rimfire4969 Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 I went about 4 years ago and was very disappointed. I vowed not to go back until it improved considerably, unfortunately I was told it was just as bad last year. Hopefully it has improved and a family day out is better than any day at work, have fun.

Hope you enjoy it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berettadevon Posted March 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Well im happy to report that the day out was a great success, not quite as much there as the last time i was there but none the less a great day.

Therealchucknorris Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Excellent stuff, hope the family enjoyed it too? Glad I didn't go as I've got a cabinet full of shotguns and can't seem to resist a bargain. Try the shooting show in February as well if you haven't been there before - guns galore with more guns to boot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therealchucknorris Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Excellent stuff - my wife approves of your daughter's name by the way - very good taste apparently They were supposed to have a clay coaching line but it was cancelled due to the weather and some of their facilities were brought indoors I believe. Not a true shoot in the traditional sense but an opportunity to show off to some of the coaches I guess B) Happy shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roostshooter1 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Hi guys was just wondering if anybody is popping to the west country game fair next month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimfire4969 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Not been for about 4 years, it's a long way from me and last time I went it was not very good so not been back since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roostshooter1 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Yeah some people say its not brilliant but i only like going for a day out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMcC Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) I didn't go last year because the previous two years it was all cookery, clothing and arts and crafts. I was told last years was the best it's been for a while so may look in this year just in case it has improved.

Spaniel Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Might go but it seems to get less interesting each season I use to enjoy looking around the stalls but they use to have plenty of guns to look at etc The food section is good but I'm sure I moaned about the entrance costs last time for a family of 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonker Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I'll probably go over, only about 15 mile from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumpy22 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 we say every year we wont bother next year as its the same every year. but guess what we will be there all joking aside it is not a bad day out, but if I did not live so close I would just wait for the midland.

roostshooter1 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I aint been myself for 3 years so decided to pop over this year take my 4 year old son over to see the old tractors and birds of prey plus steve beaty is displaying there so there will be some nice peices of hardware on offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blunderbuss Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Been a couple of times. Its OK as the first game fair of the year, but there are better ones. The best in these parts by a country mile is Frampton a bit later on the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triumph_Dave Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Only been once before when it was so-so, about 3 years ago I would agree that the year I went there was not much to see in the way of guns, but lots of country clothing etc..... I should be home for it this year, so will pop over.. I need a new BASC sticker for the car so will visit the stand . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
