  1. This section got me thinking! Wouldn't it be useful to have a classic rifles wanted section? I've been after a really clean example of a theoben taunus for a while now, now and again one comes up but I'm usually too late seeing them ? Anyone else think this would be a useful thread?
  2. Lyn lewington specializes in tuning them too ?
  3. Better get yourself some good running shoes, it seriously winds them up ?
  4. I've recently bought the Diana 34T premier from sfs after Tony wall had done his stuff on it. It's very light, but very long, especially with the moddy he puts on them. Although it's in .177 it's still very nice to shoot.
  5. Yep it's silly season alright, lots of bee calls, people insistent they are wasps ? My mate who started out last year has the right idea, he's telling them that it won't be wasps, the customer insists they are wasps, he charges £35 to go and confirm! Beats working ?
  6. Not often you see a Diana getting used these days, nice one ?
  7. It's an electric fencing stake, not ideal as it does hold memory if you leave them set too long. Fine though if you only set them in the evening. ?
  8. Indeed, just look up sharman knives. He makes his own Damascus steel, personally i think they are heirloom quality.
  9. I use trophies in all mine in both calibres. I find them to be the most reliable, and don't they ever make a crack on contact ?
  10. My mate will be there with his hand made custom knives! Travelling up all the way from West Cornwall, hopefully people will be in a mood for buying shiny things ?
  11. When you have a snare line found by a badger or fox it's a complete mare, I don't do big trapping/snaring jobs like I did twenty years ago, but when I did and experienced this problem it used to seriously p me off. Same sort of thing happened on a dairy farm rabbit job I did, traps in every hole, come back in the morning, every rabbit had big holes in them made by rats! Rabbits completely unsalable. ?
  12. I know three of the writers, you would not trust any of them to hold your coat let alone tell you how to service your rifles ?
  13. Morning mark, I can say without a doubt I prefer the lgu by a country mile. One day I will get around to stripping the lgv and lube and polish etc and I'm sure it will be nicer. Obviously being .22 the lgu is always going to be sweeter to shoot than the .177 lgv, but I feel it needs a bit of work done and it will / should be a lot softer hot cycle.
  14. That's fantastic Clive. I detest hearing about dogs being neglected or cruelly treated. Glad yours has a happy outcome. We are due another dog as our oldest is quite old now, and even the pup is seven! We will probably rescue this time.
  15. The field is mine. That bit I use as the air rifle range is 68 yds to the small hedge.
  16. Look forward to seeing this when it is finished. ?
  17. And what a beauty she is Clive ! Hopefully you will have many adventures together. Its not manic down here, but not slow either. Enough to keep me in pin money, but without working up a sweat ?
  18. It was just too nice to not get a couple out for a plink. Decided these two needed airing as they've not been out of the cabinet for months.
