Mungler Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Airguns for me. Underlever BSA Airsporter. However, this is not a trip down memory lane for everyone to list the airguns they first owned. Think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il cacciatore Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Airguns. Some sort of crossman that you had to pump 10 times or more each shot. Only targets with that one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I had a single barrelled .410 when I was 10, a .177 Diana Original Mk3 air rifle for passing the 11 plus and a single barrel 12 bore 6 months later. Both shotguns were free and given to me as very old, secondhand weapons, but both worked well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Airguns for me, About 30years ago with a BSA Meteor. Knoking match boxes over in my Dad's garage. It went downhill from there. Cheers Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the pelt man Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Airguns for me. Underlever BSA Airsporter. However, this is not a trip down memory lane for everyone to list the airguns they first owned. Think about it. As above, still have mine. I took of the open sights & put on scopes. I STILL WOULD HAVE GOT MYSELF A AIR RIFLE EVEN IF I NEEDED A LICENSE. PELTMAN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted September 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 I am assuming that it was bought for you - as a present? "Here son I have a surprise for you, but first fill out this airgun licensing application form first, get yourself some photo ID, I'll book in the FAO for a visit next month, you smash your piggy bank for the £50 application fee and then in about 3 months you can have your gun...". It'll be magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Airgun - BSA Meteor, still in the family, my Dad uses it now. Then a gap of about 10 years when drink/girls/cars were more of a priority, and then back with Shotgun as my mates all went clay shooting and pheasant shooting and it looked like a good craic. Beleive it or not I only applied for FAC as I just wanted to get the piece of paper before it got any more difficult to get one (bit like motorbike tests) and then I went stalking, and now I haven't got any spare money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
