Tedly47 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 The guy that owns it is a top bloke, he's just got a lot on at the moment with other business interests, just give him a ring first before you go.... I've known him for years and he's always looked after me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) I bought a Beretta there a few years ago. Cheapest Beretta on the planet, with some shells thrown in. The staff didn't seem to be aware of market prices. I have often thought of calling in, when passing, but I haven't seen it open since.

browning123 Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 When Reg Gizi had it I traded two stone of yellow fish for cartridges with him lol what you after J The late Reg was a real character, I remember buying a brand new AYA No 2 off him in the early 70's for £99.00! This was from his previous shop in Aquarium Street. A lot of people disliked Reg due to him being very outspoken, he taught me to shoot clays when I was in my early twenties and I always found him great and he was always respectful to me. In his younger day's he shot clays for Wales and was a very good shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiep Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 I've been in a few times. Bought a Gunmark Kestrel in 20 bore for £100 last year there. A bit shabby, but a good gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bi9johnny Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Old reg wooed the young lady from the hairdressers next door and made her his wife and also coached her to shoot for wales as well as teaching her to fly. He was a proper old chap was Reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalahari Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 I find them very helpful. The opening times that appear next to his web address are not put up by the shop. He is closed all day Mondays. David. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 I bought a shotgun and my first black powder from there. I do hope it stays. Wish I had not made my earlier negative comment. I spoke out of fear more than anything bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
