  1. Kranks have the Geco small rifle showing in stock, £92/1000 They had RWS large rifle primers in about a week ago, sold out in minutes, at only £172/1000 !!!
  2. Had it done a couple of years ago, not great but not too bad. When the male nurse finished he said "You can have a tea or a coffee and a biscuit now" I said "To be honest, after that I was expecting an engagement ring"
  3. Onl y loaded about 100 slug loads a few years ago been sitting unused ever since. £60 inc recorded postage Payment by bank transfer preferred.
  4. Althiough the NRA, BDS and many others offer various courses there is no officially recognised "Reloader Certification" It should it not affect being issued an SCC, reloading is not part of the requirements. As far as shooting on MoD ranges, the RCO has to be satisfied that all ammunition used falls withing the range limits, for home/reloads you may/should be asked to provide proof of your ammunitions load data including velocity and muzzle energy before being allowed to shoot it.
  5. I read the Basc report. Durham's figures are way off. From what I've been told there are 2 girls and a manager in the office, at least one of them only works 2 days a week. There's one full time FEO and another who is retiring. Renewals are listed at 88 days, my club members are reporting times of 6 to 9 months, my own submitted at the end of 2020 took 7 months.
  6. Sent my daughters off for renewal + change of name, went 1st class recorded on the 20th arrived the next day. Post Office tried to get me to "upgrade" to Special Delivery as apparently 1st class recorded could get lost!!
  7. Assuming you're flying in then you have a £390 allowance for goods
  8. Nice to see how they've biased the poll by refering to sporting firearms as "weapons" Only soldiers, the police and criminals use them as weapons. That should help the general public give the answers they want to hear 😞
  9. Well done Mel Getting special needs or disabled young people and adults involved with sporting or any other type of social gatherings can be very benificial to their development. My youngest son (now 30) has Autism, his mum walked out just after he was diagnosed 16 years ago. His social life then was almost non-existent. I returned to shooting in 2006 and took him along, he's been a member of three clubs now for 15 years. While we're at the range or at the indoor club he interacts and speaks to everyone there, I think he might know more of the members than I do!. Without that social interaction over the years I'm sure he wouldn't be at the place (developmentaly) that he is now.
  10. What size cabinet? their prices seem very high.
  11. I wish that one of the shooting organisations would stand up for once and say that this was not a result of poor or insufficient licensing/guidance. Like the previous Horden shootings here in Durham it was a failure of the licensing department to enforce the current guidance correctly. He should never have had his firearms returned, they were given plenty of evidence of his unsuitability, even his own family told them he was unfit and were ignored.
