  1. Cheers had hopd was going to be a new fowling load with copper shot
  2. What do you mean by 'in copper'? Do you load pure copper shot, or copper plated lead?
  3. Used to shoot an Alex Martin sxs 20 for years and used nothing but 7/8 oz no 7 Hull High Pheasant for everything from snipe to Greylags with great success if at sensible ranges. Wish had never sold it
  4. Looks ok. I see it includes Payne Galeways diary. It is a copy of his diary with a few bits added or qworth getting a copy? /
  5. To buy what l want, sod the costs and never mind what the girlfriend says as she can be replaces quite easily! More fowling too.
  6. Looked at a 525 20 bore recently found the handling and wood superb but the action with the silver inlays were far to bling for me. Makes it look like a hair dressers gun
  7. Where did you get those? Like them
  8. Have a couple of brady canvas and leather leg of mutton type cases. Good stuff but hard to find. Got mine off ebay
  9. He is quite active on some of the Facebook fowling pages advertising for guns

  12. I pixked up the very same at a local shop at 25 quid a box last summer

  14. t From 1st August 1883 Mr Perrins has decided to offer a genuine reduction of 20% for cash on all best guns costing over £10. The offer is due to him being overstocked with best guns, both “ the ordinary kind and hammerless.” Perrins & Son moved yet again - to 59 Broad Street, Worcester - and were still listed among local businesses in 1892, which meant that by then John Perrins had been operating successfully in the city for almost 60 years. Perrins & Son was taken over by Herbert E Pollard in 1892 moving to 62 Broad Street in 1900 - was this a move or expansion of premises? It's not known exactly when the firm went out of business though it may have been before the dawn of the 20th Century. t Tthere must have been more than one
  15. Think pollard was from worcester
  16. Anyone know if this has a manual or auto safe?
  17. Try before you buy would be my advice. Have had both and plumped for a 725 UK premium game gun. The Beretta handled like a plank of wood.
  18. Nothing much at Lindisfarne been gooseless most season. Think its too mild.
  19. where abouts? On the Tees
  20. The older I get the more unethical commercial driven shooting becomes to me especially on a large scale. If birds cannot be used the y should not be shot, maybe we need reform of driven shooting prevent this. The operation should be named and shamed.
  21. There is no legal basis far a good reason. Under uk law your are entitled to hold an sgc unless the police can show otherwise
