York guns have a couple of options listed on the bottom of there cartridge list.
-
The first single barrel 12 bore that i used as a lad was by the Midland gun company called a "knockabout gun" 34" barrel hammer gun. I don't know about the one you're looking at but genearlly they are nothing fancy to look at but mechanically sound and built to last.
I picked up a single barrel Baikal 20 bore for my lad when he was progressing for next to nothing. If you're anywhere near Norfolk i'll let you have it for the lad if its any help to see him progress.
-
I've got a single barrel Baikal in pretty good condition if he's interested? Based in Norfolk though so may be cost prohibitive.
-
Just goes to show how quickly gun prices are going up, this will be worth a grand by Saturday at this rate!!
-
My money would be on rats, is there evidence of an entry point to the building, poop or footing around perimeter e.t.c?
-
It may be worth dropping pw member raywt a message as he was looking for a supply, he is based in wickhambrook if that's any use.

Best thing to do with a misfire or flat report is point the gun in a safe direction for at least 30 seconds, just to rule out any follow-up ignition of the powder. I personally will remove the cartridge by blocking its ejection with my hand, then quickly take it out and poke it crimp end first into the mud. Stick your foot on it, press it well in and avoid the temptation to go back and dig it out for any further inspection! The damp will eventually see to it that the powder is defunct thus making it safe in the extremely unlikely event that someone should come along and dig it up at a later date. Yes, this is technically against the philosophy of not leaving any unwanted waste behind but it's better than having your fingers blown off or worse.
Last season on our game shoot, one of the guns climbed back into the trailer after a drive, mentioned how he'd had a misfire and then proceeded to wave the offending cartridge around in front of everyone's faces! Needless to say a few sharp words were spoken!
I've had one or two duds with Eley pigeon but considering the amount I've shot the percentage is tiny. I mostly use Hull Comp-X clay shells if I go to the shooting ground, and have had a few flat reports and some with a pellet bulging out the side so you can't load them safely. those ones I take home and carefully split and empty.
What exactly do you think is going to happen?

The wifes 54 plate vitara has developed an issue with the steering feeling heavy (as if there is resistance when on either lock). The power steering pump & fluid look ok as does the belt. Drive pulley is turning so does anyone know where I go from here?

May have a look. Tend to avoid the magazine tis always full of gloom and doom
And the same old recycled themes & articles.

It may be better to tell us what your vehicle is and others may be able to offer advice based on personal experience of said vehicle.
15" rims may not be an option, it will depend on brake disk, caliper etc clearances.
-
Brake disk backplate or shield I think.

There are lots of online calculators such as this one: Will they fit
You should be able to go down to 16", search for AT tyres available and plug the numbers in and see what the difference is.
Hope this helps.

To answer the original question is it possible and or worth while transferring and increasing your existing mortgage to the new property? I know that this is something that Nationwide offer.
Ultimately it is going to come down to how risk averse you are, there are plenty of offers on the market. Go with what suits your personal situation best.

I agree with Davyo, it's overpriced but i'd put it at £1500 if it is truely "vgc" as you have been told, assuming it's not a soft top.

Where you based buddy?

? the new certificate has the date it was issued on
11 minutes ago, Grange1905 said:The only factor being that the police can seize your guns unless a valid in date certificate is produced. Yes, they can check the system on the radio, but I wouldn't rely on that.
Police officers are human and are more likely to check the database and take the explanation from the OP than they are to simply seize guns.
This is also based on the Police having a reason to be talking to the OP in the first place! Or is there a further conspiracy theory that shotgun certs are being issued purposely with invalid dates so that police officers can raid properties and seize guns..
What happened to good old common sense??
-
I personally wouldn't worry based on my past experiences, you clearly are not at fault here!
You have submitted your renewal on time and this has been granted but the paperwork is at fault. I assume you received an accompanying letter with the cert? This is proof that the renewal was granted in itself.
In reality there is nothing you can do to rectify the situation until Monday despite your best endevours.
Crack on with the pigeons and don't worry about it.
-
No worries.
-
Shame you didn't advertise these yesterday as i was down there visiting family. I'll still take them off you if you can wait a fortnight for me to pick them up? Totally understand if you've got someone else interested and want them gone though..

Free shooting on offer to HGV drivers only, expecting big bags hence the need for HGV?
