patchworkcrew 0 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Nice rifle nice setup. How did you find Anderson's? I think they are pretty good. Nice showroom, good workshops, friendly staff. Always come away knowing more than I did when I went in. The only thing I would have changed is the moderator. I'd have gone for the Utra but I don't know if they stock them. Good shooting. Bob G Quote Link to post

Bob G I bought my shotgun from East Grinstead Guns around the corner from them, got them to fit a recoil pad and do a repair, the quality of workmanship was poor, luckily for me I'm at college in winchester and there's a gunsmith who actually makes guns.. a bit more expensive as they're on a premium site but they do a sterling job... (BE Chaplin) Andersons? as you say, the guys in there are very helpful, good selection of guns, scopes and all the gubbins.... as for the moderator... all I wanted it for was to take the crack off at the muzzle so that I could shoot it without ear defenders, and I reckon the sound attenuation will be enough for my needs though...

SportingShooter 0 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Nice setup I'm yet to use mine on the shoot this year, it isn't zeroed even. I haven't the time to use it just now but I do miss it. Quote Link to post
