Hi Everyone, I’ve been looking at getting myself a Bore Boss to run through my barrels before travelling home to kick start the cleaning process and remove fouling whilst it’s still nice and soft. It appeals to me because it’s small and comes in it’s own rubberised carry case so it won’t dirty...

Hey Everyone, Yesterday I finally got my first gun - and got to spend the afternoon today shooting.    Well pleased so far - hopefully the start of a long and glorious shooting career!

It seems to me that they could solve the drone problem over Gatwick by employing a couple of shooters and letting them have a crack at bringing it down! Or would that contravene H&S??

I’ve just read a Facebook post from Mike Yardley about plastic shells asking if we should move back to waxed paper. It made me think about plastic wads, and whether we are in danger of falling foul of the current move to cut plastic out - not that I’ve seen any whales choke on a wad.  What do...

Hi All, So, having been away for a couple of years I’m back! I know you all missed me terribly! When I was here last I was about to start shooting, having just gotten my SGC, and was looking for a new (to me) gun. Unfortunately I suffered a back injury that meant that I was unable to shoot, so...

Been browsing sales stuff in Amazon as I'm clearly a terrible shopaholic and came across this beauty! Tourbon Vintage Brown Leather Hip Scabbard Waist Belt Gun Holster for Shotgun Rifle - Brown https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0149PWIWO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_Z8vzybHVYKYP2 I can only imagine that you...

Hi Y'All, im sure the more astute amongst you will have noticed that Chrimbo is nearly on us - so, what have you got on your wish list for Santa to bring you this year?! i've sent a letter to the North Pole asking for a new set of ear defenders!

Clearly I'm getting old, or soft. My mates in Derbyshire would be kicking my arse if they knew I was asking this..... What shooting gloves do you all use? Any better than others/recommendations or otherwise??

Hi Guys, I came across this whilst avoiding doing some work this morning - it looks like a real bargain if you're in the market for new hearing protection.... Howard Leight by Honeywell 1013530 Impact Sport Electronic Folding Earmuff...

If you're right handed, but left eye dominant, here's the gun for you! This guy finds some really interesting old guns.... 

Hi All, This may not be the right place to post this - but here goes.  Due to my following the prescribed recommended location for putting my safe, it's in a pretty dark place. Even with the 'big light' on (thanks Peter Kay, copyright cheque in the post, honest!) it's a cramped and difficult...

Hi Y'All, I'm looking at finally getting my own iron, and due to a recent liquidity issue (no tears now, please. We're British and need to maintain a stiff upper lip!) my budget has been halved to £1k or less.  Now, I've been looking at second hand weapons, and came across a new Bettinsoli...

Hi Y'all, Anyone used these before? The advert is pure 80's awesomeness! I'm sold on that alone!

So, as previously described, I recently was introduced to clay shooting on a stag do up in Manchester - and I got bit.... In a bit of a whim I took a drive out to the Oxford Gun Company's open weekend a couple of weeks ago, and again on a whim picked up some raffle tickets.  To to my total...

Hey All! As a total newbie, I'm putting together my kit little by little whilst waiting for the FEO in my area process my grant application, and I was wondering if there are any advantages/disadvantages between shooting vests and pouches? Is it totally down to personal preference?

Hey everyone! I've been floating around the forum for a week of two, trying to absorb as much as possible before I start posting stuff, and I figured an introduction would be a good place to start! I'm a real noobie when it comes to shooting, although my first weekend job when I was a young...
