  1. He lost the password to his youtube channel. As far as I know he's still Daryl's about.
  2. Thinking logically my only concern would be; you and only you should know where the keys to the gun cabinet are kept.(I cannot stress this enough) Preferably in a second safe,the type that does not need keys.
  3. Congratulations ! This is one of the best times of the year to go shooting There is a great atmosphere around the shooting grounds, leading up to christmas and the new year.
  4. Not good. Making jigs should be part & parcel of their job. 50% of a machinist job is finding a way to hold a component and then clocking true. Seeing as barrel mods are the business this is poor excuse in my opinion.
  5. i thought you had to inform the police you have permission to shoot there. But i might be wrong.
  6. yes I think your right, the seems to be no mention of S1 or pistols.
  7. probably best to ask BASC, I have just found this if it helps: BORROWING RIFLES ON PRIVATE PREMISES Incorporating amendments from the Policing and Crime Act 2017 The detail in this fact sheet becomes law on 2nd May 2017 Section 11A of the Firearms Act 1968 subsumes the rifle exemption at Section 16 of the Firearms Act 1968. New Section 11A allows a non-certificate holder to borrow a rifle and use it in the presence of a certificate holder on private premises. The following criteria must be met • The borrower of a rifle must be aged 17 or older. • The lender must be aged 18 or older and have a certificate in respect of the rifle. • The borrower must be in the presence of the lender i.e. in sight and earshot. • The use of a rifle must comply with any conditions on the certificate held in respect of that rifle. • The purpose of the loan is only for hunting animals, shooting game or vermin or shooting artificial targets. • The lender must be; a) a person who has the right to allow others to enter the premises for the purpose of hunting animals or shooting game or vermin, or b) a person authorised by them in writing. Notes: 1. Written permission (b) is a new requirement and must be obtained prior to shooting. Verbal permission is no longer permitted. 2. The exemption does not extend to other types of Section 1 firearms. 3. Section 57(4) of the 1968 Act defines “premises” as including any land. The foreshore is land, however it is predominately Crown or Duchy owned but some for example, is owned or leased by private individuals, local authorities or other groups. The rifle exemption may only be utilised on foreshore in England and Wales where the lender is an owner/occupier/lease holder who maintains the shooting rights. In the case of a lease, the lease must allow the use of rifles. Crown leases do not allow the use of rifles. In England and Wales the foreshore is that part of the seashore which is more often than not covered by the flux and reflux of the four ordinary tides occurring midway between springs and neaps. In Scotland there is a general right to recreation on the foreshore (except on Orkney and Shetland). This includes the shooting of wildfowl (using a shotgun only) and where the right has not been taken away by statute, e.g. nature reserves. Accordingly the public may not use the foreshore to use or lend rifles. In Scotland the foreshore is the area of land between the high and low water marks of ordinary spring tides.

  8. I think can use each other's firearms on a Home Office approved shooting range ?
  9. They look very good. Don't be tempted, as I was to use a GoPro because field of view is too wide even on the narrow setting. I could hardly see the clay in the video. But shotkam is made for the job
  10. just noticed many of the links on the BASC website regarding pigeon shooting are dead URL's, try for yourself: https://basc.org.uk/?s=wood%20pigeon%20shooting its back up now. my bad
  11. also was made aware of this offer: http://www.shooting.sh/new/uk-syndicate-membership/ £350 for year seems reasonable. But nearest place to shoot is 2-3 hours way
  12. Hi just wonder has anyone ever used these people/website for pigeon shooting: http://www.woodpigeonhunting.com/about-us I think its connected in some way to a website called http://shooting.sh/ many thanks in advance, Iain
  13. i've used google to list some of the local farms to maybe try and visit in the week but only a few on the list are suitable : https://www.google.co.uk/maps/search/farm/@52.3755754,-2.3919676,30481m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1
  14. I don't want something for nothing who said I did ? Finding out who runs the syndicates is very difficult.
  15. I've been looking for a permission for 3 years with no luck. Very few farmers or land owners seem to be able to even offer permissions for fear of up setting their paid syndicates. It seems like a closed shop to me run by syndicates. Its hard too see how the sport can survive in its current state. I wouldn't be surprised if permissions start commanding large fees, and the sport will go the same way as game shooting.
  16. 3 years on and never did find a permission. The farmers that did allow shooting already had syndicates. Almost seems like a closed shop.
  17. your more than welcome to meet me there. I shoot most Sunday's and some Tuesday's. Just send me a message on here & we can arrange it.
  18. Hi, yes I shoot mainly at Kinver one of may favorite places to shoot, I going to this evening after work.
