    For those of you who are missing Dubai....

    Here is a possible option for you....

    Custom earplugs

    +1. I've had problems getting a suitable set, and after spending a lot of money with some companies mentioned above, didn't get a pair to suit, as my internal lugs are 'funny'.  Pete @ Proshock got it right first time.  Top company.

    Fair enough but (as others have said) he was a highly experienced professional pilot flying an agreed routine which would have been seen and agreed by the 'authorities'.  He's no clown.

    Known to police

    It is completely out of order to threaten violence to anyone on any forum.  Particularly a shooting one and you the owner of a firearm.

    Known to police

    Ok, a bit more explanation. The reason that a family's background can be of importance is 'access to 'weapons'.  The police will, quite rightly, do all they can to make sure they don't fall into the wrong hands.   I'm not saying anything re Hamish and his family as I've said several times I...

    Just because you and 3 mates have got SGCs does not mean that some forces don't check things carefully, depending on how they do things and what comes up when they do their preliminary checks.  I know of several people who have had problems in getting both SGCs and FACs due to 'history', so...

     When did you get your certificate?  Things are somewhat different now than a number of years ago. Licensing authorities can and do look at many sources of information including social media and the applicant's family and acquaintances when granting both shotgun certificates and FACs during...

    Known to police

    Nobody can possibly give you an insightful answer with the little information you have given. It would be useful to know why 'her family were known to the police about 20 years ago'. Are her family still 'known' to the police? There are some situations where you could indeed have a problem.

    EJ Churchill 2nd July 15

    Does anyone know if the results are published anywhere yet?  I don't think they're been updated for this month on the Churchill's website.

    British Compak GP

    ​On the 'whole debacle', the key point surely is that the top 5 or 10 competitors displayed some awesome shooting and for Ben Husthwaite to straight the shoot off was incredible.   What is appalling is that one person can misuse social media to create a storm over a false allegation and in so...

    Mandel Chokes

    I bought a couple of these a few years ago and they were fine.  Good price and still did what they were supposed to do.

    John Wayne shooting Cyclists (this should cheer you lot up)

    Brill.  That's one of the funniest clips I've seen in a long time.  And I'm a cyclist.... ;)

    Not strange at all, IMHO.  I saw this post that you've quoted last night and several other posts that stated facts / what people saw and these were removed from her thread within minutes, despite being reposted.  And then apparently the posters got blocked.  Gaz’s post above lasted only a matter...

    ​No it's not, I don't see how scale has anything to do with it. The rules allow for a shooter to call a 'distraction'.  There is no doubt that there was reason to call one - a ref has posted above that he saw it. Two other people saw a bird as well.  So as this thread is about a specific...

    ​Must say that I've rarely seen in the field the sort of shooting skill demonstrated by the likes of Husthwaite, Digweed, Lee, Winser, Hendrick and Faulds.  So maybe we're talking apples and oranges here.  Most/some of these guys are professionals so some 'fussiness' is not unreasonable nor...
