I understood they were bundled up and given to a local RFD to sort through and dispose of. To time consuming for the local FDs. Stand to be corrected of course if any one know differently. FB

Done.

Received tonight from my club secretary. No indication why the cartridge is deemed unsafe? For all those using MoD ranges. The MoD have said that with IMMEDIATE effect, the use of 6.5mm Creedmoor ammunition in no longer permitted. This change impacts all clubs shooting on military ranges. The email from the MoD Deputy Safety Officer stated: "Defense Equipment & Support have produced data at the request of Infantry Trials & Development Unit (ITDU) for 6.5mm Creedmoor ammunition. The data given shows this ammunition type to be unsafe and have refused use of it for the military unit. It is this reason; we cannot allow any other range users to utilise the ammunition, when it has been deemed unsafe for use on SPTA fixed ranges for Trial Units." Although Bisley is effectively an MoD range operating under MoD rules we haven't had any notification if this ban extends to Bisley, It is recommended you check for the latest status with when booking any NRA Bisley ranges.

I can still remember the various American news programmes that morning (and never shown again) interviewing the 1`st responder fire fighters and them saying (and reporting to their Chiefs via their radios) that they were hearing explosions from the upper levels and also in the lower foye/lounge areas. Well below the impact sites. Loads of questions about the whole tragic scenario which have been brushed under the carpet. My own personal view, which I wont respond to, is that it was a false flag mission to get the American public on side to go to war against Saddam. They were vehemently against it but were soon brought on side after this event and lap dog BLiar was rapidly engaged to try and help get the UN resolution that B-sh needed to go to war.

Strangely enough I have just put on my desk 2 dvds "Confronting the Evidence" and "Loose Change" both calling for reinvestigation of the events leading up to and the aftermath, of evidence that seemed to be supressed or ignored. A massive tragedy for so many. Thousands affected well beyond the twin towers. FB

Paunch in field on shooting, finish cleaning at home, remove "lucky rabbits feet", head and tail. Skin and portion. Pop into frying pan to seal the portions then into slow cooker with a selection of root veggies. and gravy mix Add half a mug of Pernod or similar aniseed spirit and slow cook for about 6 hours. When serving add some greens and potatoes of choice. Fabulous grub.

Make plum wine, used to do it a lot years ago, even using tinned fruit. Tinned can be easier and cheaper as its already got loads of sugar in it. FB

My club has a form (Required by the Home Office) to be completed and returned to the club secretary at least a week before the visit of a guest or visitor with their name, address, DofB, and address (all address`s less than 5 years) name of sponsoring member and how known to the full member. Guest has to sign the form with the declaration that they are not prohibited under Section 21 of the firearms act. This form is then submitted to the local firearms dept for their scrutiny and CR checks after which they will inform the club secretary if the visit may go ahead! My guess is he has no chance of even getting onto a clubs premises, even if an appeal is under way as there would be no judgement at that time. FB

The way indiscriminate use of air weapons is going, we will end up having to have licenses as they now do in Scotland with all the additional problems that that will bring. More use of Police resources and time to register them all as firearms, logging on a computer system and issuing paperwork etc. Then how many people will come forward to get them registered (only the law abiding of course) the toe rags will just carry on as before as there will be no one to enforce it, which after all is the biggest problem in this country, so many laws (which only the law abiding are trying to adhere to) those that get caught, well..................................! does the justice fit the crime?

Sadly it does cost those of us south of Hadrian's wall £41 billion pounds a year with an extra 2.4 billion the last three fiscal years because of Covid etc. This money is sent under the Barnett agreement to all the nations. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/latest-figures-detail-uk-governments-record-funding-of-41-billion-a-year-for-the-scottish-government FB

Thank you. FB

Interesting group results. Not used Vit 160 myself. What was the bullet type and weight please. FB

This is a very tragic incident for all concerned and we will have to await a proper investigation to take place and report. l am no expert on facial or any other injuries, not being medically trained, but l have to ask the question about the facial injuries of that unfortunate police officer with a broken nose and two black eyes, why has she not got bloodshot eyes, swelling or broken veins in her eyes? No red,black or yellowing from the brusing. Not trying to court controvosey here, but just asking the question.

My local Poundland sells the Pukka pies in the frozen cabinet, 2 for £2. I love the steak and kidney ones, yummie. Local chippie sells them £4.50 each, l know everyone has to make a living, but Poundland aren't selling them for a loss are they! FB

I have been reading this thread with interest and it seems to me that the real reason for the start of this "Riot" is because a number of Roma children were removed by Social services (with the help of Police protection) to "A place of safety" Nobody seems to want to address the reason why these children had to be removed from perceived danger by social services. These matters take a lot of soul searching by the authorities as they really dont want to remove children from their parents. Nothing to do with race, religion left or right, legal or illegal, just keeping children safe. Anybody have an answer as to why they were removed? Maybe I am being a bit naive but the media is quite happily showing us all sorts of riot pictures with (as usual) their own slant on the situation as bad news sells copy. FB
