Ronlogan 1 Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Hello to you all, I'm not new to shooting as I started young but wasted too many of my adult years having time off from it. Now I'm getting back into it as my hobby and I see moving into hunting as the next development of that. As such, at first I'll be looking and asking and learning more than imparting much knowledge and experience of my own but this looks a great place to be at. Cheers all Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One thing I'm hoping to learn is how to stop buying more rifles having just done it again today. I'm currently still sub-12 ft/lb but if/when the day dawns when I'm in FAC/SGC territory I'll have to be more restrained! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Expand Take a look on Holts auction site , plenty of rifles etc on there ; i've found some great bargains . I think their next auction is in July. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PhilH 189 Posted April 24, 2022 Report Share Posted April 24, 2022 That's cruel @Rowan. The poor lad has just said that he wants to learn how to stop buying rifles and you suggest a good site where he can get more. He's obviously a recovering compulsive gun freak.....and you encourage him. I bet you stop outside AA meetings and offer the members a lift down to the local liquor store......

Got room for a gun cabinet, though! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had dogs then when old enough got guns but found shooting a bit boring and not sporting so went back to dogs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
