End Of The Line.

[Barnze 4]

Since losing my permission earlier this year and knocking on 40 plus farms.posting 100s of letters /E Mails i have decided that's enough!
I have a guy coming round later today to hopefully buy my gun.

 

Cheers for the help and encouragement over the last few months.

I will still pop in to keep up with whats going on.

 

All the best

don't sell the air rifle,, man up,,,, and keep rapping on new doors. you may widen your scopes am sure you'll get somewhere..

luck gets you no where it may help you but its persistence that gets you through life mate

Sad when it comes to this but as my old man says it doesn't eat a piece put it away till you need it

[Barnze 4]

Wise chap your old man..

[The one 8,463]

Aye but i suppose theres a fine line between that and becoming a hoarder

Thats very sad news, I really feel for you, I recently came back to it and had to find permissions again after a good few years break but managed to talk round old landowners who were very understanding, just think carefully before selling up, i did and regretted it and now have to buy all gear again, sods law I think they call it .........maybe keep your gun a while you never know things could all change on the permission front......usually the minute you sell up and call it a day, maybe try smaller sites like pasture as i did its not thousands of acres but thousands of rabbits ..

 

Good luck anyway, all the best,

Sorry to hear that mate. As a thought are there any good clubs near you? HFT is good fun too and my local club (Kibworth) runs a load of competitions - enough to keep me busy - Thursdays and Weekends - and are great shooting practice too. Perhaps there is a club nearby that can fill the gap?

And maybe get to meet folk with permission who may be willing to let you tag along.
