Yep, I totally get this. That's why I have some that I don't use that often. just nice things and to appreciate the build quality and effort it took to produce them. Such as it took someone 5 days just to Engrave the Browning B25 I have.

I also think they especially got a bit of a bad rap when they first came out of being of an action design similar to the cheap end of the market with longevity being brought into question. It was the only time I saw a comment in one of Mr H's reviews that was remotely negative. I've not owned...

Excluding All Browing/Miroku. As Above I'd be looking at New Beretta 694 Adjustable stock and also consider an CG invictus adjustable at a push Second hand. Good Perazzi, MX8, MX2000 or MX12 or MX 2000s. Consider getting an adjustable stock. Loads of stocks available so buy the best...

Every 28g load has a 24g load built into it. The question was asked to some of top olympic trap shots. The concensus was that 24 compared to 28g probably cost them 1 or 2 targets per 100. Lower class shots a few more. If you look at the rules for UK ISSF events where 24g is the max allowed...

I would guess that they are made of a softer steel than the action. This would mean that they wear rather than the action. As they are one piece the tip will be the same. Running harder pins may cause the holes to wear. Browning B25s at least use steel suitable and hardend to match it's...

Try another brand. TBH I find Hull a bit thumpy If you do it without holding the penny, i was told it should hit the ceiling anything less indicates a problem. I did once have a new gun where the pin sheared near the tip. It was quite obvious though as the tip was no longer dome shaped. In...

Lost for words on this. Unbelievable, I don't know the details but it's a very sad day to see the Halls leaving after the improvements they've made to the facilities. They put a hell of a lot into it and they are such nice people. it's sad to see it all go, whatever reason is.

As above, I'd hang on. I certainly am. Most Italian guns even if not steel proof to 1320 bar are superior or what is also known as double lead shot proof (double star over the PSF proof) mark and should be OK with Standard steel as should be a B25 and B125 I have. The kemens should also have...

Bit of an old thread this. I remember the moving plate test but don't know where it was published. I did see the YouTube video in the link. Good to watch from the beginning for background info etc but be patient as the the interesting stuff starts about halfway through.

I don't know in about Denmark but In the uk http://www.ukgunrepairs.co.uk/ became the agents a couple of years ago. It might be worth giving them a call. I last spoke to Dennis but sadly he's no longer with us. So things may have changed. I was warned that Parts from the factory are not cheap.

Probably not allowed due to the steel shot thing. It's a problem that small calibre users In the UK may have fo face soon.

:rolleyes: 👜 💤

I saw a review of Griffin &Howe on YouTube a while ago which had an impressive set up. I can't remember who did it though. It"s about 1 to 11/2 hours away from NYC. Someone from the USA may know of a nearer place.

Reminds me of when I bought my first Remmi 1100 when I was a teenager and spent an age trying to scrub out the gas ports before coming to conclusion they were pitting. My dad laughed his bits off. 🙃

There's the cpsa fixtures there's also one that gives the dates of the major shoots that can be downloaded in tabular form. https://www.cpsa.co.uk/calendarx

They're going for around £1200 to £1600 on the gun sale sale websites. Which to be will be lower once a discount is negotiated due to the the steel effect and it could sit on the shelf for quite a while, plus there's VAT etc. If you can throw in a "Give me a grand and I'll do it now with the...

Not too much for me. I was fortunate to be spotted as it were by a top Shot of the time. Unfortunately I didn't really have the resources of others to make the most of it. Wealthy parents or lots of disposable ££s definitely help in getting to the top. Instead I went to do something where the...

Just on the eye dominance and my experience. Due to an operatio over a 12 month period, cataract formed in my Rright"Master" eye. My vision went from 20/10 to 20/250 even when corrected. Target sports where I had shot with both eyes open became difficult. Mainly because I could see the (open)...

It's also interesting that the proposals make an allowance for identified olympic shooters ,so they are not disadvantaged. But what about the other GB teams. DTL, ABT, UT and Fitasc and English sporting that all have European. World Championships and as NI according to the proposal comes under...

Not sure TBH.assuming there are in the order of 350,000- 500,000 licence holders ( could be way out, though) this would work out at around £750- £1k per licence holder. This is for the participants. I guess there will be some cost to the trade. How did the grounds go about preparing for steel...
