I had a good day at Gunsite on Sunday (although not scorewise.) Started on the pool shoot dropping only 1 which was a real confidence booster. The forecasted rain did not appear and I had to strip off a couple of layers, shooting in a tee shirt and shooting vest when the sun came out. The shoot...

😅 When you have finished inventing it Westley, give me a call

I am always aware of the bead position with regard to the target even though it's only for a split second, it's just the way I shoot, I can't say if it's right or wrong but I can't be the only one. There are times when shooting floaty targets or targets with a natural pause where I use it like...

Garwood, (I took your P1 to be FN)

No I don't lose sight of it, I said "unobtrusive" by which I meant that it doesn't get in the way or become too visible like a lit up fibre optic bead.

I used to do a bit of coaching for a guy who had taken off the beads from all of his guns and I didn't like it at all, although I could hit the fairly simple targets with them. My guns have always had white beads which I really do like as they are visible as a reference point when I need it but...

This is what I can glean from the markings, they are my interpretations only and cannot be Guaranteed E.2 could mean 1985 Eibar Proof House S/N = FN183245 FN = ARIZAGA, IGNACIO (formerly GASPAR) Bore Diameters 18.4mm Chokes LH + = FULL, RH +++ = Half Chambers 12G X 70mm (2 ¾”) Proofed...

if you post a clear image of all of the proof markings perhaps we can help

Welcome to the forum, may you have a long and happy shooting career

There was a Hudson gun company in New York, Some companies import guns and sell them under their own names

I did Hangman's stone sporting clays today, arrived at 10am, about 3 degrees C and the car park was packed to the gunnels. It was a typical Sean Ponting layout, you start out with a couple of easy-ish stands which is a very nice way to ease you into things, Stand three steps up the game a little...

My mate Eric's ported gun is louder, I take a step or two backwards when scoring for him

I think most of them are permanently on. With mine at least I put the batteries in and screw up the end cap until the laser comes on, I do what I need to do then remove it and undo the battery cap so the laser turns off and that's how I store it.

Stigg, no they are shaped just like a cartridge or snap cap, they just drop into the chamber and you close the gun normally, you don't pull the trigger while it's in the gun, you just remove it when you have finished like an unfired cartridge

No use asking shooters questions like that, I used to be able to hear Bats, Shrews squeaking in the hedgerows and all sorts. All that has gone after years of shooting.

https://www.ant-supplies.uk/scopes-sights-optics/shotgun-shell-laser-bore-sighters.html this is the kind of thing I used There are better ones (more expensive) with O-Rings for a better fit in the chambers but I found that the one I used was centred in the chamber well enough. I recall adding a...

I tried a laser cartridge in my Beretta 692 out of curiosity and it pointed about 6" low at about 15 metres which really knocked my confidence in the gun. I made a post on this site and it was pointed out that all the laser pointer does is check the alignment of the chambers. I don't have access...

They are noticably louder for anyone standing nearby, mates, scorers etc.

Well done to them!

I started shooting clays (about 1970) with a cheap old side by side choked at 3/4 and Full, it was a revelation when I had a go with my mates Winchester 101 Lightweight O/U with1/4 and 1/2, needless to say, it wasn't long before I had one too
