well done terry
p.s im just coming past junction 59 on my way to you should be there for 12 o clock.........i wish
good luck for tomoro
It's a sin not to stop at Maccy Dee's on the way

Get plenty of cover as well, shooting from a vehicle is good.
Or get plenty of camo netting or shoot from a good thick hedgerow.
As said before, they are very very clever

All the two's, 22 on a bare patch of rape

Any report of persons armed or appears to be armed will be checked into.
You will then find yourself really popular very quickly.
Your under no obligation to advise your relevant force, but nothing ruins your night / day than an ARV with lights and whelps going

Save them for raves, might need a few glow sticks....gas gas gas, positive wave over, negative wave over :yp:

Definitely worth it if you've got fields near you (remember you have to reccie them before you shoot them - if you want to give yourself the best chance of having a good day that is). Taking away the hassle of knocking on dozens of farmers doors or dealing with other people who might not like you shooting on 'their' patch etc is well worth £125 imo
I was a member but the fields kept moving further and further south until it got to the point that i couldn't afford the time or petrol so i didn't renew.

Know what you mean, the closest is Middleton Tyas, I work near scotch corner and all my land I use is a little bit further on.
Can understand folks that live further a field, it's a bit far to travel :o
On the whole I find the club spot on, and not bad on the wallet for a whole year.
Makes a change from bunny bashing !

It never ceases to amaze me how many people can come up with simple but cracking bits of kit.....
.....and share them with the rest, take my hat off to you squire

Is this still up for sale ?
-
:blink: , I thought a 50 mile round trip
was long, most of my shooting land is on farm stock, loads of rough shooting, but I somehow have got a little tired of this....pigeons are proving a little tougher to hit.
Will get there in the end
....out foxing tonight on my mates land.....here goes 'nowt :o -
Rape.
Had a proper naff day today.
3 pigeons seen, missed all of them.
Ended up with 10 Crows and 3 medium size rabbits.
Loved the time alone just wish there were more things to scare
-
It seems the other way up 'norf, there are quite a few at the moment
Finally got my SGC, had my firearms for a good few years.....but I don't have the time.
Lost a farm a few months ago as I didnt have the time to shoot, when I went to see the damage they caused I could understand why

Took 4 weeks from start to finish for mine Durham police
Andy
9 weeks for mine with Durham, glad it's not Northern Ireland though !!!!

Thanks for replies chaps, very useful info. Any of you N Ireland lads know how long the FAC variation normally takes?
Drop them an e-mail:- firearms@psni.pnn.police.uk , they will be able to let you know the timescales.
A major re-organisation is taking place at the moment, however, this will not impeed your application

I have a Mk3 Super Ten BB in .22, left handed and can get about 200 shots from a full refill on the 232 bar buddy bottle, the .177 version is around 160.
Rapid 7
Mk1 .177 200 shots
Mk2 .177 220 shots all from a 200 bar buddy bottle
If a Rapid 7 was available in a left hooker at the time of buying the super ten, the Rapid would of been top choice.
Had one before and also one in FAC, wish I never sold them on.
As for the range, well, that down to your own skill
-
I'm always around the A1 normally, see quite a few knocking about, more so down near Junction 49 (either side)...might try a day down there.
One of my permissions is at Leeming Bar, only rabbits, fox's and a few deer (now and again)..the land runs along side the A1 and they never seem to get spooked....only if you go lamping, weird when cars run up and down all night !
-
Boys, you both have some serious kit
-
If you ring John Shooter on 01423 711489 (after between 7pm and 10pm weekdays) he will be able to tell you or e-mail him, all details on the NPPC website
-
Saw a black 4x4 and the sticker on the side and someone setting up.
Not shot down that far yet, but I work on the A1 so I can keep an eye out on the activity of the pigeons
-
Who was the sharp shooter in the field next to the A1....any joy ?
-
For £20.00 looks a good set up

7 over the weekend

Around Middleton Tyas at the moment, a few bare patches to set up on.
Only 3 rabbits and a couple of crows the other day, pigeons were a bit fast for me
-
For me, can't fault it.
I have about 1200 acres in total, but just rabbit and fox, no crops and as such no pigeons.
Only been with them just over a month and it's worth every penny
:yes: -
Thanks for the info, most helpful
Armed BTP?
in Off Topic
Posted
The merger between the BTP, VOSA and Highways Agency is now being discussed.
That will ruffle a few feathers, in all likely hood it will create a national transport police force....it's how all the americian and german traffic patrols started.
The house of lords seem to be impressed at the idea / cost saving.
