Hello everyone

[Strebo]

I'm chris 29 from Edmondstown south wales, recently Decided to get back into shooting thanks to my nagging son, picked up a nice air arms s200 off a mate I work with( who is also on this site) it is a great rifle for both me and my 12 year old son, once we get some land to shoot on I hope to apply for my fire arms cert and go on to bigger and better things. Hope to get some good advice from fellow enthusiast.

Hi there and welcome. Don't think of it as bigger and better you have a nice rifle there and depending on what you intend to do might be all you need.

Plenty of peeps here with much more knowledge than me who can advise you in whatever you intend to do. Best advice I was given was join a club.

Cheers

Hi Chris,

Welcome to the BBS. As has been said, you'll find plenty of good advice on here mate, just be patient, read and learn.

Tread carefully in the "Non-airgun section"... there's all manner of freaks and geeks in there, a couple of trolls and the odd fruitbat.

Are you in a club yet? If not, in my opinion, it's the way to go. You'll get to see/try plenty of other rifles and get practical advice too.

Hope you enjoy your re-kindled love for the sport/hobby.

Cliff.

Hello, Chris,

You can learn more in a week on here about shooting--and other things!--than you would plodding alone on your own for years. Good on your lad for pulling you back in. We need lots of young people in shooting.
