All this fuss about crash tests... Defenders can't go fast enough to have a 'crash'. It's more of a 'low velocity close proximity incident'

^ as above, have an old 110. Cheap to run, cheap to fix, cheap to insure and good off road. Forget about motorways though.

I agree, starving an animal to death would never be deemed ethical. If the outcome is inevitable then what's the point of dragging it out? A lethal dose of morphine would probably be a pleasant exit.

...and wing mirrors for the long-sighted

From an eccentric hobbyist/motorist point of view I'd say no, it'll only get used for shooting so it doesn't matter if it's a thirsty heap. Getting it going will be relatively simple, but getting it perfect will take a lifetime. But other than that I agree :look:

I don't remember that episode of Only Fools and Horses

is the hazard switch not fused separately from the indicator? It is on mine!

I use Island4x4 for Defender parts. It's a good idea to change the oil in everything too - engine, diffs, gearbox and transfer box. Or at the very least top them up. Most likely all the brakes will be seized up and need hitting/prying/swearing to release them. As mentioned above, nearly everything rusts away on old landies. Once you get it looking reasonable give it a coat of waxoyl on the underside to keep the rot out. This will definitely keep you busy for some time

Not much difference between them... but... underlever for me. Purely because my HW97k handles so well. If I had a HW80 I would be the other side of the fence Not sure about the time to cock/load. Doesn't seem slow with the 97k, especially compared with a single shot PCP.

Didn't know anyone had a tape measure that long. Tyre choice will be important if its getting lots of road use. Chunky/agri tyres get chewed up quickly on tarmac.

Wielkie witam mnie i google tłumaczyć. I am lazy with any language

Physics 101: Energy = force x distance ....or as we know it lbs x feet Joules = newtons (force) x metres (distance) So it's easy to convert now: 1 Newton = 0.225 lbs 1 metre = 3.281 ft so... 1 Joule = 0.225 x 3.281 = 0.738 ftlbs

FAC relates to power, not calibre. As long as the air rifle is less than 12ftlbs muzzle power you don't need a FAC. Realistically this means it'll commonly be .177 or .22, and uncommonly .20 or .25 BSA meteors are usually around 9-10 ftlbs I believe.

Try taking the air tank off and putting it on again. If it still leaks get it serviced.

They are also pretty hungry, so regular feeds with tomato food will help growth. Really they need to be indoors regardless of the weather. Chillis like it HOT!

No, but as Kent has said, it is down to the individual dog. I tried to pick a puppy that was more submissive, and it's paid off. Just a look can tell him sometimes, other times he needs a word or a nudge in the right direction. My parents' dog is a different story and you have to be very confident and authoritative. Not brutal though, and the most I've done is rolled him over gently. Regarding the OP, I doubt a dog that is cowering infront of its owner is in a good state of mind. A working dog should be happy and confident in what it is doing, but recognise who is in charge. The owner should act as commander in chief, but not oppressor. Often people buy working dogs but cannot cope with their energy if they are not exercised enough, so become more frustrated and angry at the dog's lack of discipline. Horses for courses really.

I was hoping this thread was to do with the Brazilian women's volleyball team

Well I doubt the forward venting adapter would be an issue because a .22 projectile would be completely lost in a 12g barrel. Although possible to make a 'firearm' it would be completely impractical. Unlike a pistol which would have a barrel of comparable diameter to the projectile. Realistically there would be no advantage in using a .22 rimfire shell instead of a 12g cart. I know the rules are a minefield and the penalties are large, but there has to be an element of common sense applied.

I think the complete MS Office suite was £50 from software4students. And I think you can install it on up to 3 computers. Was a couple of years ago though

You might be deemed insane Seriously though, don't be disheartened.

To be fair, shooting a pigeon is one thing, but leaving it to bleed to death under the hedge is quite another.

Nothing like an opening post that draws people together

Also called Goose Grass, Cleavers, Sticky Willie or Robin-run-the-hedge. It is edible and a good source of vitamin C

Have a look for second hand diving bottles on here and other forums. You can make a big saving cos gun shops can be quite expensive. Just be aware of the max pressure of the bottle. Obviously a 300bar bottle will give more fills than a 232bar bottle of equal volume. Particularly important if your rifle fill pressure is relatively high - e.g the HW100 is 200bar, compared to maybe 170 or 180bar for an S410. Regarding regulation: plenty of people get on well with unregulated rifles, but most can have a regulator fitted later if you really want. At the end of the day, choose a rifle that feels right for you.
