120 quid just to tell you if it fits then further cost to alter, ruddy ell.

not sure how sporting works but in trap if a newbie is unsure or struggling or asks then us experienced folk take a look and tell them for free. 120 quid my arse.

Ian, its all part of the panache of visiting a posh shooting school old boy! My last gun was set up for me for the cost of two rounds of ot. The guy in question has shot trap for England, owns a shooting ground, is a coach and a gunsmith. Oh.....and you ignore his advice at your peril! ?

A gun fitting is all very well, but what happens when you drop that 2 stone for your wedding?

Just had one done at AGL,

Today's straw bailer was interesting, I know know which are my bogey birds to work on, and not is it the gun mount / fit that caused the miss!

Thank you for that, a superb report and I guess, experience. I shall be contacting them later in the year, I plan on going there with a friend who has just bought a nice Merkel sidelock. I suspect it is just a touch low and if AGL hold another fitting/alteration weekend, we could get it altered. Just have to get him on some clays and my 'Blue Peter Kit' of sticky tape and rubber beforehand !
