    This has puzzled me too.

    The on-line comps were one of the main reasons that I joined. I get very little opportunity to get to a club range and this is a great way to join in with other shooters.

    It is FREE (with the exception of the Snooker Comp), and can surely be fitted into the busiest schedule. I mean, how long does it take to fire off 20 odd rounds? (unless, like me this week, you go and break your semi-auto ).

    Now get your pistols out and JOIN IN THE FUN

    I can't work out why we have so few shooting with so many members.

    It's not like the competitions are difficult, there not just a lot of fun.

    we have members from every level, from complete beginners upwards.

    so as already said break them pistols out, and put some fun back into your shooting.
    Fancy shooting your air pistols & rifles a bit more, then guy's & gal's come visit us at the
    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    I agree also. As we do have a good following & a good mix of competitions.

    oh well still doesn't effect me as I normally come last anyway

    Just got an Email off MikeB. He's just come back for his Suprise vacation, now he's at work sorting things out.

    He will be sending me the score details later today for me to put up on the comp website.

    We both are sorry for the delay, but we will endeavour to get the scores up as soon as possible.

    Regards
    Paddy & Mike.
    BE-HAPPY-OK
