philmc Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Hi All, just thought I would make an introduction and say hi I'm Phil, a north Londoner, thought I'd get back into a bit of the sport, starting with a few clays then maybe some pigeon or game shoots once I get my eye in again. First time holding a license but definitely not the first time I've handled a shotgun.... So after being told that its a yes from the FEO an that the license will be in the post, I thought I would pop by a Shop I know and have a look for my first gun, after a little time in the shop and a good old chat about what I can get for the money I have, I left a deposit down on a basically mint Browning O/U, which the same dealer had sold new, seen very little use and lovely to handle... Now comes the waiting game for the postman so I can go pick it up... I hate the waiting game haha!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philmc Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Thanks All, credit to my local team it took just under 2 weeks from sending off the application to getting it in the post. Picked up my Browning and shot about 100 through it at a local clay ground, definitely brought back some memories!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
