    Shooting, Shooting, and a bit more Shooting!! Hunting on my days off. I have been shooting since the age of 12 (air rifle) I acquired a shotgun certificate at the age of 15 and a firearm cert' at the age of 25. (now aged 68) I used to participate in pistol shooting, in the good old days when they were legal, and owned many full bore & small bore pistols. I have represented Wales twice in International DTL clay shooting and also represented my county (Mid-Glamorgan) for many years. My shooting now consists mainly of vermin control - crow, pigeon, rabbit, squirrel and fox. I also did Deer stalking for a few years. One of my many other interests is photography, which I have been doing for at least 40 years.

  1. I would just like to say a big 'thank you' to kilamara41 for the sale of a CZ452 in .17 HMR (including a moderator and 2 magazines) to me via RFD-RFD. The transaction went smooth and I was kept up to date throughout the procedure. The rifle is with my RFD friend at the moment until my FAC renewal comes back in May. I haven't seen the rifle as yet, but my RFD friend who is keeping the rifle until such time as I can have it, has stated that 'I have had an absolute bargain and the rifle is in excellent condition'. image.webp
  2. Is it side parallax adjustable?
  3. No, I haven't seen that film. I'll look our for it.
  4. Yes, an excellent film, and good to see Denzil Washington playing a bad guy for a change.
  5. I'm not sure if some have seen this film, but on Friday night at 9pm, American Gangster is on channel 5 star ( Freeview 32 / Freesat 131) I watched this the other night and it was brilliant. Based on a true story too.
  6. There will now be two forms of identification that any online retailer of knives must ask before a sale is agreed. This is all well and good considering that a vast majority of knives used are household/kitchen knives.
  7. Yes, 18650's, my mistake. I get mine from Ecolux (Norbet Polyak) who sells top quality ones. Also, I bought it at the right time from Brownells UK as they have put the price back up to £429:90.
  8. The battery in the Scopemate is a 1860 one, and one was included, although not a good make so I'll change it. The CR32 battery was fitted to my Hawke Vantage scope so that the reticule can be seen more clearly through the Scopemate.
  9. UPDATE: I've finally received the Scopemate S18 and first impressions are that it looks and feels to be a good bit of kit. It's going to be a while before I can get out on the farm to test it (annoyingly, I was up there this morning before the scope arrived) but I will attach it to one of my scopes and test it out at home/back garden etc. UPDATE 2: I've added a new CR32 battery in my scope to better show the reticule when filming. I have ordered a 123gb micro SD card which will be arriving tomorrow. I've also connected the Scopemate to my mobile phone via WiFi but, as yet, can't find out how to alter the settings. All the mobile shows is what the Scopemate is filming. I'll look into this further later on.
  10. For the first time that I can remember, on my renewal form for FAC, there wasn't a question asking how much ammunition I have in my possession.
  11. An appeal has been lodged because it's argued that the scumbag father's sentence is too lenient. I agree, it should be full term life sentence.
