neil Posted November 1, 2002 Report Share Posted November 1, 2002 I went in to my usual newsagents this afternoon and picked up my two usual magizines,sporting gun and gun mart,took them to the counter and payed for them and then the newsagent asked fertivly "do you want a bag for those"i gave my usual reply "no thanks'and walked out,its never occoured to me before when he says it (every month)but when i buy say an auto trader or a paper or anything else for that matter he never says it.(i've never tried the extensive range of top shelf he stocks mind you 8) )does anyone else get this,i'm goingto ask next month why he says it.

highdowns hunter Posted November 2, 2002 Report Share Posted November 2, 2002 I have noticed that some of the main newsagents in airports do not stock shooting magazines now neither do asda in my neck of the woods, I have put a few complaint forms in to their suggestions boxes but dont seem to be getting anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveman Posted November 2, 2002 Report Share Posted November 2, 2002 neil- i suggest you pick up "Airgun World" and "Airgunner" as well next time. The newsagent's reaction should be interesting. They don't seem to bat an eyelid in Smiths when buying shooting mags. Its interesting Sporting Gun comes through the post in a plain brown envelope- the mags I've had through the post normally come in clear plastic. But they're not anything to do with shooting. Its just plain old crazy political correctness gone mad neil mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game bore Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 Did anyone get an envelope from the Countryside Alliance which was stuck down and had nothing in it? All it had was a tear in the top left hand corner but the envelope was completely empty. Spookeeee. The following week they sent me a load of raffle tickets, so I am a bit puzzled by the empty one or have I just got a dodgy postey? :grumpy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
