Lamp arrived today, well packed and exactly as described... top bloke to deal with. Cheers Rob.

Hi Badshot and I have experimented over the years with different colours and we have found the Amber to be the best allrounder, red dims the beam too much on a 170, is ok on a 240 though. Also the use of the lamp is important, as most will allready know, once the Fox has been spotted as little light as poss is directed at the fox, play the beam just above it and lower only just enough light to maintain contact via eye reflection, gently lower the beam just as the shot is taken. I have taped a deben dimmer to the handle and shortened the wiring so the beam can be toned down to suit the needs at the time. Cheers Rob

Eat your heart out Mung, I know I,m c o n s i d e r a b l y older than you and had a head start. I have owned (being a LR nut) From memory; a 1950 series 1 swb, sad to say it was a hardtop but was green, sidevalve and somewhat gutless. a 1962 series 2 90, again green and a sight better than the above, this was a truck cab with canvas tilt. no overdrive. a 1983 reg ex mod 109, should have been a Q but got a Y, resprayed green, truck cab very low miles. a 1979 series 3 90, green truck cab used this picking up for 8 years till it failed mot on bulkhead rot. a 1975 series 3 90, green truck cab, overdrive, transfer box on way out so sold on rapidly for profit. a 1994 def 300tdi, green hardtop, todays customised lamping wagon and I love it, high miles but runs fine. Anyone thinking of buying an old Landy, be careful there,s lots of rubbish out there that will cost and keep on costing a mint!! Cheers Rob.

I have one of these on .223, its an excellent low light foxing scope, when my eyes pack up in the gloom I can still see through the scope to shoot. A fair price for a quality scope imo. Cheers Rob

Going to have a moan, new member... no location entered on profile... places add... we have to ask "where are you"... again. I posed this question to a mod recently and apparently their hands are tied, cannot make it a rule that profiles should be completed. Never mind had my huff"n"puff but if I were selling I would be putting the item location in, common sense really? Cheers Rob.

Made contact with Delta1 for you, let us know how long it takes to resolve the problem. It looks as though you have been denied pm,s but can still be emailed. What have you done, sent a snotty pm to someone and they have complained and got you banned? Do you remember complaining to the mods about me about a year ago, because I posted that something you were selling could be bought cheaper at xyz......... that cost me a months ban!! Cheers anyway, but what goes round comes round, as they say D2D PS just had pm from Delta1, I have passed on his email addy.

Imo it should be mandatory for members to fill out at least the county in the profile before posting ads, by not doing so pointless replies are generated which just clog up the forum. I have a nice folding .410, and if it were for sale I would not bother asking where in the country this chap is on principle. Cheers Rob.

Wanted .410 moderated pump, prefer FAC but 3 shot ok. will travel and pay good money for right gun. Please pm. Cheers Rob

Yes please as per pm. Details to follow, payment addy etc. Cheers Rob.

Made me chuckle, almost spat my dunked biscuit out lol. Rob. Reading further down this thread, I would question whether anyone would see more than a dozen English partridge in a covey. I am rusty on Partridge but the Grey is extremely territorial and a cock bird will defend up to 3/4 acres dependant upon size of fields and in turn hedgerow placement which restricts the cockbirds line of sight. Correct me if I am wrong, not confusing the Frenchman which is a completely different matter. Cheers Rob.
