Bryan , sorry you cant make it !
Not to worry Brian, the event is held at a different location each year. Next years is proposed to be in the Ipswich area and the year after, either the North East or Scottish Borders country. Last years event was the inaugural one and though the attendance wasn't as large as hoped for we expect it to grow year by year as the forum membership increases (quadrupled since last years event). The emphasis is on a fun day out, nothing too serious at all, though I expect the 'Open' Class to be hotly contended when the Chinese guns come up against any other make. Given some of the scores from last year some might have to modify their opinions on these guns as a nicely tuned gun
If this does come to Ipswitch (or 100 miles radius of Cambs) you can count myself and Dad in! Sounds like an absolute hoot so a real pity its just a bit too far to travel this time. Will be dusting off a Westlake, Dragon and curious pump-up thingy in preparation...
Batfink , sign up to the UK Chinese airgun forum , you'll meet loads of great guys who have lots of fun with the chinese & other obscure air guns .
Saw some of the prizes today ... 2 rifles being given away !!
