jimdfish Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I am arranging a bit of a competition between my scooter club and our neighbouring club. I usually go to the grouse in hayfield but thought if I can get some gen, we might go here. Do they hire out guns as don't want he bejesus knocking out of mine. Is it friendly etc. any info would be greatly appreciated Jimdfish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I didn't realise it was still running. Shot there hundreds of times - late 1980s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 It was Charlesworth Gun Club even after they moved from their original ground in Charlesworth. What day / time is the new club open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember shooting at the club when it was in Charlesworth before it moved to Old Glossop but cant recall where it was situated , off Coombs Rd perhaps ?
