LeeC, unfortunatley we don't have a second amendment over here. I'd say you are priviledged to have the right I also have a license to fly autogyros and i'm told, that is also a priviledge, seems like nothings a right over here. Regards KB.

Hi Rick, i fired my last shot last tuesday evening at 18.45 our time, it's been dark about 1 1/2 hours by that time. I'd been calling this fox each evening for several days but could'nt get it close enough for a safe shot, anyway on tuesday i wait for dark then drive 1 mile to field and park landrov...

Rick, thanks for those exellent pictures, i'm learning all the time. I suppose the word awesome would'nt be out of context here, i never even knew things like that existed.I will look into getting a portable one with a back pack for my carry rifle for my one shot per day forays

Hi all,they just started selling brakes for .22 rimfire over here, would you believe? regs.KB.

Skipper, googled and found Tuffy, info says it has a 22" barrel.... Just too much hassle to get license for that in UK. thanks again,KB.

Hi Ruger No 1, If you mean the X mark pro trigger i have two of those on model sevens. I had them both adjusted by a smith and now they will both let go at 3lbs, they will also let go anywhere else, right up to 5 1/2 lbs. No consistancy whatsoever, more to come......they sometimes go over on cycling...

Hi Melvin, no offence taken and no appology needed. I can't comment on the vid.as i hav'nt seen it. After the incident the government moved very swiftly and the law was changed to ban hand guns. its so bad i believe even our olympic pistol shooters have to leave the country to practice, i would have...

Hi Melvin, Your comment is a bit unfair. We did not just sit back, but there was no time to get organized because our masters had a knee jerk reaction to a very tragic event. As they rightly say, the criminal element are not affected by firearms legislation. regards KB.

Thanks skipper, i was asking because my 11 year old grandson has started to accompany me on occasional wood pigeon shooting trips, he has been using a Webley .410 bolt action, but finds the safety too hard (it involves pulling a part of the bolt back against the pressure of the fireing pin spring) a...

Could do with some whiskey like that...get the reqired result but still have your faculties in good working order.( as you obviously have) youcould make a fortune.

Yeah alright, you're right Rick but i think it will have to be a mug of redeye ,not tea.KB.

Hi Rick, Thats all interesting information. I was wondering if barrels might have been made tapering from muzzle to breech so that they would change to a true cylinder when the breech warmed up(assuming the action end operates at higher temps. than the other end) as i was told by a Canadian pilot th...

Hi, are there any technos out there who can tell me wether a rifle barrel is designed to shoot best when cold or is there an optimum temperature? Also does the ambient temp. in some of your hotter states have a detrimental effect on barrel performance? Thanks KB.

Hi skipper, nice story and very nice pictures. Thats an unusual looking .410, what make is it? Never seen anything like that here in UK. Thanks.KB.

Hi Rick, best wishes for a q.a.a.y.d. return to what you like doing best. from all in the UK.KB.
