You could try a goldenrod gunsafe dehumidifier or similar; dehumidifier might be a bit of a misnomer as it appears to be a heating element, but it might be worth a look
-
Might be worth checking if the money has been taken - I’ve tried ordering chokes for two different guns from them on separate occasions previously and both orders got cancelled and my money returned. I also tried to order a gaep shell holder at one point as well and that got cancelled and refunded
-
I use something called Ammo Pro Gun XS-2 salt neutraliser - its a liquid in a spray bottle, I just give the gun a couple of squirts of that and then wipe it over with a rag before I head home and it seems to be doing the trick.
-
All sold now thanks gents
-
As above: not fussed on style or constriction, I’m just looking to confirm compatability on a gun before I buy an aftermarket choke so the cheaper the better
Edit: 12 bore

Nice footage, looks a good day

I’ve got a pinkfoot one, really like it as it’s easy to get a decent sound out of although I haven’t been able to get out to try it on the foreshore yet

I cannot understand why there is any debate about staying put and keeping yourselves and others safe.
I work on building sites all week with hundreds of other people - I cant see how being on the foreshore 5/600 yards minimum away from anyone else is putting anyone at risk more than when I am at work?

Yep but whats a reasonable journey - my fowling is 45 mins up the A1!
1 hour and 10 for me, but I cant go anywhere closer as there isnt anywhere closer, so I’d say that’s reasonable.....

It certainly is

Mine is the .705” - I haven’t had a chance to get out and try it out yet though

I think the v3 models are Remington choke, but I’m not 100%

Fair point.
I'll let you tell me that again when you are out on the marsh looking for some poor soul who went out thinking having a GPS app on a phone would keep him safe.
I think as long as people are aware that these gps/google maps setups are an aide memoire rather than a substitute for actual knowledge then they should be ok, I agree there is nothing better than hands on experience - but if crossings/entrances/exit points on a map are used with a bit of common sense (I know that could be a big ask!) then they could become the foundation for a good level of knowledge on their local patch. I guess the problem with this is that all this recon is best done outside of the season, and a lot of interested newbies seem to leave it until the season has started

If you have to rely on a phone to find your way on and off a marsh you don't belong there.
I get what you’re saying, but arent we better served with more people getting interested in Fowling instead of numbers declining into obscurity? If using digital maps and marking waypoints etc on these is what helps to bring new blood into the sport surely its worth it?
Less wildfowlers means less club fees and permit money used to lease/buy wetlands, and less money for wardens In areas which operate permit schemes. Less money for wardens in these areas means money for their wages and costs need to be topped up from other sources - at what point would they be deemed not financially viable and an easy route to ending wildfowling in those spots (Lindisfarne for example)
More actual wildfowlers also means more BASC members, (taking this at face value and ignoring all of the current BASC problems/issues) which means a higher percentage of wildfowlers to vote for committee members, and indeed stand as committee members
Look at the Natural England Humber Estuary debacle, declining numbers of wildfowlers could lead to more situations like this; lack of use could quite plausibly be used as a reason to not renew consents on other areas

Thanks Jim, handy tip!
I’ve done a little bit of fiddling today, and they’re looking better - I think #5 is spot on. I won’t be loading any more now until I have some cork spacers to use instead of these felt ones.
from left to right
1. BB X2 spacers
2. BB X3 spacers
3. BB x3 spacers
4. #2 x3 spacers
5. #2 x4 spacers
Thanks for all your input so far
Lindisfarne gods country!

Still access issues with the farmer for access at the north end, the footbridge down by tealhole is out of use as it is damaged/unsafe so you have to cross the creek as best you can without it. Plenty of birds about this season though
