  1. Still getting the warning.

    Fuel cost

    Bm drivers are a lot better than Audi drivers in my opinion . (Tin hat on).
  3. Some are so busy they try to price themselves out of work, madness.
  4. I don't believe in ghosts but I remember every Xmas mum says she is going to midnight mass, I call her out as she never goes any other day, this particular yearbmy brother in law says he will go with her, I'm on the sofa bed downstairsbwith ny rather attractive girlfriend (who annoyingly is a better shot that md) when I see and so does sphe, someone walk past the door way to the front door, I go over to take the Mick and no one is there I let it pass. A few weeks later a friend tells me unprompted they he saw someone come down the stairsb and thought it was me so followed it for it to disappear,. I mentioned this to the family to be told its Fred the ghost who goes down the stairs and out the front door quite often. Weird but true House was so calm and peaceful and no funny businesses ever took place, in fact being x forces I would say that forests on dark nights are the worst for the mind to play tricks. And it does play tricks.
  5. No such thing as a stupid question, besides u don't want a spare round in the breech when its not needed, only lead to an accident No such thing as a stupid question, besides u don't want a spare round in the breech when its not needed, only lead to an accident
  6. Decent hw Springer in either .177 or .22 not fussy and you know it will outshoot and out last you. Given the choice a 99s or a nice 80.
  7. Have a striker in .22, for the money its great, not a hw or bsa but very good. They have one for 75, for that price its a steal
  8. Quite right, fac or not if it shoots its a firearm prettY much.
  9. Can't believe how long people wait, I had my shot gun cert, as did my better have, in less than 3 weeks in the met. That's from posting it to recieving it.
  10. Write a polite letter to the chief constable. Won't hurt future or any for that matter, applications. You've waited long enough.
  11. Out of interest what would u use it for? Never gone smaller than 8 myself and that's pretty small.
  12. I get this sometimes, a chamber brush and liberal soaking of bore cleaner or wd40 whichever is to hand, give it a scrub then clean as normal. you don't need a drill or to spend any longer than 5 mins doing it.
  13. Sod all the previous advice, either see citizens advice or pm me, been there done that. U do need to talk to her on the level. These things go one way and that's not good.
  14. Do not ring and ask unless u want it recorded as a claim, that's there rules, as highlighted in a tv documentary recently. Law says so u do, they make the rules up in between.
  15. 3 weeks from posting it in the met,got called and asked if I had fitted the safe, that took another week. Very good service.
  16. Wouldn't worry about the odd dry fire, done it hundreds of times and it has never caused an issue ever, the only thing I wouldn't dry fire is a spring airgun or a bow without the arrow as it causes major stress. Still if the only thing u have to worry about is thr odd dry fire I guess its all good.
  17. Turn off windows anti virus and play the video
  18. Got a hatsan striker, great gun,, was shooting empty shotgun shells at 40 yards the other day when the squigs wouldn't play, 150 with scope is the going rate from most places. Cheap and accurate and the power is about 11ftlb . Not quite my old hw99s but for the money its fantastic.

  19. Go to theopticians and ask for some wax. U put a small cross of it on the lense then polish off. Looks like a wax block, normally orangey pink and rubber sized. Used it for years and works fine on my glasess and bathroom mirror. Need some more now I think of it. Costs about £1.
  20. I do love a good tinker with things but wouldbt it be easier to take it to a gun smith and let him sort it. Not as much fun I grant u but easier and less hassle.
  21. I have had a long night on the tiles however to make it simply, your licence was taken away and they issued you. A new one, a photo of one on a little card, that one expires after 10 years regardless, they won't issue u an old one as they no longer exist, hence it sounds like your driving not in accordance, hence insurance is also invalid. You Will be lucky to not be disqualified. I cannot comment as to whether the magistrates disqualify u or not as its up to them. I'm not sure of the full facts either, just my view on it.
  22. Read somewhere that they used straw boards as a test, it coukdnt go through x amount of them,, when put over a crono as the tech became available it was found to be 12ftlbs hence the limit. Not sure about pistols but I'd imagine they just halved it for simplicity.
  23. Never noticed any difference myself between 7.5. Or 8
