    Sandown park

    I must say Binners Sandown park fair far exceeded my expectations under the current circumstances, it was a great venture with plenty to see and buy, Pete may there be many more.

    Biggest and best springs to mind Kev.

    Got to be one of the largest fairs I have ever been to and what a variety of vintage and modern arms/ephemera on offer.

    Good to chat too!

    Kind regards,

    John

    The best thing about the fair was that I took a table and manned it single handed thus preventing myself from spending.

    I did come close to swapping a left handed air arms carmargue for an FWB300 but managed to resist in the end.

    Many thanks to all involved in running, especially Mr and Mrs B

    That Camargue was a beauty and I almost asked to handle it before realising it was a leftie. Almost made me wish I was too!

    Apologies I did not recognize you

    There were a few who looked dissapointed when I pointed out it was a cack-handed shooter like me.

    Hi Rich,

    No problem as I was wearing a mask anyway!

    I should have asked for an opportunity to photograph it though.

    Kind regards,

    Very kind of you Rich. If you do take some, can you add them to the Sandown photo thread for all to enjoy.

    The fact the original aperture sight was present and those graceful stock curves made for a very attractive air rifle.

    Kind regards,

    John
