There seems to be quite a lot of airgun/shooting interest on here?

I could tell you a story about an overflow stream from a trout farm, a bit of bread tethered, a cheap air rifle set up on the parapet of a bridge, and a lot of posh trout in my mum's freezer..when I was a kid. Image

I am but do get cheesed at having to get some idea on what is actually being written, I always read my posting before pressing the send button, how would you have read that post then Stew Image Image
Being an editor of the pool I'd expect more correct grammar and spelling tbh Image Image

I suppose it's just a daft idea. But I have had better advice on here so far than I've had from the two shooting forums I subscribe to.

I've 'known' people on here.. sometimes face to face.. and sometimes electronically, and sometimes both. And I prefer to hear what they have to say.

BUT....

It's not a big deal. Image

I will endeavour to ensure that my future posts are correctly spelt...... and I apologise for not making them clear to all readers of the forum, known as the Pikers Pit.

problem with shooting forums is you get the 'gun nuts' giving you advice,


better to ask the (mostly) level headed folk on here.

Si' demand a shooting section, then rampage if you don't get it, should see the forum membership rise on the back of your notoriety.

Unless you are of the vegetarian persuasion...it actually makes a whole lot more sense than fishing Image

I don't think it would hurt to have a little bit of shooting chat on here. It would certainly help me out.
