Bang 666 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hello all Last Sunday I went to shoot over some pease, I left the house at about 09.30 got to the field for 10.00, it was all looking good I walked 15 to 20 pigeon of the field they went to the trees near bye, so I set my hide and deeks up, it took about 25 min till thefirst pigeon dropped into the deeks I watched it in then took the 1st shot with the semi auto I missed so went to take the 2nd shot and the gun jammed so I cleared the chamber and watched the next pigeon in 1st shot miss then gun jammed this went on for my hole day out, it should of been a good sized bag but I walked of the field with my 1st 0. It was still nice being out and getting plenty of pigeon dropping in just wish my shooting hadn't let me down, o well there is always next time out and I will take my s/s with me lol.

Cranfield Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Semi autos like to be cleaned more often than other types of guns. Something that I often forget when shooting almost every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 There is also the fact that some semi auto's will only recycle if you are using 70mm carts and they jam with the 65mm ones happened to me.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
