maverick 16 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Biaikal, £65 would get you a good clean example or if you want something Quintessentially English what about a Greener with the Martini action bags of fun, some good examples about" yer pays yer money yer takes yer pick".

oldypigeonpopper Posted November 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 Why a single may I ask? hello, just thought it maybe better than using my semi auto for the odd shot at vermin etc, and lighter than most shotties and cost, i did have a coey and greener and a aya i think when i started shooting, i see a investarm on gun trader £150 but the gun shop did not bother reply email. when i most go shooting i have 2 farms to shoot on that day and that is taking a .22 PCP/ .22 LR to.

Stonepark Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 If you see one, a hushpower baikal will give a great advantage for odd shots at vermin (crows and farm yards), they don't expect to be shot when they can't hear any other bangs.

Have seen w&s 12bore with 3inch chamber ( eg Paul Edwards Gunsmith) but Im pretty sure 50g of lead through that would make your eyes water, sure the 20 would be very light (nice though) just checked gunsmith, may be sold Edited December 2, 2015 by islandgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
