  1. It's bloody awful! Lol

     

    Good laugh though fair play to you buddy - some people wouldn't dream of doing that to a rifle - even an SMK! :P

     

    It can always be an ice breaker at a club or something. Get there 'oh hi I'm such and such, what do you shoot?'

     

    'Hi I shoot a zebra monstrosity!' Lol

     

    Good on ya buddy

  2. Get down to your local shoot and ask for beating for next season.

     

    This may not get you shooting tomorrow, but will certainly get you well on the way in a years time.

     

    You will certainly meet a few people who need some ratting on their farm, or forbids knocking back from attacking their livestock when lambing etc.

     

    You could also offer to help out a little during the break - there's always plenty going on at our local shoot in preparation for next season and it would certainly stand you in good stead for next season should the gamekeeper ever need anyone

  3. Il tell you why, these threads always end the same.

     

    With person after person coming in telling them they have no chance of getting given a perm having been here 5 mins and contributed nothing and gained no trust.

     

    They get told the same thing - to get out knocking on doors

     

    Why not read through the last god knows how many wanted threads and see the exact same text time and time again

     

    Tbh I think the wanted section is useless and a waste of space. I learned this by posting like this myself.

     

    Best thing is as above get out and ask face to face and offer your services in return maybe something other than shooting for example if your a plumber etc

     

    By all means keep your eye on the opportunities offered threads for something nearby but a good post count and showing your someone who can be trusted will still be a must.

     

    The way I had it explained to me is would you let a strange person you don't know wander around your land with a dangerous and loaded firearm?

  4. Can any of you recommend a decent shooting range as above?

     

    The only ones I can find I have to pay membership for a year straight up (or at least half of it) and I wouldn't know if it's somewhere I'd like to spend time, or even how I'd get on with people there.

     

    I'd much prefer a pay as you go and low membership fee but I guess that's not the way it works....

  5. Will do should hopefully be tomorrow afternoon. Although starting to think I need to sort a bipod too lol

    Getting costly lol

    The a tec still hasn't come in. He says should be Tuesday. Apparently they are hard to get as they can't make them quick enough in Sweden. Always a good sign!

  6. i personally would be going back to this gunsmith and would be explaining that im unhappy about it and firstly give him the opportunity to correct/explain

     

    if i was then unhappy with the outcome i would explain i will be taking it to SFS and he will receive the bill

  7. I would say look at a second hand :

    Daystate Huntsman

    AA s410

    BSA Ultra

     

    And cal wise .177 !

     

     

    Dont forget to show us some photos when you get it, My FAC Huntsman could do with a different silencer !
