crankfrank Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 I feel its about time I said hello. I have asked a few questions and been gifted some great replys, seems a top friendly forum. Im Craig im 30 and from Leicester. I have played with air rifles since I was a kid but havnt had one since I sold my old webley about 7 years ago. Until I dug an old noddy one out from the back of my old mans shed. Anyhow I went beating with a friend from my local sports and social club the last day of the season this year, and I had a brilliant day out. Good long walk in nice scenery, lunch a brace of pheasants and £15, well that was me hooked. As much as I love summer I cant wait till september gets here. So it got me trawling a lot of websites for more info basc, nobs etc. and I came across here as I was looking for info on rabbiting, I love rabbit and pigeon to eat but always buy from off the market. So now I am going to get some practice in on targets and when I am upto scratch (and with decent rifle) Ill walk to the farms round my way and see if I can get some permission to off a few. Cant wait fot that game paella cooked with my own catch. Also I am a keen fisherman, have been out today with my mate and gave him a beating. We fished bread on the top with controler floats I had four fish he had three, only went for a couple of hours but was lovely in the sun I have some cracking panda eyes to prove. Anyhow I shall leave you all in peace (have had a few beers sorry) and thanks everyone. Craig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 Welcome Craig, there are quite a few members here that go beating, some fishermen and a lively Airgunners section. More than enough to keep you busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
