HDAV Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Just wanted to let everyone know what first class service i got from the gun shop rugby and Barby sporting ground (what a top class venue, they have a full bar and restaurant!) Thanks to Martin in the shop and Gordon at the ground! I went to try some guns for fit and ended up with a one to one lesson! Walked away with a gun costing twice my budget! Recommend anyone within an hour or 2 of rugby (easy to get to from M6) goes and gives it a try open Wednesday and Saturday for shooting at the moment but undergoing upgrades for more more opening days and open till late in the summer evenings (if only i lived closer!) http://barbysporting.sports.officelive.com/default.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin in the shop will 'go the extra mile too' to make sure everthing is right. Funny about the gun budget - I went in thinking £1.5k should cover it and spent £2.5k instead....

onlyme Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 good targets (towers on compac and sporting) there that can sort the men from the boys ! very very professional also, top bunch , and the breakfasts aint half bad either , shooting on such a full stomach can be a pain in the nicest way though! top marks most definately worth the journey, luckily for me i have a permission dead opposite so i can add to my clay day with some decoying and rabbiting:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
