    Hi there, sorry to hear this and a while back i was burgled myself so i know how your feeling at this time, i was at work and they nicked all my fishing stuff as well as everything else that wasn't nailed down, what bugs me the most is that every town and village etc will have their fair share of scumbags who make will decent folks lives a misery and the courts dont seem to take their offences seriously, most of the time they get off with less than a slap on the wrist...

    I don't know you but I'm really sad to read about your loss. Adding to Paul's offer above if you need a scope in the meantime I can let you have a Nikko Stirling Mountmaster 3-9x40 mildot on extended loan. I'm not using it so if you lost it it really wouldn't matter so don't worry about that aspect at all. Let me know if I can help.

    Burglars are scum!!! I've spent 300 on an alarm, 60 on anti snap locks 50 on floodlights, 40 on other levers and about to spend 200 on cctv. And I live in a good area, I'm paranoid about the bastards getting in. If they broke in while I'm in God help them. I could have bought another gun with what I've spent. Police are more interested in catching you doing 34 in a 30 zone!!
