brazzy Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hi, Does anyone know if this is still running please? From what i've heard, this is located somewhere near the FA Football HQ and the Vehicle Museum on Thurston Road Leyland. It's listed as a shooting club on many sites, although the phone number just rings out and there isn't an email address. Norman Livesey seems to be the contact but cant get hold of him. As I live in Leyland, i was thinking of heading down there to find it and have a chat with the guys as to joining... but would need to know the nights the club is open I'm looking for a club to join so i can shoot .22LR and start my firearms process. Any info on this club would be appreciated. Thanks Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brazzy Posted January 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 I've managed to get an email address from the kind people at NSRA. I've emailed him to see what the crack is. Will advise if i get a reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Good stuff, I hadn't looked at this section before so timed it right 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brazzy Posted January 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 I went for a walk down there last night but couldnt see an entrance etc... however, i managed to find someone who's dad shoots there apparently. According to him, you have to go into the grounds of the football pitch, and there is a slight dip where a lit doorway is. That's where you go in. Wednesday nights is for new members to look round. I'll have another wander next wed to see if i can get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
