Hey Stuartp, that looks bloody excellent, its hard to believe its the same wood. Did you use anything special to bring out the woodgrain. It makes you wonder why they varnish guns when they can look so good oiled. I wonder how much can be made doing this for a living? cheers Mark

A couple of stocks that might be of interest on eBay at the moment to you Browning sufferers and one for a Beretta 686.

Happy to travel between Newark and Wetherby for rabbit shooting, and happy to join existing shooters, Any offers considered, cheers Mark

thanks, this is all really helpful, and I am slowly building up courage to have a go myself, although i think i'll wait a bit longer to see if there are any more useful postings, I am sure there will be, so keep them coming, regards Mark

these are nice guns, i bought my wife a 20g one last year and its great, a non ejector o/u, but great to shoot, well made and lovely action (and the guns not bad either :thumbs: :thumbs: )

Mel. you have PM, cheers Mark

SOLD, thanks

I have the following book, which will be going on eBay next week, but pigeon watch members can have first crack at it. It is named Ecology and Management of Gamebirds, is over 200 pages long and is in excellent condition. Cover pic below; £6 posted, or you can chance your luck on eBay (I'll be listing it on Monday)

pics then please, lucky pie man

ok guys so all i need now id the names and numbers of folk that can do it, don't mind posting off to get the right job/price, cheers Mark

AND MY DRAGONS BETTER THAN YOUR DRAGON, hee hee

Yep, thats what I was thinking, try him on a different food, he's probably food high and just too much energy to burn. I have mine on james wellbeloved and she's pretty active but not overly so. The dog is still young remember and will probably calm down.. Switch the food, and feed just once or twice a day.

Good pie lady, but those barrells are LONG, Size obviously matters in the pie family. lucky b*@~ard, what a gun!!!!

HI, if you don't want anythying posh then I'd have a look at the investarm, but as i say, its not posh, but cheap and cheerful. (you'll getone for £200) I'd hold out for a 20 bore browning or beretta, but you'll struggle to get one for less than £600. The lanbers are also quite nice, but thin on the ground, I bought my wife a denton and kennel 20g o/u non ejectorand its good too, and of course if you were prepared to travel then you open up a larger market, best wishes mark

Hi, no, I have a 12 bore Beretta 686 e sporting which I use for clays and just fancied trying a beavertail fore-end, but I also have a 20 bore Beretta 686s field gun, and as you can imagine over the years what with rain and blood from pigeon shooting the blueing on barrells has worn. It stills looks ok, but i was thinking of bringing it back to new condition during the winter months, so not a rebuild as such, just a bit of TLC, merry christmas, mark

Has anyone tried the laser simulators for clay pigeon shooting that I have seen advertised in sporting gun mag? I know that the best practice is to get out there and shoot some clays,but just wondered if anyone had tried this at home ( my wife complains of the noise and holes in walls when i use real shells :( ) cheers Marl

:( :( :*)

Thats a bargain, wish i had more room in my cabinet, Whats the pie lady bought you then??

cheers dazza, PM

All depends whether you want a O/U or a Semi Auto, the one above is a franchi semi auto

Hi Guys, I am wanting a thin leather, plastic, wooden or rubber butt plate for a 20g Beretta 686 field. Anyone got one going spare?? cheers Mark

HI All, following my post on here I have been unindated with emails and my AYA is now sold, sorry chaps, mark

he hey, that's why I liked it, I reckon he's thinking about his next gun!!!

If you want a AYA side by side I have a 1961 AYA Matador (very similar to yeoman) cheap as chips and great to use. Double trigger, auto safety, nice blueing, no pitting, oiled stock finish.

any one know how much to professionally re blue beretta 20g o/u barrels? and who does it, I'm in yorkshire. cheers mark
