I picked up a 2015 F3 and it looks like new. I don’t know how much use it had beforehand though to be fair.

Does she sell that £17,000 metallic blue sideboard? The one in which literally none of the doors line up properly and all the drawers sag when you extend them? Than one that’s basically some sh*tty MDF school DT project, probably sprayed with some cans of Volvo Mussel Blue from Halfords out of...

CPSA member. The membership does make mention of assistance with renewals, but not grants. Still, if I don’t ask, the answer is a definite no, so will take your advice and write them an email asking for help.

@ehb102  Interesting. Thank you. I did write to the Licencing manager but got no reply 

100% sure the F3 doesn’t make me shoot any better than the F16. I’m not convinced the F16 makes me shoot better than the 525 I started with, or the 686 school gun I used at the very beginning, but I was immediately taken with the low profile action. For me it just felt nice. Nothing more...

Umm... ☺️

Northamptonshire police are having a heck of a time just trying to catch up on renewals.  Grants were suspended during the first lockdown, and being short staffed for most of the year they’re really up against it. They’ve  had to put special provisions in place to keep current SGC holders...

Really sad news.  I never met him in person, but he was one of those I’d looked forward to perhaps meeting one day. I help his views in high regard, even if I didn’t agree or understand. He always gave a clear and well founded opinion and commanded a lot of respect. He struck me a a man true...

Given the behaviour of some SGC holders I have witnessed, one thinks that “The Plod” may sometimes being not careful enough!

@ColinD 🤣 Isn’t just a little bit ironic that any criminal worth their salt is hardly likely to bother with complying with the law would go to the trouble to file for a SGC The issue, I have no qualms disclosing as it’s a simple fact of life, my ex wife and I had over the years a tempestuous...

None. Yes NONE, not nine, NONE! Seriously... I now “own” a F16 and two F3’s all kept for me at grounds/RFD‘S until my license arrives. It’s been just over a year since I applied. Some initial extra checks were required which was told could add two or three months to the process. That then...

I quite like Gamebore Blue Diamond, but had been experiencing ejection issues in the F16

This made me chuckle, but completely understand. I was very touchy about this for a while after my father passed away in April. 

Not as far as some would like us to think apparently. I’ve never been great at estimating distance but have been getting better at it through shooting and actively measuring out distance while my children hold up a clay in the local park. Those 70 yarders I was told I hit... well, they’re more...

oh, she’s well aware of my thoughts on her selfie skills. To be honest it’s difficult to hide my amusement 🤣

Thanks Will, I liked the Evo through my F16 myself actually.  I got 2013 F3 Professional from J F Neville in Alfreton, Derbyshire and discovered they sell Clever cartridges and have wanted to give them a try for a while now 

Anyone willing to recommend their tried and tested cartridges through 1/2 choke for Blaser F3?

I switched shoulder after about 40 cartridges. Not only am I left eye dominant, my right eye has a micro-strabismus (Tiny squint) I can still hit targets off my right, but no where near as consistently. I doff my cap to those of you who successfully shoot off the “wrong shoulder”

Take a look at the cartridge business for a moment from the information that can be readily found by an industry outsider within just a few minutes of google searching. First of all, take the CoGS (Cost of goods sold) in other words, the cost of the materials. 1/ Lead. 2/ Case. 3/ “Brass” (or...

@Freddypip Think that may only slow the discharge rate at best. Once air or rather the oxygen from the air has entered the cell the process cannot be stopped. A vacuum may also further slow the discharge rate but I doubt it. Moisture also plays a role in this too.  For me, the battery issue...
