  1. My FEO said to take them to RFD as Police may not have right facilities!!. A west London RFD charged me £30 a gun.
  2. Hi, looking for a Beretta field stock spacer with the 12.5 mm or the 25mm or both! thanks in advance Alastair
  3. Hi I am after some optima HP chokes. I am looking for either 1/4 and /or a 3/4. Would prefer flush fitting either Beretta/Teague/Briley many thanks Alastair
  4. Thanks, I can find new for £80+. But was just reaching out to see if any had one they no longer use.
  5. Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a double gun case that is suitable for flying with that they may no longer use?. Thanks in advance
  6. I use them, never had an issue but also never had to contact them so can’t really tell.
  7. The likes of me, I said 1000 birds in Africa , pigeons and pest control. At best I could stretch to a 200 bird in the uk after that I would rather spend the money on something else. So not really a commercial shoot as you describe although I do pay for the pleasure
  8. Then why not just go down the pub instead? I do this because I enjoy it from 1000 birds a day in Africa to the syndicate days, I can do all you say without without having to shoot things. I am new to shooting compared to most of you. I am only on my second renewal, but have had many a debate on this at our syndicate dinners. The shooting fraternity is backward facing IMO ( my intention is not to offend but I guess I will). We face IMO two choices be proactive address change and have a chance of being at the table or get dragged forward and take what we are given. There are no guarantees either way but I know which I prefer. Shooting will change, it is a fringe activity ( please don’t call it a sport as I believe that only hastens our demise) many don’t understand and never will . I don’t agree with how the this change has come about but if I am honest I don’t think any other approach would have worked given the perspective of many shooters.Lead is toxic that is undeniable and we can go around in circles about levels and research etc. We are not being progressive only defensive. I would like to keep shooting as long as possible and I think for that to happen we need to be looking forwards. Obsolescence and change are inevitable and are often beyond our control but damage can be managed
  9. Absolutely, we all keep a couple of big loads in the bag but reality is you’ll shoot what’s loaded
  10. I understand that, I bought a slab of gamebore DS steel last season and retuned after 2 boxes - they were awful I couldn’t even use the for Claus, won’t use Gambore again - probably excessive but confidence and wallet dented. I am very happy with these
  11. I have a slab of 32 4’s , only 2 boxes in but all have gone bang
  12. Indeed I have to return mine to the dealer
  13. Hi , I have a recent issue and I thought combined wisdom of the PW would be able to assist . I had a relative pass away very recently who had a number of shotguns. Unfortunately we were unable to transfer due to my license currently in for a change of address ( it’s been over 2 weeks! ). How can we secure the guns and get transferred once I get my license back. Can the partner of the deceased leave them with an RFD? To facilitate this? thanks in advance
