Does anyone in the UK import Banded gear or can it only be ordered from the states? TIA

Am thinking of getting a late model, low milage 4x4 as a shooting/fishing vehicle. Any opinions on longevity, robustness etc.

Newcastle wildfowlers, northumberland abd durham or hartlepool clubs are your choices. Newcastle has a good website with contact details on it

http://looks very like a midland ou which i think was sold by parker hale in the 70s

Seems like a stalemate of sorts. Unless a half decent deal if offered thevmarket will stagnate which is bad for all. May resort to selling privately

no bargains or discounts to be had around me. Dealers have been to for a Rizzinni RBEM 20 all quote RRP and offer miserly p/x values for my browning 725.

Buy a small fishing priest from a tackle shop for a few quid. No need for a club!

There is l think more to it than that. The BASC have been deafingly quiet on explanations. Could it be an English Findhorn?

A small part is to harveys but no further south

Just to let folk know if you haven't had an email from BASC that the access for fowling at Lindisfarne has been severely restricted for the coming season. There is effectively no parking or access to the shore or sands from the Beal car park at the causeway. this effectively closes the top half of the reserve as the only other access is Fenham Mill with very little parking. There was no explanation provided by the BASC as to why the closure has occurred. Guess it will see a fall of in permit sales. The is a map provided on the BASC Northern page. Looks like the possible end of another fowling ground.

Changes are too late for lindisfarne this season

It must be the same Mr Jarrett from KWA who was meant to be involved in the Richard Ali carry on - these surely cant be 2 folk with the same name in fowling circles?

It is not, apology accepted.

first I have heard of a new wildfowlers association. Who is behind it? does it have any financial clout or the influence or connection, research facilities etc. of BACS?? We need to be united not more fragment to maintain our sport

Maybe so but it still means we cant get gear at reasonable prices from the USA and will get ripped off here.
