Ollie-m Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 hi, im 15 and got my fac about 8 months ago with a .22 air rifle, then recently got a .22LR. i want to do my dsc1 as from what i've read there are no specific age restrictions. i've done alot of stalking and shooting with my dad and two other people (who have both been shooting for 25+ years and done dsc1) so am fairly knowledgable. so in essence im just kind of wandering if anyone knows of anyone who offers dsc that is fairly local to bath/wiltshire. any advice would be appreciated aswell.

Most course suppliers should have one available for none FAC holders etc. S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen-H Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Where are dsc courses held for example does cheshire & other counties have its own venue / rifle range to take the course on & carry out the shooting part of the course?

My son has just done DSC1 and DSC2 without owning a gun, he has been shooting with a friend who owns rifles and used the guide's rifle when doing the practical. His firearm/shotgun cert application has been in for 9 months now (Hampshire) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
