Stealth Stalker Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 I popped in to my local gun shop today to get my air rifle re charged, normally £1.50. Saw a nice little Berreta semi auto 302 in the gun rack up for £350 I haggled him down to £300 & bought it. He let me off the £1.50 Sssshhh don't tell the Mrs SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catamong Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Yes, that's the downside - I used to shoot a 5 shot Remmy 1100, and used to burn up loads of shells, Bob B wept when I got rid of it and switched to an OU..!! Cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead-Eyed Duck Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 As the wife always says to me "It was a shame to leave it on the rack". Altho' I'm pretty sure that she did not mean gun rack. Excellent retail therapy Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catamong Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Yes, only ever managed that twice..!! I remember once sat in a bale hide on our patch in the middle of Winter, Pigeons were streaming in from all points of the compass as there was no other rape in the area, when **** me, my extractor claw broke, net result was gun would not cycle. Luckily I had a spare, but it took me 10 minutes to strip it down and replace it, whilst birds were literally landing on top of the hide..!! Finished up with 148, could have broken the 150 if that malfunction hadn't ocurred..!! Cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
