    The UBC & Airgun World Story So Far

    Hi all

    Been a while since I've posted here in the Air Pistol Section. However it is only fitting as the UBC back in 2008 asked for the Air Pistol Section to be born


    I have moved my Airgun World Magazines from one area to another and so I thought I'd do a story so far>>

    Since 2011 we have not missed one Edition in Airgun World, sometimes with two articles in one Edition. So far that is a total of 169 articles with two awaiting publications. Our articles range from Reviews of a wide range of products, Shooting Shows, technical items, Competitions and even an Airgun Wedding. All on the basis of safety, honesty, integrity and fun. There is a dedicated Thread where it lists every article that we have done >> HERE << And constantly writing articles like the new Umarex Hk416 A5


    Pictures for this thread can be found on our Instagram Page:

    We are really proud of ourselves in what we have achieved! Thank you to all that support us, being that of the writers, companies, families and friends. We also appreciate the great feedback that we get too.


    If there is anything that you would like to see written or videos on our YouTube Channel please let us know.


    Kind regards
    The UBC Team

    Must admit, the UBC articles tend to be the first ones I look for when opening a freshly delivered issue.

    All are very well written and it is clear the writers know their subject.

    You've also swayed me to buy some models after reading a review!

    Long may you and the UBC team continue contributing excellent articles Paddy.

    Kind regards,


    John
    Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
    Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.

    I haven’t been on the UBC site for ages, somehow I got locked out, the TapaTalk system can be very unforgiving. I must re-register under an assumed name and get back to the competitions.
    I stopped getting AGW a couple of years back, switched to Airgun Shooter, but now that has gone under they offered subscriptions to AGW so I will be taking it again from next month. I look forward to catching up again.

    Hi Eric

    Yes Tapatalk is very unforgiving and something we really never can get to grip with..

    Hope to see you back in the competitions

    Hi Mike

    Thanks, we are still ticking over.

    Funnily enough, we was talking about you when I shown pictures of your articles that you done for us. Obviously all good and you are missed.

    Hi Baz

    Once a member, always a member. Though we have not heard from him for some time now, as he did stop the shooting.

    reckon I should reach out and see how he is.
