Mentalmac Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 You'll find Matt that there is a lot of banter on here, that's the part of being on a forum with so many members from mechanics to lords... You'll find that taking us all with a pinch of salt is the best way and there is a LOT of great advice to be had on here, I couldn't have got this far without this lot on here. Just always be mindful of the chaos caused on here if you post a pic with anything dangerous in it, I.e unbroken shotgun, trigger on finger etc... But it's because a lot on here have seen some bad things happen and are very passionate and it will help you in the long run. We are a good bunch really, just keep at it. Good luck with the new airguns and hope you start getting good groupings soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 Fair enuff geez Taken in the manner it was meant; I was only jesting. 'Born and bred Londoner' was the phrase his wife used when I bumped into her in the street some days later. She was laughing about our tiff and said he still couldn't get over the fact he can't buy fuel for his car on Sunday in our town, and that the nearest Vue cinema is 32 miles away as is a decent Italian restaurant.

Zenduri Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) I have a double bed fouton with back up against back fence with a breakfast bar table lent over it at a down ward angle behind the targets (paper SMK and a rat with a nock down and reload and then 3 spinny zombie targets, then i have pillows with roses lid tin lent up behind the wooden between the wood and the thick cushians (tight thick material not some cheap *lidle pillow* haha) then the back of the sofa.. which no bulllet has yet made it two.. and to stop the pellets going anywhere side protectors and thick bedsheets all across side of garden, nothing gets out the garden not a chance.. police even said i obviously was trying to be safe they couldnt fault that.! Regards Matt. Sorry but your garden sounds like an absolute mess! You mau be within the law but socially in this instance it may not be the best interest for you and your future to keep shooting at the contents of a skip in your garden.

onatangent Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 read his post and see why it is currently like it and stop being a **** by berating people. Not big or clever. I bet if I came to your house it would be rubbish by my standards. Sorry but your garden sounds like an absolute mess!

evo Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 after an interesting read and some funny replies I can really only see you losing out, if you want my advice, then here it is, (you don't have to adhere to it but if you do then all the better) 1st,, buy a decent set of headphone to listen to your music WHY ? because you might not know this but by the sounds of what YOU are saying you are a neighbour from HELL, playing music loud at all times of the day, HEADPHONES will instantly make you a more appreciable neighbour,,, 2nd, buy a proper target holder/pellet catcher,Take all those sheets down out of your back garden,,WHY ? because it sounds like you are living like a tramp, your garden must look a right tip with sofas and blankets all over the place,you do not need anything else other than a target holder/pellet catcher, 3rd,,,, Respect all your neighbours or at leat show them respect even if they don't show you any,,at least then they will have nothing to slander you for, and last but not least ,,,refrain from asking your neighbour to get in the front,,this sounds to me( your offering him for a fight in the front),always speak to them in a soft calm voice and NEVER get into a heated argument with them as this will only add to your problems, if you do the above 4 things and also join a local air rifle club then the world is your oyster,, neglect what I have said and you deserve everything you get because from what YOU have stated yourself you sound like a right neighbour from HELL, even if you are a genuinely nice guy good luck with it atb Evo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy RV Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 The fact of the matter is your neighbors aren't going to change and will continue to call the police, who will continue to visit you! Your options are; Join a club Accept that your neighbors don't like you shooting and the police will continue to visit you Give up shooting It's as simple as that.

Gordon R Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Sadly, I think Andy is correct. Evo has a point or three. It might be poor wording, but asking someone to speak to them elsewhere is pushing your luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

byjovecarruthers Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I'd probably shoot in my back garden too. It's just that can't find the time with the hours I work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayes Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Find yourself a local range or gun club and let things cool down, neighbours can be a pain in the bum because they automatically think we are shooting birds etc. anyway winters on its way so when they are stuck in the house get back out and shoot the greys and rats.
