  1. Nice job. For what they are they are cracking little pistols. Ive got one in .177 too and had it for probably 15years. It shoots true and accurate for what it is, its fairly sturdy anf weighted about right for me. I really want to make some grips for it or maybe the shoulder stock further down the line. Ive found mone like accupells but i get a better barrel fit and accuracy with JSB exacts, you have to seat the pellet with a noticeable bump as its seated but it loves them. I was curious about ita output last week so ran it over the clubs chrono and its pushing a very consistant 2.8ftlbs with JSBs
  2. Updated the OP, it wasn't me adjusting it and it was only used by me when under the legal limit. The OP was a bit unclear.
  3. Just a quick question as im looking to buy an Airarms S410 from someone and its pre anti tamper with a grub screw to adjust the power. It was shown to me as being adjustable from about 4ft lbs to 14ft lbs via the grub screw and dialed back to 11 ft lbs for me to try. Am i legally ok with it if its dialed back to 11ftlbs so under the legal limit and kept there or does the fact it has the ability to shoot over the legal limit mean its illegal for non fac holders? Edited to clarify and be more specific
  4. https://www.gunspares.co.uk/products/24294/Hornet/ There you go
  5. Tw chambers or john knibbs is generally where i go for airgun spares, google those and you will find them
  6. One for David. Doesnt the inclusion of provisions to class anything firing 1 joule or above as a firearm pave the way for The UK to bring in the licensing of all air weapons just like the dozy Scotts? If so im against this
  7. In my opinion, whilst you are within the law and it is your right to do as you did.....you handled that **** poorly. She is obviously not Anti as she has never complained in 5 years about you shooting but when she made that request, albeit inconvenient and unneccesary you should have just ackowledged her, advised it was safe and why and then said you understand her concerns albeit unfounded and just packed up and been polite and civil. Instead you've probably just created an anti, potentially caused yourself future grief and come accross as quite hostile. Could have dealt with the situation a lot better IMO
  8. As per the title, just looking to see whats available, if anything. Ill be putting in for my Fac/SGC soon and im after something with a 4-5 capacity, ideally with an internal ammo safe but not too fussed if it doesnt have one. Looking at Nottingham or close surrounding area, can you post up dimensions and photo if possible please inc price.
  9. Ill have a look in the brass bin at one of the ranges i go to as they throw all kinds of knackered brass in there among the tonnes of .22lr brass. No promises but ill see what i can find. I know there is some non 22lr, .22 brass in there but no idea what
  10. It's rated for everything up to but excluding .50cal and it wasnt me shooting Lapua but another person on another night
  11. Haha no, but some people like to whine about minor things at the range
  12. Looking for an answer to this problem and I'm sure maybe only a sparky may be able to answer this. So today I was down the range and the club chairman announced he was going to conduct an experiment as there was an issue with one of the floodlights on the right hand wall of the range. Apparently it was reported by another club that shoots there that one of the flood lights was flickering whenever anyone shot out of bay 5 and 6 which was nearest the right hand wall. It happened with .357 and .338 Lapau but not with .22lr. So he brought his .357 Rossi lever action rifle down and we proceeded to take it in turns firing out of bays 5 and 6 and sure enough the light in questions kept flickering. The electrician the club uses went down range, checked the wiring of the light, came back and we fired some more and it happened time and time again. In the end the light was taken down and exchanged with another one which has cured the problem. The natural assumption to this experiement is that the pressure wave from the round going down range is causing the LED spot light to flicker. Can anyone explain how this effects an LED flood light?
  13. Try the BSA owners group, the lads on that forum should be able to tell you or answer any questions

    Smart Meters

    Or maybe this topic and the discussion around and the energy market and suppliers as well as the technology and regulation is something I have been engaged in and aware of for.......... the last 6 years. Maybe i actually have a good understanding ofwhat I'm talking about and understand it better than most but heaven forbid I should be will enough informed. Whilst i understand the subject matter and I can look at things quite objectively around smart meters with an ability to criticize them where appropriate I don't subscribe to the Daily mail reading, tin foil hat wearing ill informed mob that pops up occasionally. Also try to be less insulting and "clever" it makes you like a child in this situation The article heavily cites the US smart meters again, even down to a report it cites towards the end by Brian Krebs. The article also quotes a security expert saying; "There are many diverse reasons for hacking attacks - one of them might be revenge. They can put a business out of business - if I can raise the price of electricity for a business I don't like for three months they might have trouble paying that off." considering the pricing for a meter or customer is not done on the meter itself but in the energy suppliers internal systems you can change the unit price on the meter to £100 a unit but at the supplier side when the bills produced it will still be the correct pence per unit, so this guy whilst having some knowledge is only going at this half-assed with no understanding of the market. The only time the article suggested they are hack-able was relating to smart meters in Puerto Rica in 2009. As we all know Puerto Rica leads the world in technology and data security and there have been no advances in the tech since 2009! Spanish smart meters with inferior security to the UK ones (which the article even ruddy states) Article written by an unaccredited journalist and quoting someone who I can find no reference to outside of this article. The article itself, if you read it, actually discusses appropriate regulation and accountability for energy suppliers when dealing with smart meters and proper security measures for the meters. Kris Ardis is Executive Director for Energy Products at Maxim Integrated. In this first installment of a two-part series, he outlines seven security threats that do NOT involve hacking the network. Kris has a motive — his firm sells solutions to these threats. - American smart meters again by a unknown and unaccredited "media outlet" using discussion and opinion from someone with a VESTED INTEREST to spread and propagate concern about smart meters. Even if i could read the article in full (which i cant because the web page is dead) that summary alone shows bias and again on the subject of inferior American smart meters. I don't wish to continue this as its getting quite tedious and we should agree to disagree but if you want to keep on with this rhetoric I'll keep replying. It might actually surprise you to know I'm extremely critical of energy suppliers and the energy market but when i engage in this topic i try to do so with an informed and reasonable approach. I came into this to poke a bit of jest at some of the conspiracies and unfounded opinions running about, hence the tin foil hat/ daily mail reader comment, but my god i've kicked a hornets nest. If at any point I am wrong and it can be reliable corrected and cited properly i will happily apologize for any incorrect comments, I'm only human after all. but so far i've seen absolutely nothing.

    Smart Meters

    I dont think you know what economy 7 is personally or understand anything of the smart metering matter other than what some anti government US websites can feed you. I shall leave this at that as I am considerably more well informed on the matter than a few blogs from US crazies
