codit75 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Good evening all, its shopping time. I have been successful in gaining my SGC. Ive had some clay lessons, and am now ready to buy my first gun, i have sold one of my airguns, which we give me £400 to spend on a second hand gun.

codit75 Posted October 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Try lots before you settle on your final choice. Thanks for the advice, do you mean shoulder as many as i ca. Ive just been down my local RFD and they have a nice Lamber sporter, up for sale, it felt right. Ive not parted with the cash yet.

garygreengrass Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Welcome, handle as many as you can and if it feels right ask the person selling if it fits ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerboy Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Try as many as you can at your local clay ground, most of us are nice people and will let you have a go or two. Do not buy because they look nice, it is how they fit and feel, and always take someone who knows what they are talking about with you, maybe even your coach.

The Lamber does feel right, im going back on Saturday with an experienced friend to have another look at it, and also try some others out before i part with the cash. Ive only ever been to Broomhils, do you know of any other good grounds in Hertfordshire. Thanks for all the welcomes everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
