Hi all,i phoned a golf club today to enquire about the possibility of lamping rabbits,i found it while looking on google earth.Anyway a member of staff,took my details,and said he would pass them on to the secetary (office),and she would phone me back today.She has'nt phoned me back yet,so i would like to know if i should call back today or leave it a day or two,i don't want to come across as to pushy and cock my chances up. WHAT WOULD ANY OF YOU DO ?

Hi everyone,can anyone tell me if the rowan conversion kit for an S400 .22 is any good.I am looking to change to a multi shot pcp,so is a conversion a good thing to do.Or would someone like to do a swap?

Hello everyone good morning.I just put this question in the wrong section (gaining Permission/help and advice) Ooops.Anyway i was going shooting this morning,it's nice and dry but there is a 22mph east south easterly wind blowing,so is there any point going out in strong winds with an airrifle,or am i going to waste my time.After rabbit's etc

Hello everyone,is it worthwhile going hunting with an airrifle in strong wind conditions.Or is it better to wait for the weather to calm down.Any advice welcome,i was going to go this morning but there is a 22mph east south easterly blowing.I know my movements will be disguised by the wind but will rabbits etc venture out if the weather is rough THANKS RICH.

Hello everyone,here's some info i found out today.I have just gained my first shooting permission,to use my airrifle.I'ts on a 70 acre farm,the farmer is a lovely bloke in his seventies,he invited me to his farm yesterday to have a look around,i took some shooting forms with me,but he would not fill it in. (QUOTE) i don't need those bloody things if anyone stops you send them to me (unquote),i said it would be better for both of us.NO NO NO , the reply.So today i phoned the firearms section of the police,i explained what has gone on,and want to check that i am within the law.The answer,yes because i am not using a section 1 firearm,and have the landowners VERBAL consent everything is okay.I'm new to all this,i did not feel comfortable,for myself or the farmer,and other landowners in the area might think the farmer was being taken advantage of,because of his age.Glad i checked things out HAPPY DAYS.

hello everyone i am trying without much success to get some shooting permission for rabbits and other vermin in the south wales area.For myself and my brother-inlaw but for me mainly because he,s in the army so only home now and then.Day or night no problem thanks.
