Thanks for that. Looks a very tidy gun.

It probably needs a close up photo. I have enlarged this photo and it looks like a crack, although it is probably the coloured action finish.

Had bikes since I was a teenager from 175cc to 1,000cc. Gave up road bikes in 2003, when a junior spill turned into septicaemia and MRSA. Had umpteen off road bikes - my last being a Honda CR500. My lads raced AMCA Experts and we have owned many bikes. Currently Honda CR500 (aluminium frame) x 2. a Beta Evo 300 trials and a Gas Gas TT trials.

Keep looking. There is no alternative. There are a fair number of companies who aren't on the comparison sites. Not sure why you are doing the emailing, as this adds another person onto the number who have caused the problem.

Barrel length, chamber size, chokes, wood, synthetic, photos etc would assist your sale

I thought Israel had apologised. What exactly does anyone expect Israel to do? Forget their people being massacred - a lot more than three? Where were all the critics when this happened? Were "the lads" serving the UK when they were killed? It's war zone - these things happen.

Hang on, Trump isn't in power. All this has happened under Joe Biden's presidency. Whatever you say about Trump, do you honestly prefer the senile Biden? Honestly?????????

My heart says I hope Ukraine prevails, but I just don't see it. Most of the media seem to reluctantly accept it is not going well for the Ukraine. "Only a Ukraine win" is putting all your eggs in one dodgy basket. Unless Putin is ousted, I think they are going to have to accept that territory which has been won by Russia is going to stay with Russia.

It is the Post Office Investigation Service and the senior management who are to blame. They knew at least 15 years ago that Horizon was seriously faulty, but it suited them all to keep quiet. What does stick in my throat is that the very investigators who led the prosecution of innocent postmasters were perverting the course of justice. They did not give honest disclosure to the defendants. I trust they will have their day in court.

CPSA no longer allows autos or pumps in skeet comps?
Gordon R replied to flippermaj's topic in Clay Pigeon Shooting
The auto ban does not apply to English Skeet, just the Olympic version. The "Safety" reason seems a complete invention, with no real basis. I can understand that on DTL or ABT, an auto ejecting shells might distract your neighbour, but autos have been used for many, many years and I don't recall any serious incidents. Skeet shooters have no-one stood next to them From memory, more skeet one hundred straights have been shot with a Remington 1100 gas auto than any other gun. -
The woodwork looks nicely finished.

All gone.

Picked up by Dogs - pleasure to meet him.

This glitch happened a couple of months ago to many people. It is a Facebook fault and should rectify in a couple of days.

Looking to apply for my first FAC some advice needed?
Gordon R replied to Lollim2023's topic in General Shooting Matters
There are a number of levels of security clearance, none of which would aid your application. As for "immediate family" - you would be advised to use referees who are not related to you at all. If you don't join a club and build up a relationship there, I believe your application is doomed. -
I rate the new Vitara. Nearly bought my wife one, but seats weren't as comfortable as our previous SX4.
-
My wife ran a Suzuki SX4 - same engine as the current Vitara - had it 6.5 years, which is a record for us. We are on our 114th car and the Suzuki was the most reliable / cheapest to run by a mile. I actually regret getting rid of it. Her SX4 was an automatic and did mid 40s on petrol. The newer cars S-Cross and Vitara have the same engine - does mid 50s.
