  1. It did not relocate, and it wasn't doing good.

    Baillifs were sent over for unpaid debts and people whom had guns on comission sale in there, never got any money or the guns back...

    If you want to pop over , there is a vape shop on the premisses  with a good selection of flavours lol

    Well my way is you state weather you want Air rifle or .22 RF or a centerfire all three are completely different . you can't put down you want a .22 air rifle then go and buy a .22 centerrifle   

    Don't put down you want a .22 air rifle, just put .22. Then go and buy whatever you fancy as long as is on your FAC.

     Do you get your cheque back if they don't grant the variation?

    Yes you do.

  3. On my last variation i applyied for a 7mm Rem Mag and the ticket came back as 7mm rifle only.

    I have double checked with my FEO and he said i can get any 7mm i fancy , (7x64, 7mm-08, etc) as on the FAC is stated the caliber, not the chambering. The RFD had no issue with this so i purchased the 7mm Rem Mag.

    Now on renewal i put for a .22 rifle so i can buy a .22 FAC air, a .22 rimfire or a 22 hornet centerfire if i want to.

  4. Got quite excited about the begginig of the roe buck season so went out on a sunny afternoon, on a small but productive patch, to see what is moving about.

    Seen quite a few deer including 2 big bucks but left them alone , and on my way back i came across this one, at about 60 yards standing still giving me time to aim for the neck, pulled the trigger and he dropped on the spot.

    Having cured my roe buck fever for the moment , i had to remind myself that is almost the end of the fallow buck season so the next three outings were exclusively dedicated in trying to get a few more bucks on the deck and keep the landowner happy.

    Had a cracking time but it was hard work at times , with the last buck weighting a healthy 124lbs larder weight, but managed to extract with the help of the Polaris, even though i couldn't get exactly where i want it, due to some logs blocking the access.

    That's the end of the fallow season for me, bring on the roe buck rut!
