  5. that's a good price. is the silver pigeon s a better quality gun than the silver pigeon 1? tried the silver pigeon one and it felt very comfortable
  6. hi i'll be looking for my first shotgun next week. has anyone got the new silver pigeon 1 yet? how does it compare to other guns in the price range? this will be the maximum i could afford at the moment so i can't go over £1200 but would like a new gun rather than second hand if poss

  18. hi i've been using a bsa r10 for the last year and love it but just been to the local gunshop today to look for my first shotgun. i've tried a few but need some advice. how should i choose the right barrel length? i like the look of the berreta silver pigeon,lanbar sporter or browing 525. my budget would be about £1300 from the shop or maybe £800 private.would be used for a mixture of clays and pigeon. thanks for the help
  19. it's unbelievable on anglesey. the last 10 i've shot have all had mixy. they're sitting around the grass verges everywhere around here
  20. i always seem to have problems skinning a rabbit.the skin always seems to be stuck solid and i have to keep cutting it off. if i hold the carcase and try pulling it off i can feel the ribs cracking! what am i doing wrong???
  21. decided not to sell the gun. got the bug now so i'm hanging on to it. thanks for all the questions
  22. hi would only sell the scope seperately if the rifle was sold first,but the scope and mounts cost £131 so about £70. tried to upload photo's of everything but the file sizes are too big and i don't know how to reduce them!
  23. we've been plinking in the garden with a bsa meteor for years but decided to go hunting. bought a new bsa r10 about 4 weeks ago, went lamping with my son and got about 7 rabbits but he doesn't want to go again so the guns for sale. bsa r10 ( .22 ), nikko stirling gold crown 4-12 x 42 ao ir scope, 3 lt buddy bottle and hose, gun holdall and clulite clubman deluxe cb2 torch with red filter and scope mount. total cost was about £950. would like £700 for the lot or may split. only used half a tin of pellets in the gun. every thing here is only about 3 or 4 weeks old!!! the gun was supplied to the dealers i bought it from ( gwynedd firearms ) in late august this year so it's one of the later ones. were on anglesey north wales the following links should show some photos http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv283/t.../rabbits001.jpg http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv283/t.../rabbits011.jpg http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv283/t.../rabbits006.jpg http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv283/t.../rabbits012.jpg http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv283/t.../rabbits009.jpg
