    Never been to the Blackburn club though ! Which is strange because I work in Blackburn ???




    3 covered sheds with small wood burners, two main ranges and a pistol range as well as a small pistol and rifle HFT course and a carp pond!

    The pictures don't do it justice but you get the jist of it.

    Great place to be member, and although I'll never hear the end of it Alakar (Alan) does a selfless job helping everyone get the most of it.

    Now theres an idea. Apart from the regular, monthly HFT event held amongst N W clubs called The Gauntlet, and the 10m pistol compts between Rochdale & Rivi Im sure we can squeeze in another fun compt.

    As been previously stated were are spoilt in the North West in the amount and quality of the airgun club available. I can think of a few. NO particular order - B'Burn Outdoor, B'Burn R.& P.C. (Audley), Bury (Fusaliers?), Bolton (Nortex Mill), North Manchester, Tawd Vale, Oldham (outdoor and indoor clubs), Leigh, Atherton, M.A.D. (B/pool), Rochdale AGC, Rawtenstall R&PC, Oak Leaf (Whalley), Sandhall,...... Im sure Ive missed some. ALL provide airgun enthusiasts a facility.

    Try them ALL before you decide.

    I notice you have failed to mention those tossers at Rivington Mr Jones. That club is full of weirdos anyway.
