  1. kept bull breeds for 30 years and never understand lads on a hunting site being interested in them, mine have caught the odd rabbit etc but there are far better dogs for working, you do not get the gundog lads asking about them so why the interest?
  2. I would be more inclined to get the barrel chopped to 12" if I wanted a handy .22, the write up in the shooting times said the zero did alter after taking it down too.
  3. There was a Baikal 410 hushpower on gunwatch yesterday for £200
  4. Best tip there is, I have a Lakie that's 18 month now and thought he was a bit slow picking it up, he was not there just was very little game on the ground. Take him some place with plenty rabbits, foxes and squirrels and see the difference it makes.
  5. One on the right looks like a Harris, should have the model marked on it SLM etc

    lawsons at ferryhill stock gain
  7. Used to be a popular mating with bulldogs (pit bulls)

    Been to Hersoissis too, cracking place, has a old town bit full of restaurants etc and a strip with bars. No beach to speak of though,
  9. You will get one from Chambers gunspares
  10. Had mine done twice 12" and 14", cost around £60, i would think about maybe going shorter than 16" as its still quite long with the mod on and the extra length seves no purpose in a rimmie.
  11. Minox are cracking binos for the money, think they do apocket size, 8x25?
  12. Seems a bit strange taking the risk of poaching with a 243 and not even picking up what you shot, and f***ing about with rabbits too?
  13. You could try the range at steve smiths clay ground or Thorn dell at Bishop middleham, they have a HFT course to practise on.
  14. Fallkniven F1 sounds about right for your needs, cracking knives.
  15. CZ American (light barrel) in a boyds forest camo stock, 14" barrel, Sak mod, yo dave trigger kit fitted, 10 round plastic mag, mounts (scope not included in price). This little rifle is in very good nick, nice bluing and has seen very little use since i fitted the stock and had the barrel chopped, stock is as new, mod is barely used. £325 face to face please, must have relevant slots on FAC too or a possible trade for a decent 12 bore. cheers
  16. scaffold boards on mine too, smarter job would be decking planks or sleepers if its in the garden though.
  17. That will do fine, mine has a 2.5-10 x42 Tasco on it, no need for anything fancy its a yard or so rifle.
  18. i have minox 8x42s, they are very good, lad i go out with has Steiner and they are spot on too.
  19. Thats a crackng set up, like the pond
  20. I never post on these threads but the dog should be pts as said, if it cannot be trusted round kids or dogs and comes from a pet home what use is it? Too much passing problems on and not enough people willing to do whats necessary at times.
  21. Got to disagree here mate, there are bad dogs, seen them with my own eyes sometimes the owner did not make the dog that way but they are still to blame if they ignore the signs. Its a crock of shit when a dog rips someone apart and the owners says " He was always as gentle as a lamb" , the signs are there, you just have to have the sense to do something about them.
  22. There are some right arseholes that own dangerous dogs, not just bull breeds, and they will ignore all the signs that the dog is a wrong un. Likely they made the dog that way but no matter how many people say blame the owner you do get dogs that are just plain nasty, same as some people. seen some with my own eyes and they are scary, a dog that will set about a person the way it would another dog. The owners should be jailed, the signs are there and they ignored them 99% of the time.
  23. Try mcleods of tain, always have a lot of scopes in. http://www.rmacleod.co.uk/
