Hi Steve, and welcome to the forum; both you and Pete are both youngsters, only 64! I was 70 just after Christmas and I'm more keen now with the pistols than when my Dad bought me my first gun back in the late 40s, a Gat, and then a when I could prove to him that I wasn't a complete menace in our back garden back in Harold Park in Essex, the joy of having a Webley Junior. I grew up with that air pistol, wish I still had it now, though I concede that my Alecto is a better gun, it's so very addictive. My Missus thinks I'm totally bonkers, "At your age you shouldn't be running around on motorbikes or playing with guns!"
I'm sorry to hear that you lost your wife through cancer Pete, my missus went through it back in 2004, fortunately she was diagnosed in time and she is still around today, but I'm sure words cannot explain what you and your family went through. I hope that the shooting can help you regards Dave.

It's not the destination; but the journey that counts!
You can take the lad out of Essex; but not Essex out of the lad!
