neil smith Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 No problem here guys I guessed Mungler was only making mischief & why I did not rise to the bait with his 4 questions. I did think we were discussing a serious matter but if you prefer I will leave it there, I do not wish to upset any delicate ego's today. Have fun whatever your shooting at.

Ice Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 ***** I had never seen practical shotgun shooting before, i just searched it on youtube and i therefore retract my last statement describing that i would try anything involving a gun............ This looks like the most Ubber-noobish type of shotgun shooting ever..... and i dont think i will be wasting my cartridges on it........ Although this is by no means an insult as i am very happy that you wish to participate in this sport.... so please keep your toys in the pram.... Reporting for duty!!!

neil smith Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) The first two video's are from clubs I do not know & demonstrate the kinds of courses of fire & targets that the UKPSA would never allow & which I would like to see change, The third video was taken at a match that was also not sanctioned by the UKPSA but was a fun shoot, however I do not see any cammo anywhere in the video only a pair of grey loose fitting trousers from next & a tee shirt, I believe the RO has a Barbour on which im sure you would approve of, the last two are nothing to do with practical shotgun competition & are examples of what some people do with guns in other countries but they are not PSG shooters, I suspect the last one is a police class in the USA, many people like to mock what they themselves are affraid of, they also think they could do it better which i very much doubt. I could drag up many video's of stupid acts by vermin & game shooters but I would not because we should embrace any shooting sport whatever it is if we all want to keep our guns, just because you use an O/U doesnt make your sport safe anymore, to the average guy in the street they are all just "guns" and should be banned. This is why this country has lost so many arms of its shooting sports, we never stick together. However if I ever decide to become a pub singer in north wales ill let you know Ice B) N Edited June 24, 2008 by neil smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 If there was ever a motion to take away your cut down FAC pump actions, ban black cargo trousers and attempting to look like Ross Kemp or commando rolls whilst shooting, my virtual signature would be the first on the e-petition!

People who are only interested in trying to show miss information simply show how juvernile & ignorant they are of the sport & have clearly never tried it. I have been a member of this forum for a long while & have found many people on it to be helpfull however there are always a few haters that think its clever to knock others.

harv Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 you really do not have any sense of humour at all do you, i think some of your comments have done yourself and what you represent no favours at all. i am sure you will want to have the last word so please do but i will not be biting anymore and i think you should try do the same on occasion.

neil smith Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Harv I can assure you I have a very good sense of humour but I lost rifles in 89 and I also had to hand over pistols in 95 which I did not find funny at all, I am all for a laugh but as part of the UKPSA I only wish to see the sport continue as I do other branches of the shooting sports.

Mungler Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) How does taking the Mickey out of the "clunk click lock and load" tactical side of practical shotgunning lead to the ban of all guns and those who took the Mickey 100% responsible? This thread has a funny side but I now recognise that practical shotgunning is a deadly serious business and that only deadly serious people may participate. Any suggestion that it is a bit daft may offend the deadly serious and for that I apologise. As above, I now understand that it is a 100% legitimate shooting sport that extends beyond special forces training for fat dads and requires a great deal of skill (and tactical clothing) and for me to suggest otherwise may make me as good as an anti and for that I apologise again. EDIT: Edited to extend my apologies to members of the shooting world who participate in airsoft, paintball and other shooting disciplines that may otherwise be construed as a bit of a fun but are in fact bona fide shooting disciplines with real competitions with real prizes and everything.

Chard Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 :o Just got back from town. It's all kicked orf The thing is, if we were honest :( B) there is a bit of the Rambo in all of us. If I was being really honest, I could admit that when I first got the Mossberg, I might have adopted a Rambo-esque pose in front of the mirror and decided that I looked much 'arder than Chuck Norris :o :o But that was it.......I've never had the urge since then I couldn't go every week and do Commando rolls and shoot cans through the middle of a car tyre, it's not in my nature. Funny old game. My mother would look at me a bit old-fashioned if she caught me doing that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maiden22 Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) I would try it. Might be fun, different style of shooting and so on. Would want targets a bit further away than in those videos though - if you missed the shot you could just kick them over. Are there any clubs near / in South Yorkshire?

neil smith Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Maiden22 You can try these clubs of which only Carlisle contribute to the UKPSA match circuit, the others will offer smaller club level shoots. Guisboro Gun Club Empire Shooting Sports Club South West Lancs Pistol Club Carlisle Small Arms Club Blackburn Rifle & Pistol Club I have nothing more to add here as it is clear that the perception of PSG is one of using cut down pump actions & talk of a tactical side to it, neither of which is in the slightest bit true, we have a great time and shoot many rounds in a day all very safely, im sure some of you think if you throw enough mud some of it will stick just because you are not interested in it, likewise we are not interested in people who cannot be serious around guns, some on here seem determined to get this thread closed but if the time wasters will leave it alone then perhaps it may be a usefull thread to those who have a real interest.

Baldrick Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Some good tactical running here : http://youtube.com/watch?v=a5Sc4aWcgqQ Even though that video is absolutely priceless, I reckon that shooting steel plates with buckshot at 10 yards is unlikely to be as challenging as FITASC, F-Class or a day-long Highland stalk.

neil smith Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Buckshot is shot against cardboard targets with marked scoring zones & requires that you know what load & choke combination will give you the hits on target that you need to score the most points. Unlike F class rifle shooting we dont have all day to shoot a hand full of shots & need to add speed because time is a large part of the scoring system, the fastest misses of the day will not win anything, also the slowest all "A" s on a stage will equally not win, you also have to consider when & where you will do you reloading, the young lad on the video is clearly a beginer but he does nothing unsafe & is well aware of where his muzzle is pointing throughout the stage & I applaud him for that.

Cargo net, black special ops knit wear on the head, wrap around shades and special ops belt wear. Ultimateforcetastic. Proper sport Deadly serious for potentially deadly serious shipping conflicts / incidents / situations. EDIT: I am going to get some training in on the kids slide and early learning centre climbing frame. There could be a deadly serious incident that requires my deadly serious skills in the playground. EDIT EDIT: Someone has video'd themselves reloading in front of the mirror "Taxi Driver" stylee. Here the equipment, clothing and attitude is pure deadly seriousness and is pushing a strong 8 on the "tactical practical scale".
