12 Tables have been booked by the following sellers...
...Edit: anightrains also booked a table

I thought this was going to be a small affair, now looks like being a similar size to last summer's Fayre! I might need to save a few more pennies in anticipation.

Good to see Brian's booked a table, long time no-see.

Can those selling on the day pm me or post on the thread a list of some or all of the rifles/pistols they intend to bring. This should give a flavour of just what's on offer on the 15th

Thanks
John

Hi John,

I will kick this off with these;

Maybe a couple more when I have a dig

Obviously everybody should be aware it is bad form to contact via PM etc. before an event like this, I will not answer any such messages, if you see anything you may like on this post, or on subsequent posts by other sellers attending, then get there early on the day!

Best Regards John,


Ed

Many thanks for the pics Ed. I am looking forward to seeing these.

I have just had a pm from another collector who is going to bring along around 30 airguns from his collection to sell

I will not list each rifle/pistol but these include a collection of:

Early Air Arms rifles

Japanese and American pneumatic rifles

German, American and Spanish pistols

Old BSAs

and quite a few others

He attended our previous fayres and I have to say his prices were very good and the condition of his guns was excellent

Don't forget to bring along a rifle for the bell target competition, we do have a club 300S if you forget.

An Airsporter S in .177 (superb stock and finish)

A BSA Mk2 Airsporter in .177

A boxed mint Walther LP3 Match

Weihrauch HW45 in .177 boxed
plus other guns (yet to be decided)

various scopes and pellets

Some lovely photos posted by Edbear. Chrystal clear with sharp definition. Can I ask what camera you were using. ?

[battyone]

After seeing those offerings I'm definitely going to have to make the effort.

Back permitting I look forward to meeting a few of you.

I can almost walk to the Bike museum on the sunday

Hi, I use a Panasonic point and shoot, and have a really high regard for them, I have access to Canon dslr stuff, but honestly the Panasonic performs better in most situations, especially low light unless you want huge files or raw images.

I have had three over the years, first a TZ5, and since 2 TZ 7's...I managed to trash one by dropping it 40 feet, and the one I have now is an identical one bought off the bay boxed and mint with extra cards and batteries for about £80 delivered.

Takes short high def video too, has a great lens and macro setting etc., so great for close ups, plus is childishly simple to use.

Actual camera here reviewed;

Always loads on various sites S/H, and at the prices they are a total bargain, and you don't have to stress to much, mine goes everywhere with me!

Sorry if this is a bit off topic, but have been asked before and people are always surprised that you don't need to break the bank to get good photos!

ATB, Ed
