What type of guns do you own.
Tick the one you use the most if you own a few of the listed type.

I personally use my Sub 12flb BSA hornet the most but I am starting to use my Shotgun more and more these days.

Ive just heard back from data protection (gwent constabulary) seems ive no convictions on file

. So i will be sending my application off for FAC , hope it does not take as long as data pro took

. I had a couple of court convictions about 1983 ish ...... Will send form off with application just in case dont want to end up in court for false info on form

Sadly our 70 yard indoor range closed last year after 15 years, (I think it was something Rochdale lad said

) So we to look eleswhere. We found a great little rimfire club a few miles away.

The air rifles were discarded and I now have two .223s a .308 and a shotgun. Much more fun apart from buying the chuffin ammo

OI!

Quite possibly though... I join for two weeks, and the bloody place shuts down!

It's now in fricking Dukinfield and is 35yds.

Think I'll stick to my 10yard back garden.

Back to the poll - I shoot a CO2 Pistol (Colt 1911A1 - luvverly), a Webley Hurricane, and a Nemesis. For Rifles I've got an Air Arms S400 Classic PCP and a Career MKII, which has recently been sold to buy a deact BREN

Was considering putting in for my FAC, for "fings wot go bang", but not sure if I can be doing with the hassle.

35 yards is a waste of time Dave, but they do smashing egg and bacon butties there

Membership is cheaper too mate. There are more stairs but the climb is easier than chuffin failsworth

Mmmmm, egg and bacon butties *wipes drool away*

I swear to god, I nearly died the first time I went to Failsworth - I bounded up them stairs, and half way up, I had to lean against a wall to get my breath back. I thought my heart was trying to leap out of my throat

Might have to get down there sometime, just for the hell of it. Wonder if I can get the train?

still have a couple of prechrage but the all time fave has got to the the worst of the lot hw77 .177 never been touched sounds like hell but as only shoot at club who cares! much more satisfying to hit the tagets with the trusty old sproinger then getting bored of going for the opin heads with the PCP.

but if i do venture to the fields its got to be the tricked up stealth bunny basher every time

just a little too easy for the range
