Franchi Harrier Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I've seen one or two advertisements for the above and having being new to the sport don't know if this is something similar to the Midlands Game Fair (but on a smaller scale)? Anyone been previously? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAT Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) Hi, reading posts above, there are actually two shows mentioned:- 1 - Robin Hood Game fair - 13th/14th October 2012 at Newark showground. More of a family day out with a few guns etc. 2 - British Shooting Show - 9th Feb, 2013, which this year (2012) was at Newark but for next year will be at Stoneleigh. All guns.

secretagentmole Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) I went last year 20 min all done it was **** with no guns at all Deershooter I went last year, there were a few guns, bought a decent pair of boots cheap though. It was well overpriced, bog all to do with guns/ammo/shooting other than a clay pigeon and laser clay shooting thing. Not worth the money, save your cash and wait for the national gun show in February! Edited September 25, 2012 by secretagentmole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deershooter Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 I was talking about real guns not Airguns there was no stands with rimfire ,center fire or shot guns Deershooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) There was one stand with rim fires (buried in the airguns strangely enough) and they had ammo too! By the way an air rifle is a real gun, some have more power than your .22 rim fire! Edited September 25, 2012 by secretagentmole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way an air rifle is a real gun, some have more power than your .22 rim fire! not being funnt chap but no air rifle has more power than a .22lr even subs hears the math .1150*1150*40 / 450240=117.492ft/lbs . and yes game fair is at newark and the shooting show has changed venue NEXT YEAR Edited September 25, 2012 by fruitloop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filzee Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 there was a stall selling both rimfires and cenerfire rifles and shotguns in the building at the back of the ground. wasn't the greatest show but never is there its only ever a big clothing sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul1966 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 went yesterday, a family of ####'s tried to sneak in a side gate without paying but got caught by security, not a bad show, seemed to be a lot there for dogs. will definitely go again.
