Yes he was Matt  and like I said we all felt sorry for him 

Me too! I sorted him a nearly brand new scope worth a couple of hundred quid so that he could take his lad out shooting and he said he would sort me a catapult out for my little lad. There's been no sign of a catapult or the scope since. Said he would put pic of it up but just posted one of a cheap 50 quid jobbie. I even paid for first class delivery as well. The decent thing to do would be for him to have passed it to someone who genuinely was going to use it with their kid

I may as well have sold it myself but thought I was helping a father and son out

He tried to sell me a catapult as well

There aren't many decent folk left now.

If you want a decent catapult mate I've got a couple off some chap I know and you are more than welcome to have one. I did him a favour so he gave me a couple of good catapults

I wouldn’t let one bad apple spoil it mate there are plenty decent folk on here

[wilbs 249]

When I spoke to him on the phone he was a right laugh and seemed like a decent enough chap lol. I'm not bothered about the catapult but I nearly offered him an S410 off a mate of mine its well used but still does the job and was going to see If he wanted it thank f*** I didn't. 

I've mentioned this before on here, some people might think why would you give away a scope for free but I had nothing as a kid just a tenner each birthday so I think it makes you a better person. When you have come from a rough family, grafted and done well for yourself and i am now sorted in life it gives you a buzz helping people out.

Mr Wilkes - one of the best blokes I've met in a long time is a Muslim chap who is 100% bang on we take the piss out of each other etc. I'm down on the South Coast at the minute he is coming down in next couple of days for a day or two of rabbiting and other stuff and I know that he will make the effort and put the work in. I'm taking him kayaking but he doesn't know it yet

I have done a few things for other folk for free, just the way i am, most of the time it is appreciated but there is a fair share of users and abusers about, been made a mug of more than a few times, reading this thread it shows there are a lot of very different people about.

It does happen but most people are decent. this is what it's looking like at the moment

Its looking good X

job well done it will be a cracking rifle for the lad and a good first rifle

mine was an old Diana lol

you had more chance if you through the rifle at the target

The 35 is going to be better than new

nothing thing more gratifying than doing the rifle your self and seeing how it comes along

as one part is done and you move onto the next .

not that iv done any in the past mined 

would not know where to start lol
