  1. Thanks! Should have added it will be used for everything.
  2. Hi all. Back after a long break (kids, moving house etc). Managed to keep hold of my cert and cabinet but not my guns. Really fancy a supernova but stuck between a 24" or 26" barrel. I did have a 26" Maxus which I loved and recently shot a 26" SXP which was great, but for some reason I'm drawn to the 24" supernova. So which would the PW massive go for? Cheers.

    FWB 300s.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys, much appreciated. I was hoping for a bit more so I don't think I'm too far off the mark. It is far from a wreck, with a reblue and a tidy up it would be a really nice gun. I will give it a quick spit polish tomorrow and stick some pics up. I was thinking along the lines of a TX as I have had a couple previously along with a Prosport. I have been down the PCP route of S200/400, a couple of 410s then a HW100 which I foolishly sold after it lay idle for a while. I really do fancy another springer as it's the simplicity that appeals to me.

    FWB 300s.

    Think I posted this in the wrong section last night as it seems to have vanished so will try in here. To cut a long story short, clearing the loft out I stumbled upon my old FWB 300s last weekend. I bought it as a project a few years ago as it needs some work (reblueing, stock refinishing etc) but it is complete with diopters etc and it is a straight honest gun. I've not shot an air rifle in anger for a good while now but after a bit of plinking with the 300 I fancy another full power air rifle after only shooting loud stuff for the past few years. Is it worth anything as a trade in or would I be better off mothballing it? I've had a look online but prices vary wildly, before I take it to my RFD how much should I be looking to ask for it? Btw, this isn't a thinly veiled 'for sale' post I'm genuinely looking for impartial advice before I have my pants pulled down. Thanks.
  5. Need a cheap trail cam to try and help catch whoever is repeatedly damaging the wifes aunts stables. Would love to splash out on a bushnell but I really don't want to risk it being stolen or smashed up. Looks like I missed the boat on the Aldi cams which looked ideal. Amy other similar cams knocking around that anyone can suggest?
  6. My Ford Ranger Thunder. Use it for everything, work, shooting, fishing and carting the family around. Great for drifting too
  7. Thought his documentary on the raid on st nazaire was fantastic. Looking forward to this!

    Wasps Nest

    Got rid of one in the summer using expanding foam and a bin liner. One was most chuffed with ones self (and I only got stung once lol).
  10. Have an 04 Tdci 90 bhp Connect which I have owned from new, no real issues other than usual service stuff along with a couple of droplinks, an alternator and a couple of glow plugs. Does 40 mpg on average and is a pleasure to drive. Looking for a new Limited model at the moment.

    Hudl Tablet.

    Cheers, couple of good links there. Looks like you can't go wrong for the money. Looked at one today and have to admit it's not quite as sexy as an ipad with the wider bezel but was quite impressed with the screen for the price.
  12. Pfffft. Everyone dances like that when I watch anything back on my broadband connection.

    Hudl Tablet.

    Looking for a tablet for my eldest who's nine. Was looking at the basic ipad, but at the rate she manages to break her ipod screens etc I begrudge paying out that kind of money. Will only be used for playing apps etc which as I understand it are easily downloaded via Google Play, so it doesn't have to be anything spectacular. Seems a cheap deal at £119 but I can't help but wonder if there are any drawbacks? No previous experience of android as the rest of the family are ifreaks whilst I'm stuck in the dark ages with a Blackberry that needs the battery pulling out every other day. Anyone own one?
  14. My HW100 when I was skint with young kids. Was a proper tack driver. Keep meaning to pick another one up. Sold a 525 around the same time which I shot really well with, had sleepless nights at the time they went but needs must.
  15. Thanks Scottoj18, I appreciate what you are saying. That would be great if you could make any suitable suggestions, cheers.
