i knew that i was going to fall down dead at some point i would make sure i was standing next to one of the little *****.

    user names

    I think that a well thought up name is an asset and says something about the person-i also think that (sometimes) a persons user name gives you a clue as to the type of person behind it-peopole who use simple abbreviations of their names are likely to be no-frills down to earth "get on with it" types whereas those with clever names are those who spend too much time on the internet and not enough out shooting-people who are "newbies" and use stupid names like "pigeon slayer" etc are simply sexually self sufficient-and easy to spot.
  3. They,re not costing anything while they sit there-if you sell you will lose money and most likely line some greedy dealers pocket when you buy another.Every time you see them or pick them up they should remind you of better times-put a price on that?
  4. I would,nt dream of ringing the old bill to tell them i was shooting-its not a legal requiurement but if people keep doing it then one day it may be.I,ve been shooting over more land than i care to recall in the last 35 years and never carried my certificate or had any written permission.If the old bill want to waste their time and resources traipsing around feilds or sending thousands of pounds worth of wirly birds up to find out what i,m doing then good luck to them-they have to balance the books at the end of the year(shame they didnt send one up when my caravan got nicked instead of telling me "we know where it probably is sir-but its an invasion of these peoples human rights to go and search for it")
  5. Here,s more luck for you-avoid any GDI shogun.
  6. For sale on guntrader for £220 new.
  7. Now i,m getting confused!!-simple-find a gun you like-find a dealer thats got one in stock at the best price(guntrader or gunsmart are good )-contact dealer and pay for gun and give them the fax number of your chosen(nearest normally) receiving dealer-this dealer will then contact you when the gun has arrived and charge you for the paperwork involved(about £25).If you can find someone you trust local to the gunshop that you buy the gun from-in the case of air rifles they can collect the gun and post it to you-could save you a tidy sum.You,ll have to pardon my lack of intellagence,dekers, if i,ve just said the same again-i,m a carrot cruncher.
  8. If the local guy turns out to be right-dont forget to go back to Honda and demand your money back.By the way-change spark plugs on my Shogun-mitsubishi quote was £320-bought them from fleabay for £75 and paid £40 to have them fitted.
  9. Dont think thats correct Dekers-you can buy a gun over the phone without ever seeing it from any RFD as long as its then sent to your local RFD for collection.This applies to airguns as well as firearms/shotties.You are covered by the distance selling law that states that you can return the item for any reason within a certain period of time (normally 7 days)-you will have to pay return costs unless the gun is faulty or not as described.

    Air Tank

    As above-200 Bar 10Ltr diving cylinder in vgc-out of test but will pass no problems-complete with DIN adaptor valve-collection from Milton Keynes area £25 no offers!!!
  11. Bout 10 years back i was out shooting young Rooks (branchers)-as i was packing up i could hear a light aircraft coming towards the wood and .as i,m "into" planes, i lifted my airgun and looked thru the scope to get a closer look.As i found him in the scope he swerved violently to one side and i heard a loud crack-i lowered my gun to see what was happening and saw a glider right above me with a length of its wing hanging off.The glider then flew out of site (i later found out that it made it back to its airfield).The light aircraft however started to increase its engine speed to what sounded like full throttle and climbed as it turned away from me-the curve continued until the plane had done a complete back flip into the ground with a huge thump that i felt thru my feet-it crashed less than a couple of hundred yards from a local cricket match.It took the fire brigade just short of 6 hours to dig the body out.Unreal and unforgetable when it happens right in front of you.
  12. No worries-good luck with the new gun.
  13. I,ve got a Ugartechea sxs 12 double trigger non-ej choked 1/4 & 3/4 you are welcome to borrow for a few months if you want but you would need to pick it up obviously-im in Bucks.
  14. Bin off work since 13th Dec after suffering blood poisoning-doc,s signed me off for 2 more weeks yet!!If it was,nt for the pigeons landing in the trees at the end of the garden and my airgun i would die of boredom.
  15. Why are we even giving them forum space?-theres no such thing as bad publicity and we,re just feeding the beach.
  16. Im guessing that any appliance must have a relevant safety certificate and make sure he gets a full inventory when people move in-most estate agents can do this for you.Insurance is a must and i think that there are advantages/disadvantages to renting furnished/unfurnished.Declaring any income would be a wise move.
  17. Pop your poorly Logun in the post to Red Beck airguns- herein lives Mr.Hogun the designer of your weapon-service should be about £70 and all will be well again.Which Logun is it?
  18. Could be a myriad of reasons-if you look in your yellow pages you will most likely find someone local who can run a diagnostic check for much less than your dealer-most garages have computers and internet access these days and can sort these things out and save you a fortune.
  19. There should be a drain hole somewhere that channels water to a "tank" near the motor-the heat from the motor evaporates the tiny amount produced.You might also check that the unit is sitting level-this sometimes makes things worse.
  20. I dont know if all docs are the same but mine will not support any applications regarding firearms-he will only answer direct questions in writing from the police and offer acces to my records if asked.
  21. Take it back where you bought it-the fact that it is 18 months old is not a factor unless they can prove beyond doubt that you have misstreated the gun in some way.I would try and agree that if they find the gun full of dirt then you will be liable for the service cost-but the gun would have to be returned to Hull Cartridge for an independant diagnosis.Before you lose faith in the gun you need to remind yourself that this is the ultimate gun from one of the finest makers in history-most likely something simple.
  22. Not sure but i think that if this goes down a legal route and the company find that you have released details of the case on a public forum-their legal team will eat you for breakfast-breach of confidentiality-libel e.t.c. If i were you i would consider removing any reference to the actual company concerned.Im on your side but please be carefull.
  23. Gone pending postage costs.
