    Hello from the Wirral

    Hi there, been around the forum browsing for a while having taking up clays a few years ago but i want a change so thought it was about time to say hello.

    I like the looks of the hft scene so will have to start researching.

    Any advice is most welcome.

    thanks

    WOW. Three years from joining to first post. That has got to be some sort of record.

    Registered when I was getting into guns and went for clays. Now turned to air guns for a new challenge and because it's cheaper.

    I've been to fort in north wales which looks a good setup. Thought Grange was for poshies but may take a second look. Just looking for a friendly environment

    Hi Tom and welcome. if you fancy an introduction to air rifle shooting, would be happy to meet you at North Wales shooting school one day midweek. You would be welcome to borrow a rifle if you dont have one yet. Les.
    Is there such a thing as owning too many guns?

    yep, thats a bit long. i registered when i was getting into shooting and ended up doing clays.

    will have a look at grange and maybe get myself down to nwss. Have been to fort in north wales and that looks like a good setup.

    just picked up a aa s510 yesterday but have to wait to next week to get a dive bottle

    As already mentioned, Fort Air Gun club wouldn't be too far for you. I'm not a member but a mate of mine is and they have a good UKAHFT section.
