    If not RAPE, what about GRAPE?

    Andy's not had much success with recruiting members for RAPE (Real Air Pistol Enthusiasts). I can't believe that the moniker isn't holding the group back! So, what about GRAPE (the Guild of Real Air Pistol Enthusiasts)?

    Sounds very traditional, classy, and English: less offensive: and has a double meaning, because Andy refers to our beloved Umarex pistols as "grape busters" (when he isn't calling them "balloon busters").

    Eh? What say? Would you join?

    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    I use a HW45, no one can say that's underpowered! Plus it was modeled on the Colt 1911 & original Colt grips can be fitted

    Hey, it sounds like many of our UBC members are already Grapists! (Grapers?)
