powderhorn Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 Hello, I am a new member so I thought that I should introduce myself. I am a retired engineer and live in Cheshire near the Welsh border and have been shooting about 25 years having come into the sport a bit later in years that most. My shooting started on clays but I am now very much into shooting antique muzzleloading shotguns using black powder and I also do a certain amount of restoration work on this type of gun. I enjoy helping out on the "Have-a-go" muzzleloading stand at various Game & Country Fairs in the area from the Midlands up to Yorkshire. It's great to see the public enjoying the Big Bang followed by the Big Grin. If any of you have ever visited these "Have-a-go" stands then you might know me as the Brummie with the grey beard and glasses. I am however looking to broaden my shooting interests as I am thinking of getting into airgunning (PCP guns) so I shall be looking for advice in the near future. I would welcome contact from any members with similar interests who live in my area and I look forward to chatting to you all. Regards Derek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
