1989964 1 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hi everyone, im a new member from cheltenham, gloucestershire. i have been shooting air rifles for some years as well as more powerful rifles in Australia. Recently i have been given permission to shoot on my friends 50 acres of land and will be applying for my FAC. i have also been looking at buying another air rifle and although i was initially annoyed at not being able to reply to a classified ad that took my eye, i must say that i agree with the policy in place regarding 5 posts. Had that been the case over at airgunforum i would not now be £280 worse off. I look forward to asking questions and gaining knowledge, thanks, nathan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chrisjpainter 10 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Welcome mate. What happened on the AirGunForum?! sounds like a bad experience and a half. So frustrating that people are so willing to scam people out of their hard earned cash, leaves you a sick feeling in the stomach eh? enjoy your stay here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

1989964 1 Posted November 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Thank you all. Unfortunately i was scammed by someone over there on an s410. Sent the money and no rifle arrived. Its all with the police now as he's done it to others. Hopefully he will get what is coming to him..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We've had a few of those on here as well. Just watch out for stuff in your area; there have been A LOT of scams coming out of your neck of the woods. What member was it on the airgunforum? are they still active?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1989964 1 Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Yes, too good to be true usually means it is! Their name was brandon, his full name is brandon johns. With any luck he should be getting a tug from the beak shortly, there were at least 4 of us that have made statements to the police which i think means that they will take it seriously. If i hear any good news regarding the scumbag i shall let you all know so we can have a collective hurrah. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
