BigDave15 Posted July 14, 2003 Report Share Posted July 14, 2003 Well I’m off to Spain tomorrow night my mum and dad have just brought a house out there we are doing it up (We are not moving but using it like a second home!) Any way dad went out there a month or to ago to buy the house and he got invited boar hunting so I’m looking forward to going out there and seeing what the Spanish get up to, before the harvest starts then dads allowed no time off and I’m usually helping him. Also I don’t think hand guns are banned out there so hopefully I can have a bash at some handgun shooting. Have any of you ever gone on a hunting/Shooing trip in Spain what’s it like? :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 I've never done any hunting over there but it sounds like you will have some fun Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 Good Luck Dave, You are one of so many people that i've hear'ed of recently who are contemplating moving to Spain or France to escape the rat race in the UK. Still i'm glad that so many are going because it will make more room for all of the Kosovan's, Afghani's, Iraqi's and all of the other unfortunates that are now coming over in droves to feed of our generous welfare system. I've never shot in Spain, but I know some that have, and my advice is always wear pellet proof glasses, as safety standards are not up to those in the UK...!!!

MAJ Posted July 19, 2003 Report Share Posted July 19, 2003 The safety standards in France leave a little to be desired as well. We generally take our holiday in southern France (free use of brother in laws villa) and a few of the locals go out after the wild boar. You've never seen such a ragged-***** collection of neer-do-wells in your life. I don't know what the legal requirement is calibre wise, but these guys seem to arm themselves with anything that comes to hand. Having said that, they have a great old time.
