  1. I find Royal Mail a bit flaky these days, but Best Fittings are the business ...
  2. Same here. Tidied up a few in January, not seen or heard a thing for 6 weeks since. What's happening?

    Laws

    Strange how new members pop up from time to time on shooting forums, ask similar questions, and then disappear. Would it be against the law to trap them, and club them to death with a Chris Packham approved vegan cucumber do you think?
  4. Hahaha. Thanks Bruno, you really did make me laugh out loud.
  5. Thanks for that chaps. It’s all a bit of a minefield. I think I read somewhere you can only use the exemption during the nesting season. Which means shooting magpies when they will have chicks left to starve in the nest, when instead you could more humanely dispatch them earlier. None of it makes much sense does it?
  6. I would like that to be true, but after a lot of searching I cannot find a legal basis for that, and would be grateful if you could help me on that one, Mice! I did find though that the RSPB have starlings on the Red List. Sometimes I think I must be going nuts.
  7. Moving a cylinder of air from indoors at 20C and 180 bar to minus 5C outdoors will reduce the pressure in the cylinder to 165 bar. The regulated pressure will not be changed by the low temperature of the air in the cylinder. The cold may affect working parts in some other way, of course, and not just on the gun 🙂
  8. Nice one. I was sitting round the table joining in the laughter. Great fun, and some tasty guns

    Cronos

    Found these work well enough. Give the same figures as Combro, Skan, and FX in my experience. Build quality leaves a lot to be desired, but if you manage to shoot it up, as many do with their chronos, then at 27 quid you won’t be sobbing in your beer https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Muzzle-Speed-Meter-Velocimetry-Anemometer-Velocity-Valence-Tester-with-Tripod/233006552634?hash=item364045d63a:g:9wwAAOSwmUFb4WL6
  10. I would personally say that the flaff of single shot loading made one take more time and care on the shot, and at the same time one tended to opt for single shot loading when one wanted to be more careful on a shot I have shot the Steyr Pro X semi auto and it is just as accurate shooting from a mag as a Steyr single shot if you take your time But of course it's such fun that you don't
  11. I bought an Eyoyo online for sub £60. No bells and whistles but checks out against a tape and more expensive stuff.
  12. The OP, an experienced and knowledgeable man, posed a simple question and asked that the thread remained focussed on first hand experience and avoided anecdotal stuff. The simple answer to the question appears to be no. Me too. No.
  13. Well, after waiting 5 months with no end in sight, and being told by the UK distributor ASI, maybe another 8-12 weeks who knows, in very much a who cares tone, I cancelled the order. So, sorry guys, I will not be reviewing the FX Dreamline Lite, or any other FX airgun come to that. I can only say it lived up to its name. It was a dream as light as air.
  14. Why would it be crass to ask him? Don't get me wrong - I would love to shoot pigeons in my own garden. I have more than enough of the things. I also have neighbours who feed the foxes. Know what I'm saying?
