Guest Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 Well, after a few hoops, my shotgun certificate came through today, woohoo! Anybody else shoot real steel?
MisterG Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 Been meaning to give it a go, but HS2 will wipe out my local gun club and they aren't taking new members. Cheers G
Supporters Rogerborg Posted September 13, 2018 Supporters Posted September 13, 2018 I had a SGC for occasionally transporting and shooting black powder muskets back in the day, along with a locker that never had anything in it. It does make me laugh when folk whinge that we're a disarmed society, given that shotgun certificates are shall-issue. Trivia: you can now own a smoothbore cannon up to 50mm/2".
Giraffe Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 Heck yeah I'm going to be shooting at clays tomorrow. Just gotta decide which gun to use lol
clumpyedge Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 I shoot very occasionally these days but when I do its usually on behalf of my friend whos a game keeper for a fairly large estate. Generally if I do get it its clays and targets these days but have done my fair share of pest control for the local farmers who rent off the estate.
AshOnSnow Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 I used to shoot a lot - mostly pistol - but the local clubs in my area are all run by old fogeys in tweed who don’t want to have to look at anyone under 50.
KendoKhan Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 I don't have a FAC but I am a member of our local skeet club, every 2/3 weekend I go down and it's reasonably priced too. £45 for the day + £7 for 25 .28g cartridges and extra clay's starting from £7.50.

Giraffe Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 A lot more sensible than my first gun What is it? Looks like a Browning/Miroku action with double triggers
Guest Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 It’s a Laurona O/U 12 gauge with double trigger Not expensive, but a good start??
