    Cheeky chappie!

    Hi lads

    Bit of a cheeky request here but.....

    My 300 bar 12L tank is in for testing and due back a week Thursday, the dive shops compressor is currently screwed awaiting maintenance.

    Is there anyone kind enough over the season of goodwill to maybe give me a fill or two on my edgun please?

    Hate to ask but have got critters that need a Killin!

    Around Guildford/Woking area would be awesome guys!

    Many thanks in advance

    I'm sure some kind person will be along soon to help you out mate. Last year I did the same for a chap up near me.

    Are you talking about New Dawn Dive Centre? I the compressor still kaputt? Damn. My bottle is down to 150 bar now. I know you could probably get a fill at the NSRA shop at the Lord Roberts centre at Bisley Shooting Ground.

    Hopefully some kindly soul will oblige

    Hi mate yes New Dawn it is, I was in there on Thursday and she's still awaiting some maintenence works being done.

    I've found on the 4 times I've been to the NSRA shop I suspect they don't like the colour of my jib as on each occasion I've been the only soul in there and they've never offered any form of assistance, good shout on the possibility of a fill there though mate much appreciated!

    Hi guys

    Many thanks to all for offers of help, I contacted Bisley and they offer a fill service for £1 per fill so that'll see me over the next week or so.

    Many thanks again for all the community's offers of help.

    Ive just spotted this. If you are around Reigate pop in to mine for a fill. New Dawn are having a lot of trouble with their compressor-don't I know it- but my cylinder is ok for a bit anyway.

    If you go to the NSRA shop, be sure to ask to speak to Terry Le Cheminant-one of the nicest blokes in our sport and an absolute font of knowledge in all things shooting related. Tel is the manager of the shop.

    I remember reading his articles in early airgun magazine days and thoroughly enjoyed them. Unfortunately my experiences at the NSRA are not the most positive. It doesn't take much to acknowledge customers in your shop and on 4 out of 5 occasions of going to the NSRA we've been totally blanked despite being the only customers in there. No need for hard sell tactics but a "if I can be of any help" let's you know help is at hand if required. Myself and 2 others experienced this and it's a shame but I have air now...fur and feather beware
