What i want to know is it ok to use the 30g no 6 Pigeon Specials that i use in my other newer gun. The Aya is approximately 1979. I know its 70mm chambers so that's no prob. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks all, for the info. Have got another member of here coming with me tomorrow to have a look. He has just told me that is how his is. He said that he don't know great amounts on them but he has the exact same model as the one i am interested in and he will defiantly know more than i do. Thanks all

    does this meen there is something wrong if you have to have the diff lock **** down in the high posistion for the car to move in drive, with it in the neutral posistion and in drive it just revs no movement.

    Hi all, as a complete idiot when it comes to anything mechanical, i am after a bit of advice. I have been and had a drive in a Land Rover Discovery today, that is being sold by a mate of a mate. What i want to know about is the small lever that is the Diff lock. It is an auto model, and i was wanting to know what the diff lock actually is. I notice that there is low,neutral and high. Does this meen that the diff lock has to be used for everyday driving in either high or low. As when i had a play and put the diff lock **** in the neutral position and put the car in drive it did nt move. I know these are probably very stupid questions but i really am an idiot when it comes to these things. Thanks
  10. I have one pair of hands, if i am expected to work on my own then i have to carry what i can in one go and place it where i am working, whilst i go get what else i nead to carry out the work. I had to park the van in the only place that you can park and then walk over to the job, which as i have said was about 30 yards away from the van. The scum bags who took this had lifted it before i knew what had happened so i cant see how i am negligent and that the only person who is in the wrong is me. My firm sends me to areas like this as i said single handed, whats to say that next time i make sure that i strap the tools to me so they cant be taken and whilst i am taking care of what i am using the plonker then brake into the van. If this firm dont want to offer me any sort of protection for the tool i am using what chance have i if they have the van away with my tools.
  11. Thanks for reply, Thats the bloody annoying thing. The works superviser is an ex chippy just like us. He has said that is their answer and that is that. When i was self employed and worked on sites it would have meant me doing a bit more graft to make the loss, but now working here it dont work like that as the overtime is not there and for me to go and replace the Makita i had go, at a cost of £300 to me, would be like throwing the cash away as i cant actualy make that money back as my wages stay the same. Thanks again though for the advice.
  12. Hi all, dont know if anyone out ther may be able to help, but i am after some advice regarding work. About 2 months ago i started work for a property maintance co, directly employed PAYE carring out work on housing assoc properties. Last week i was sent to an estate to repair some fencing around the communial play park. I had taken some tools from my van and had carried them 30 yards and placed them on the ground where i was going to be working. I then had to go back to the van to get a box of screws. Whilst i had my head in van, approx 20 secs some scumbag had it away down road with my Cordless drill. I phoned my office who said they would get onto the head office to find out about replacing it. When i went back to my depot i was told that head office said tough titty they dont have any responsability over my tools, be it stolen or broken. Now i have gone through the contract i have and there is no mention of this in the contract, infact there is no mention of the fact that i have to have my own tools. I was using my drill to carry out their work and they say they are not to blame. Does anyone have any idea if i have a leg to stand on. Would they have slipped this condition in somewhere else maybe. I have a letter confirming my employment and this also does not make any mention. I see from this list of things they sent me was a code of practice which i had to sign and return to them. i cant find a copy of that and i dont remember anything in that about tools. Would that be the place that they would put that down. This is the first time i have been employed directly by a firm on a PAYE contract so i dont know where i stand. Any help would be great.
