NIGHT SEARCHER Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 What happened to a shop that was in Salford Manchester called Field & gun. I went a few times it was a nice shop and the prices were very good and helpful staff. The prices on there guns were very good I called a few days ago and its closed down. Did they move or go bust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biffo1262 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Yes it went bust which is a shame as he was a very helpful guy. The stock went to Cheshire Gun Rooms. I think he would have done better setting up in Eccles town Centre rather than that small industrial estate with absolutely no passing trade. We do need one in the Eccles, Salford and Irlam areas and if he had been a bit more central he would have done OK especially if he had compreesor as well.

NIGHT SEARCHER Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 That sounds about right i was told that he started up after target sports bolton sold out to cheshier gun room. He worked for Target sports and tried setting up on his own. I would think anybody that opened a gun shop in Manchester should do well has a lot have closed down. I know i would rather shop anywhere than give Manchester Air Guns my money. I go to Arther Branthwaittes or Mc Avoys at Standish both are helpful and a pleasure to shop at but i always come away with a new gun.
