    BTW Bob, we have lost a potential team member because you poached an Original 6 from under his nose and TC1 won't sell him the FWB 65 he hasn't got the strength to cock - major sulk mode and he's disappeared to Turkey for two weeks.

    Its easy to confuse and flumux the Rivvi lads. Just offer them two shovels and say "Take your pick?"
    You could be there for hours.

    Clocks Ticking.

    It's almost August and so the first round of the MPL is almost upon us.

    If Rivvy can't muster 10 shooters from their amassed numbers I will be very dissapointed.

    RMTC is a very small and new club with basic facilities, but we will be making the effort and including absolute beginners in our team as we are more interested in getting everyone involved than we are about winning - so come on Rivvy - press gang some "volunteers" into your team and give them some basic coaching and get practising on your new club HW70 ( that's what its for).

    We are doing the same thing here - (even including coaching the tutu clad TC2) as we want everyone we can find to experience shooting with these older type air pistols to discover just how good they really are and to see how little progress has really been made for all the extra sophistication and cash we invest in the new PCP pistols.

    Human power provides the energy to compress the spring or pump the cylinder - but after this small amount of effort ( maybe more with a Webley) the end result will surprise most who give it a go and get some time in with the MPL legal pistols.

    In keeping with the Olympic spirit I think the M.P.L. should introduce Dope Testing.

    Asking some Rivvy members - "Who wrote Beethovens 5th symphony?" should remove a few of the competitors.

    I thought the M.P.L. was organised as a dope ring you know. where we all stand in a circle with no idea what's going on.

    While you have all the team in a circle - find one that can read so he can pass on the rules as per post no 1 on this thread.........maybe you could do it?

    ........only four weeks left to swat up and find out what to do - better hurry!

    I refer my learned colleague to post #62 re my recent efforts at Rivi despite constant undermining by your moles.
