Having a laugh

[philpot 5,050]

I was in my rfd yesterday when a chap came in to buy the cheapest air rifle he could saying that he had a problem with pigeon crapping all over his garden furnature. A suitably cheap rifle (can't remember the make but shitty) which had a very cheap scope fitted was offered. The chap asked if there was a guantee with the gun and was told no, it is a s/h old gun but as a gesture they would give a month, the guy turned and said ' I am talking about killing the pigeon and then explained that if he couldn't kill the pigeon, the gun must be faulty and he will expect to get his money back......................  I did ask the guy if he shoots, his reply was, 'I have never had a gun before'.  I think there may be some heated discussions going to take place in a few days.

Not only that but would be breaking the law by shooting the pigeon

Not if he’s protecting the cabbage patch behind the garden furniture

I was asked to trap some moles for a neighbour. Anyway, we start talking about shooting and he says he has been trying to shoot the rats off his bird table, about 15 yards from his window, but he keeps missing. I said perhaps his scope needed zeroing, he said he didn't have a scope. Can you adjust the iron sights I asked, it doesn't have any sights at all. He got the rifle, old break barrel thing, and like he said, it didn't have anything on there to sight a target. The thing was a piece of junk. I went and got my AA S410 and he was amazed at the accuracy. Now he's all excited and wants a P.C.P. I told him what a set up would cost and he said he'll stick with what he's got. I said what's the point if you can't hit jack with it?!.......mental.
