  1. Due to a lack of work and money I may have to sell my Van. It's a Mk7 Ford Transit Jumbo Lx in Arctic White, excellent condition inside and out, features a top of the range professional reversing camera and the cd6000 entertainment system. It has the incredible Duratorq 140ps engine. I'm near Huntingdon (Cambs) and will be looking for around £6000. Can e-mail photo's and further info to genuinely interested parties. Would consider a px (cash my way) for car or motorcycle (600-750cc) WHY? Pm's prefered Peter

  3. Bonjour Clyde,Ca va? Où abouts vous vit-il? Je me suis récemment déplacé en arrière au Royaume-Uni après la vie dans Britany pendant 8 ans.Mais, Si vous vivez en France vous n'avez pas le droit de chasser avec une carabine à air comprimé, si pourquoi auriez-vous besoin d'un silencieux??? Bonjour je mappele steve, Jai joe le foot, jai mange le poisson, jai habbite ma maison on anglettere .atb. .ste. Steve, That's not even French mate!

  4. Me too, the difference was noticeable to say the least.

  6. Exactly. I'm in the same situation. I'm self employed and can't find any work and trust me I've tried. I think of the insurance premium as an investment. £16 buys you the peace of mind to go shooting, knowing that if the worst should happen you are covered and you will hopefully alot put more food on the table than £16 would buy you.
  7. I can see how you've made the spinners (twisted the end of the spoons, drilled a hole and then threaded them over the coat hanger), but can't really see how the Knock downs are made. Is it a pair of scissors?
  8. That's another one on the s##t list! Can't believe some of the bargains people come across. Wish I could get some of that luck sometimes! Hey Matt, there was no-one more suprised than me when it turned out to be a good 'un! I hadn't had an air-rifle for about 15 years when I brought this one, so didn't know one from another and had to go by gut feel, was gob-smacked when I did a bit of surfing and found out what it's really worth. I was offered a couple at the time - mostly Gamo's all around the same price though.
  9. I got what I consider to be the bargain of my life when I brought my HK77, it's in excellent condition, AA Scope, Gun Slip and a tub of pellets €50 (£40ish) last year when I was still living in France. Had it Crono'd yesterday and it's still at around 10lb/ft. Zero'd it today and every shot was on the mark.
  10. No Where near you, but my local shop does it for nowt!
  11. Thanks for that, Hadn't heard of that one, but as it's only about an hour away and it's my Birthday the day before (Might be able to get this wife to buy me something nice!!) I might give it a go! Maybe be able to put faces to names then
  12. Knew a guy once who used to hunt with a Golden Eagle and occassionally used to feed fox meat and pelt to the Eagle to keep it occupied, it's Beak/Talons in shape and to keep it focussed on foxes as prey. Apparently everytime it ate fox it stank, Badly! You might want to think about that before you try it yourself. Personally, I wouldn't.
  13. Good Thread, I'm particularly interested in your theory that Rabbits die quicker than birds. I have in the past cleanly (Head/Heart) shot quite a few Pigeons at around 25-30m that seemed to flap for quite a while, though obviously dead. My thoughts are that with the .22 pellet passing through thin bone at a relatively high velocity the internal trauma is 'minimised', However with rabbits the pellet is striking a comparitively thicker bone structure and taking more of the bone mass through the brain, causing far greater trauma and an instant death. My logic here is that if you shoot at a ba
  14. I think he meant Brown Snake as in 'Eastern Brown Snake' not as in a brown snake! 'The Eastern Brown Snake (Pseudonaja textilis), often referred to as the Common Brown Snake, is an elapid snake native to Australia. This species is considered to be the second most venomous land snake' - Wikipedia
  15. I've been told that under Brititsh Law (In England & Wales) there is no legal definition of Trespass, Only of causing Criminal Damage.
  16. Try the IFF, pleanty of memmbers in Devon and Cornwall Can't post links so try Googling 'International Falconry Forum'
  17. One of ours is at least as bright as one of our dogs! Admittedly she's not the brightest dog in the world, but........ He worked out that when they're brought in that they can open the door on the washing machine and then curl up inside for a kip. Must be very entertaining watching them do this Yup! and they're the cleanest ferrets around

  19. Hi Alex, I'm near Ramsey, But often drop my lad at work off between Ely and Chatteris, So Wisbech isn't a problem. ATB Peter
  20. Have to say that this might be very difficult to actually do. Hunting laws are very tight in France and iirc it's difficult and expensive to get a visitors' hunting licence (Permis de Chasse)even on Private Estates. See here: (in French) http://www.chasseurdefrance.com/reglementation_d.htm
