Gordon R Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Derek Lee. Very respected shop and thoroughly decent people to deal with. http://www.derekleegunsmiths.com/store/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 As Gordon says, Derek Lee is good, other than that you have Whittlesey Gun shop and Bradshaw's at Perio Mill near Fotheringay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) As Gordon says, Derek Lee is good, other than that you have Whittlesey Gun shop and Bradshaw's at Perio Mill near Fotheringay. I wouldn't want to buy my cartridges from Whittlesey on a regular basis. Mr Shipman knows how to charge.

Big Mat Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 If you are after guns, then Elderkins in Spalding. They treat you the same whether you spend £100 or £10,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triumphant59 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 If you are after guns, then Elderkins in Spalding. They treat you the same whether you spend £100 or £10,000 I second this, Bill Elderkin is a great guy and as stated everyone is treated the same whether they are spending £10000 or £100.

I bought a £145 Viceroy side by side 12 bore from them, it was choked quite tight and i asked how much to open it. Billy replied with "nothing". Top shop in my opinion.

GingerCat Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 First gun from elderkin, top shop, others should aim to be half as good and they would do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesterse Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 There is a new gun shop in Sleaford. As stated previously the best place for cartridges is Guns and Tackle at Whaplode, they also have a small selection of guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ttfjlc Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Nice selection not to far from bourne, elderkins are very well respected, new shop in sleaford is called range and country, they're currently moving next door to a bigger premises so must be doing something right and guns & tackle at whaplode are good for cartridges.

motty Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Don't you get the special rate? Hmm. Not sure what that means...... I have done a few deals with him before, got powder cheaper etc. But his listed prices are generally high for shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
