    My return to shooting

    Hi Fellow shooters,

    i am returning to shooting as a new hobby,my father was a keen shooter,and will be looking to use his old gun,once i have it fixed.

    greetings and welcome.

    You could try Atherton Indoor range. They also provide help and advice as well as range facilities.

    I see you asked a Question In the pistol section but you haven't give enough information to allow people to advise you properly

    What type and model of rifle do you have that needs fixing please, and how good are your mechanical skills?

    Hi Joe

    There are quite a few around here, I'm presuming your talking about sub 12fpe air guns though?

    Try these depending what you like:

    Hope that helps.
