Why didn't you invite BASC to your AGM. this can be arranged. then all questions can be answered transparently .

interesting what did you need hep with ?

which was unacceptable and detrimental to the majority of its membership Quite a bold statement, I am interested to know how you know this? Just what damaging agenda do you think is being pushed ? Fiddled compulsory membership ? you are funny, you do not wild fowling clubs have a choice to be members or not?

do you have any images please

BASC ? when did BASC call for a lead ban ? https://basc.org.uk/an-update-on-the-five-year-transition-towards-sustainable-ammunition/ if you look at that link you will see that there are a number of organisation supporting a transition away from lead shot.

that's an old bill of 2022 - not one for this autumn

Its always amuses me how many users here comment on BASC saying what they are doing is wrong, and yet are not members, the ironic thing is that all of those non members will still reap the rewards of the work undertaken by BASC. BASC represent all shooting, and they act for all shooters, a few examples of this are; 1, Pigeon shooting, Back in 2020 when the GL was revoked, BASC got hem turned around and now we are all still using this licence to control woodpigeons. 2, Wildfowling, BASC support many clubs and thousands of members to retain consent allowing them to go wildfowling 3, Young shots and Ladies days - BASC lead the way in providing opportunities for literally thousands of people introducing the to shooting each year. 4, BASC have challenged the restrictions/ban on the use of lead ammunition for all outdoor shooting presented by the HSE. Yes of course they represent game shooting and game shooters, of course this will need support and for all organisations to act when needed, that is why you see the NGO, BGA, CA, CLA, GWCT all raising awareness to the issues around GL43. I'm not quite sure why you think 22lr and airguing will disappear? and when will the price of cartridges double ? and more to the point why ? The result of C19 is that there are significant delays in licensing across the country, then with the ongoing issues on Devon and Cornwall new guidance was issued meaning all departments had to undertake medical verifications this is why you see cert number declining over the last couple of years.

Are you a BASC member ? BASC take legal action against DEFRA https://basc.org.uk/basc-to-commence-legal-challenge-against-defra/

And yet, you, the chairman of a wildfowling club, disaffiliated from BASC still ask BASC ....how ironic....

if that were the case only Belgium brownings are real brownings.. forget those Japanese things...🤪

Can anyone tell me the difference between a ‘big bag’ day and an average bag day? Yes, There is no difference. all are good, if done well and inline with best practice.

Dave's latest video of hm using game bores steel shot an bismuth... he's clearly impressed and some great shooting !

The new card is a peel-able piece of card from the letter. The purpose is moving away from single use plastic. I superglued it to the front of my old card .. fits perfect and saves me signing the back again 😜

Eat them? Donate them to country food trust Give them to your neighbours/ family ?

Hi All, Looking for a Mossberg 20g hushpower (pump), please let me know if you have one for sale Best wishes Terry

you wouldn't shoot any cartridge that was submerged for 24 hours,... Rain will not get into the cartridges they are plaswelded .. no issue. even in the test they were far better than they thought they would be.. looks like you will be using bismuth ...

shine on decoys is not an issue, use them as they are birds will come close enough to shoot, when you have a few dead ones swap them for the decoys... and leave out deads

The info you are referring to seems to be regarding shooting during lockdown. You can roost shoot pigeon as preventative measures. There was a piece in the latest BASC magazine on this "eastern page" Best wishes

So no answer to any of the points then ? As i expected.

And, What about the Ban that will inevitably happen when people do not change voluntarily? What about the perception of people outside the shooting community ? What about the wildlife that will continue to ingest the lead and die ? that right you don't care about any of that or the future of shooting... all you care about is going against BASC even though it was all 9 major organisations that made the statement...

Was it not BASC who sorted out the GLs when they were removed ? or have you forgotten that so quickly ? they have also ensured the current ones are workable.

No Legal cover will take up any case if you are breaking the law . Insurance companies use any excuse not to fight cases, thats a fact .

Loved the video, ignore the comment above someone cannot give a review if they do not watch the video . The intro is fine, if people do not want to watch it they can skip forwards. The information on the video itself is good, well delivered and understandable. keep making the videos and keep posting them .

BASC & Co opened for a 5 year transition away form lead & single use plastics for All love quarry. The EU ban that could be relevant to us in the UK as we adopt much of this legislation is making for an outright ban by the end of 2021 It also makes it a criminal offence to have lead on your person near a wetland, a wetland is not defined so could be a puddle of water.
