    Santa what did he bring shooting wise?

    Did anyone get a nice shooting related pressie from Santa? My mrs bought me a lovely old pneumatic Webley Nemesis! Brought back some memories and still a cracking accurate pistol for an old girl!

    For a change this year my present to myself was not shooting related. Instead I got myself a 1980s road bike to restore/rebuild
    WANTED: Next weeks winning lottery numbers :-)

    I had a Discovery ffp 4-16 scope under the tree.

    I also wanted a brothers in arms M4 for a spot of tin can busting but couldn't get one. It's my Birthday soon though.

    Daughter, son and my wife have a habit of finding me an item to keep me out of the way for a while. This year it is a 1930s(?) Original V Millita, 46" long, .177 rifled barrel. So far I cannot find other markings apart from ser. no. Has faults I can see without a strip: barrel detent/lock spring is broken/weak so needs replacing and the rear sight height adjuster wheel is missing. Not looked inside yet but trigger seems OK. Mainspring a bit graunchy ... not fired yet and will look inside first. The last one of these I looked at had some flat nails embedded in the piston washer.
    Happy days.
    Cheers, Phil

    Got a beautiful Relum Tornado, a Bisley barrel cleaning kit and a huge can of Balistol. No comments about the Relum please, I love them.

    Two pairs of binoculars, that's why it's foggy out and likely to be that way for a week.
    Chairgun doesn't take the shot.

    Santa excelled himself this year! I wish he'd brought more arrows though, I have only fired five shots and three are gone forever! I even used blunts on them in the foolish belief this would stop them burrowing

    My present from myself this year was one of those Chinese Yunker copies.. Loads of fun and surprisingly accurate!
    Too many airguns!

    In a battle of wits I refuse to engage with an unarmed person.
    To one shot one kill, you need to seek the S. Kill only comes from Skill

    My other half gave me a 3d printed/carbon fibre moderator from one of the guys on the other forum. I treated myself to an EK archery Cobra 300 siege kit as I fancy something different to shooting airguns all the time. Yesterday I took advantage of the Christmas discount on tactical scopes website and picked up an Accu-tac BR-4 G2 bipod for £265!!!
    One shot, one kill. Not luck, just skill.
