  1. hi, as the title says , is there a bipod for a hw77 underlever .22 air rifle, thanks in advance
  2. thanks guys for the replys. will get it sorted. which spring kit would you guys recommend. i even made a proper spring compressor .
  3. thanks for the replys. the gun has been underpowered for ages , i have since fitted new ox spring , top hat and washers , new piston seal , barrel seal , polished the piston . i was expecting it to be over 12 foot pound but it is still not as powerful as a friends standard out of the box HW97K. Thanks. i matched the seriel numbers with the right size piston etc. i am taking it to a shop in letchworth tomorrow , to get it looked at.
  4. has anybody on here used "stutley gun" near Royston to service / repair their hw77k air rifle. any reviews.
  5. dont forget the most important thing , LOTS OF PRAISE ,
  6. hi fellow gundog trainers, over the weekend i did a check up of commands i use. 4 pips for recall ( with lots of molly,molly,molly ) 1 pip for turning left / right with hand signals and lots of excited here molly , here molly . 1 hard 2 second pip , MEANING STOP NOW, usually followed by SSSSTTTTOOOOOPPPPP , and trying to then run like a 6 foot, 16 stone lump with 6 inch legs. BACK for a retrieve .any retrieve. DEAD to let go of a retrieve. HUP to sit and stay sat . usually followed by another 2 /3 HUPS. OVER to clear an obstacle. GO FIND EM , WHERE IS IT , GO FIND EM to start her hunting, which if i dont HUP first she will go hunting anyway no need to tell her to start. GO PEE for the obvious when your trying to get to bed at 11pm. have fun everybody , its not that bad. lol. loz and molly
  7. i have a 1 1/2 year old springer named molly. i use , GO FIND EM ------ to hunt, quarter her beat. HUP ------- to sit and stay sat. BACK ----- to retrieve. 1 pip on whistle---- to turn left or right with hand signals ( she quarters well on her own so dont use this much ) 1 long pip ----- STOP NOW. 4 quick pips ------ recall back to me. we have been working full on with all the above commands to get some sort of control , although , she has heard the gun in conjunction with hunting , flushing and retrieving. im looking forward to getting her out there and carry on with the next stage of training. good luck every body , and maybe see some of you at the beginning of march. thanks. loz and molly.

  9. its only the mud thats keeping my rav4 94 plate filler pipe intact, im sure if i scrape the mud off it will start leaking.
  10. Hi. when appying for a FAC license , ( something like 17hmr or 22 hmr to kill rabbits with ) do you actually need a landowner to verify your application on a specific piece of land / farm etc. or can you just apply like a shotgun license. i have a few permissions already that i can shoot my 22 air rifle on but its getting more difficult to get near the rabbits . i would need to apply for an open ticket i know, but was just wondering.
  11. hw77 springer. i do wear glasses for both reading and driving , i was just wondering if the next size up on scope size would make it easier for me to see . most of my bunnie bashing is at night with a zoomable T6 led torch strapped to it and a larger lamp on my jeeps roof. thanks
  12. hi everyone. bit of a newbie question ( normally shoot shotguns ) i have a 3-9 x 40 hawke scope on my .22 weighrak , i understand this is an entry level scope. what size would be a good upgrade .. thanks. loz.

  17. Rest in peace my beautiful Beau,​ ​Beau fought long and hard with the demons in her head , but just lately they started to get control of her. ​ we decided to ease her pain and finish the fight before they got complete control. ​rest in peace my little angel now the pain has gone. ​miss you like crazy already. ​xxxxx
  18. training the working spaniel by janet menzies. training spaniels by joe irving. BUT also get some expert help hands on if you can , its definately worth it , it saves you making silly mistakes in the beginning that prove difficult to change later on. cheers.
  19. i believe its not common at all , but it is not just show cockers , it can be all sorts of dogs. there is loads of info on google
  20. if you have read the earlier post about the feeding bowl and my fingers , i went to see a behaviourist and it was he that told me to feed beau with my hand in her food , that was nearly 8 months ago , it hasn't changed a thing i still cant touch her when she is eating, but she doesn't mind my fingers in her bowl , she even licks them clean. and also to command her to move off from sleep rather than touch.
