Hi guys and girls, so my neighbor has told me she's looking to sell her air rifle! My question is, has anybody heard of a Blizzard S10?? I haven't and I'm not really clued up on many air rifles. From what I can gather it's a 10 shot gas operated rifle with a 4-16x50 scope,and screw on suppressor. If anybody can shed any opinions on the gun or a rough sort of second hand price id really appreciate it. I've looked over the gun already and it's immaculate ( literally bought the other week) just for the condition. Thanks!

£120?? From where?

Okay fair enough, might look into a few other brands! I may be going to the Frampton on Severn game fair so hopefully there will be a good selection to look at ( well maybe not if it was like last year) thanks for the replies ps. Any tips on keeping toes warm other than decent wellies? Cheers

Hi lads and ladies, I'm after a pair of Hunter Balmoral 5mm neoprene wellies. Just wondered if anybody had come across any offers or deals online or in magazines? I do suffer from cold feet, and as the wild fowling season is just starting now is the ideal time to buy a pair. Any other brands or suggestions on keeping me feet warm are most welcome. Thanks!

Does anybody have a 12g cartridge crimper/roller for sale, or know of cheapest place to buy one, many thanks!

Decided today to start off with a smaller budget, and scored a bargain hatsan. 3.5" chambers, semi, in camo. I've never shot or owned a semi before so If all goes well this season, I may invest in a nicer bit of kit for next year. Just need to save up for the carts now, not as cheap as thought! Haha. Thanks for the advice people!

Thanks for the responses! Will have to have a little look and see why I can pick up then! Payday can't come round again soon enough!

I already own pump chambered 3" but I was hoping to invest in a new 12bore for the upcoming wildfowl season, I've got a price range of about £400 either new or used makes no difference. Also I was hoping to pick up a semi. I was just wondering if it's worth forking out the extra and going to 3.5" chambers, although I've heard they tend not to cycle lighter loads as well. What do you guys shoot on the marshes and what inch chambers etc? If I stick with the pump or do end up buying a new gun, are you guys find of any particular carts in either 3/3.5"? Thanks for the advice PS. I will probably use the new addition all year round for most game too!

1 on Tuesday evening. Total - 621

I drove up to newavon arms this morning just for a look around as I've never been, I took the gun with me just incase they gave me a good price. They quoted £50 or less for parts and labour! Well chuffed plus they have a nice lay out In the shop with plenty to look at and the staff are easily approachable for a novice shooter such as my self, nice little shop.

Okay buddy thank you

Hi all, was cleaning my U/O this evening, put it all back together, squeezed the trigger, click click followed by a Ping.. It appears the firing pin shot out the end of the barrel. Have been quoted about £60-70 for repairs, just wondered if anybody in Bristol can do it cheaper. It's a Franchi Brescia 12g, thanks

First thing you would buy?

Frampton cotterell bud

Last nights episode brought back those thrilling chills TWD is all about! Starting to see the characters in a different light.

Okay buddy cool, what part of Bristol are you from?

I'm door knocking at the moment, but there are a few farms around by me so I'll have to have a good chat with the farmers and see if I can get a foot in the door, well.. Field I presume you're doing the same?

Hi all, I'm Harley I'm wondering if anybody in the Bristol area might need a shooting buddy? I'm a laid back lad, looking for experience. I've been out a couple of times and really enjoyed it, but wouldn't mind someone with a bit of exp to show me the ropes, wether it be watching, helping set up or even a second gun, I've got my own kit and fully licenced, and can drive. If anybody fancies it I'll be here, around evenings and weekends, thanks!

Thanks for the feedback guys, I apparently countrywide do 20%discount for slabs of 1000, might have to invest on the weekend.. Now I just need to actually get out and shoot!

@littlerob where are you getting these?? Here in Bristol, anything to do with shooting seems to be super expensive !

Hi all, i swung via countrywide today to see that they now stock a load of things to do with game and shooting. i picked up a price list of there cartridges too, But my question is, has anybody ever used Trust super halcon cartridges? they are 28g no.6 and £5.60 a box and are aparently around 1450 fps. Are they lead or steel and has anybody ever used them, or is there anything else out there around the same price? thanks
