SNS Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 Am considering buying one to shoot a few clays in our paddock. I like the look of the GDK Trading seated one with two arms & 3/4 cocking. Anyone got one/ used one and have a view as to how good ? I won't use it often I suspect but thought may be a laugh for me and the Mrs to shoot a few clays during the summer whilst waiting for the season to start Many thanks in anticipation.....

eastdevon Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 Yea have one myself and so far has been used a hell of a lot!! Myself and mates have a right laugh when both arms are loaded up with a stacked pair of mini's firing them up and over a solid hedge towards the other three waiting!! So funny hearing all the gun fire and then the swearing for missing them lol!! I'm my eyes it a great trap for not much money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 (edited) Got an old one off eBay works well but it's lethal if you get your finger in the wrong place! Edited May 14, 2017 by Wingman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNS Posted May 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Thanks all - I shall have a look at the Bowman too and then get one ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-dot Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Ebay & Gumtree are worth keeping an eye on. I've seen unloved Bowmans for little money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-dot Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 There is a Bowman No2 as new on Gumtree but it is without the matching No2 seat and frame. Its on at an optimistic £175 but as always it may be open to offers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyeruk Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 I had the 3/4 self cocking trap from GDK. Great little trap. It never let me down over hundreds of clays. Only sold it on as not really doing clays anymore and I can't afford to have things hanging around that I'm not using.I have to finance this very addictive sport the best I can.
