Salty

Any more details, pics, age etc?

Bravo! Well said!

I couldn't have put it better myself! Dennis comes across as a narrow minded bigot.

You are, of course absolutely correct I what you say, but I do believe every experiment requires a 'control' sample to validate the results, so I shall recreate the experiment this weekend!

Once again, good valid points made here, it's not the gun that kills, it's the nut behind the trigger! Anyone blaming the make or configuration of shotgun, and ignoring the fact we have a rat arrsed used BMW salesman, disregarding safety basics!

Wait until she graduates to watches & iPhones! Lol

I agree with all your points made here.

PhilUpNorth does sound like an utter throbber, I agree!

Sanity prevails, we'll put Sir!

Lol! Lol#2 Very well put!

Goose fat potatoes for Xmas lunch then?

Tractor W>>>>RS!!!

Comet?

You've hit the nail on the head there Brother! A lot of people get told what they NEED by people who sell just what they're recommending. This message is reinforced by other people who went through the same indoctrination process years before. So we have a never ending cycle of sales, marketing s, accepted 'norms' and then we're trapped in a fusty tweed-smelling loop of buying the old predictable cack our grandfathers did, while the world has moved on. Only in shooting circles are people still feeling chuffed to use technology dating back to the 1900s, mostly rustled up in the Far East, Turkey or Italy. If we all applied this type of thinking to our other purchases and hobbies, we'd be walking down the street clutching a wind up gramophone under our arms rather than an iPod. And rather than typing this in my living room on an iPad, I'd be penning a strong letter of complaint on s e parchment, ready to roll up small, and stuff into a Pigeons sock!

Spelled that correctly, not 'spelt'. Oh the irony.

True dat!

Such a shame that John Lennon was shot. If it had been McFartney instead we could all stay in bed all day with a Chinese, or at very worst, a burger!

Just to qualify this, it was a joke. I didn't want the inevitable backlash from the pipe & slippers brigade, polished their SxS shotguns by a roaring fire of spaniel hair and twigs.

Yeah why should we have to move over to the States to enjoy a puff? Totally out of order I agree!

I think more people should just buy the guns they actually want to own, and then go to their local clubs and shoot them. In Britain we're far too complicit and tend to follow the herd, screw the herd, stand out and make them realise they've wasted thousands on engraving when your £300 snorter will do exactly the same thing in the right hands. Enough of the Emperors Clothes BS that surrounds shooting!

Well said that man!

Oh trust me! I get to enjoy several Range Rovers full any time I like!

Mods, I think we can lock this thread before somebody's packed lunch gets spilled in the playground.

A bit like The US Office I'd imagine, a pale imitation of the original, and frankly just embarrassing to watch?
