    No it wasnt the one featured in the mag (although that was cool if I remember)

    Check out the www.umarexboysclub.co.uk

    and click the Police Pistol tab. If you dont want to use your Deagle, give it to me and I will

    Oohhhhhhhhhhhh....think I'll have to give that one a bash!

    And thanks, but the Deagle gets used a lot!

    First post here,

    can I enter with my 54 year old smoothbore webley junior?
    I will need dispensation for the fact it is a single shot so I won't be meeting the timelines or double tapping?

    cheers

    I'm afraid that we couldn't waive hte time limits, 38, , since the competition is designed to simulate police-type shooting: therefore, speed of firing (reloading, too) and fast follow-up shots are essential.

    Sounds like your pistol is well-suited to the springer category (and side shoots) of the regular UBC shoot, though.

    Hi there,
    Sadly I think that'll be a no chance buddy, However as you do shoot an air pistol, why not join the UBC and enter our pistol comp every month?

    Six scores so far!

    And it's still not too late, because you have till midnight on Sunday.

    Unfortunately, I have to leave town for a business trip on Monday morning, so please bear with me, it'll probably be Wednesday before I can post the scores.

    Still time to compete!

    Another whole weekend in which to compete, mates, but remember, this months's round ends at midnight (yours or mine, whichever comes later as Sunday becomes Monday, so please get out there and have a go this weekend!

    It's a load of fun! We've had six scores submitted so far: 5 shooters, one used two different pistols which is perfectly OK and indeed encoiuraged.

    Targets available right in this Thread (Message # 24), rules are in Messages # 38 and # 39. Very simple shoot, all you need is a repeating air pistol that holds 6 rounds: the targets that you can print-out from # 24, and 6 yards of space.

    Come on, have a nice Combat shoot in your own home or backyard!
