Yep, I like the look of laminate stocks :-). Sadly I don't have a K gun, so may have to go down the custom route...

Thanks chaps. I might have a chat with the guy making the rifle stock... 

I'm in the process of having a laminate stock made for an air rifle, and it got me thinking about using the same material for a shotgun stock. I think I've seen photos of a couple of them (I say think as I don't know if it was actual laminate or clever airbrushing) but not found much detail...

Wow, thank you all for the replies.  I think I'll be giving the gun on offer a miss, but might still go try one out somewhere if I can.  The few Berettas I've shot I haven't found particularly comfortable, but that didn't include a DT10, so I'll that to the list of things to try. Dibs - thanks...

Yep, I think we are indeed talking about the same gun. The repaired stock is a bit of a turn-off for me, thanks for making the enquiry, I hadn't got that far. I know there are some very good repairers out there, but I think I'd rather risk it. Can I ask why you didn't go for it?

Kemen K4s look like nice guns and get some good press. I've liked the ones I've held, though I haven't had a chance to shoot one. I spotted one for sale with a nice looking stock, ISIS recoil system installed, for less than £3k (around £2600), as a private sale. K4s on the market seem...

Sian: I apologise, no piss taking involved or offence intended. In fact quite the opposite, I take a similar approach to some of my possessions, and I'm trying to work out whether it [still] applies to this gun. In terms of humour, I thought your comment about prizing guns from hands was an...

Sian - the fact that I am wondering whether to call it a day suggests that I'm not about to start paraphrasing Charlton Heston just yet... Cockney21 - your one hour fix comment is very valid, but the problem is that it is not, it's going to be a while longer than that.  The RFD is certainly...

Had a great day out shooting today.  It seemed that I could hit almost anything, gun was comfortable in the shoulder, lead (as in the metal) was flying in the right direction, in other words, where I was trying to put it, I was in good company, the sun was shining...  You get the idea. A few...

Clays below the stand, Liz? I thought you were a dedicated skeet shooter these days? OP, in my experience it was a lead issue, needed less than I expected.

Sim pairs could be tough going. On report, given precisely the reasons stated by SG above, might make for an interesting challenge!

Geordieboy, it is indeed maxpedition, jumbo version. Amazon stock them, also Heinnie Haynes. They are a bit "tacticool" if you go by the description, but really they're not...

Eh? What's up with it?

You going down there?

Aren't these the new soft lenses with the corrective properties of rigid ones (for astigmatism, etc.)? I think the company also makes the ones you can wear overnight for corrected vision during the day. Mr Lyons will know more...

A lucky "I keep reading about this so I might as well give it a go" 6.

I use one of these bags. Visible from outer space, waterproof, fits 200 cartridges, water bottle, glasses, paperwork, odds and sods, it's comfortable to carry, and cost me £50 or so. Also available in other colours for the less adventurous.

21C with bright sunshine, few clouds no wind in Madrid just now, only a little cooler in Lisbon. Heck, it's 15C, no clouds, no wind here in southern Switzerland right now. Even the exchange rate works if you're coming from the UK!!
