The problem i find with clubs is there is never any near me and if there is one they are always out in the country and without transport i cant get to them.

If anyone knows of any airgun clubs near my village (Cuxton) please pass them on i know there is a great looking club in Maidstone but its out of my range without transport i could get a train but that would cost and then its too far from the station to walk.

A long shot i know but does anyone live near me and visits an airgun club regularly and could possibly give me a lift to share petrol money etc.
I live on a boat moored in Cuxton, Kent.

We have an Airgun club in Hertfordshire.
Based on the outskirts of Cuffley, Hertfordshire.
We meet on Monday evenings from 7.30 till 9.30.
Come and shoot on 4 floodlit ranges and a purpose built 6 yard indoor pistol range.
We cater for field target, plinkers, pistol and co2 pistol as long as it is non FAC.
BASC affiliated.
Club link is www.cuffleyftc.co.uk
Still room for new members.

I have just taken up FT again after about 14 years and I am addicted to it already. I used to be know as Pyscio Sue a name give to me by Mick and Pat Dawes. I cannot believe how the guns have changed over the years but the people are still as helpful and as great as usual. I am cannot wait for the weekend even more than normal already, Hello again to those who know me from years ago I used to be a member of Ansty which no longer exists and now I am a member of the Greyhound in Coventry and Purley Chase near Tamworth. oh what fun i am having

Moved to Glasgow from Bristol last year having saved and scrimped for two years to buy my LP10 I now find there is one club in Glasgow that offers 10m pistol and that is on a Friday once a week. Anyone know of any other facilities?
How I miss east Bristol Rifle and Pistol club ....

I wouldnt mind travelling 30 mins or so to shoot....I am in Jordanhill Glasgow.

The best thing I did was to visit my local gun shops.

They were really helpful and told be about a very local to me FT Club - http://www.southdorsetftc.com/

and an indoor range at Dorchester Rifle and Pistol Club - http://www.drpc.org.uk/

Just moved to Glasgow and the only place able to offer me 10m olympic pistol is Bearsden and then only on a Friday, I sure do miss East Bristol...

Anyone know of any dedicated 10m ranges up here? I would gladly travel to Edinburgh if necessary

mawibri,

Try enquiring on the Stirton Forum. There is quite a sizeable Scottish contingent there.

Drop into your local gun shops, they should be only to happy to advise, If there a decent customer focused shop they will have details of local clubs as it's members will form part of their customer base.

Several (perhaps surprisingly). Look at the NSRA Club Finder. Phoenix (New Cross), East Barnet, Roding, Witan (Blackfriars) would probably all class as Central and East.

Couldn't suggest other clubs specifically. Is there no one else at the club that would want to shoot any other time? A lot of clubs have their official opening times, but members will arrange quietly amongst themselves if they want or need to shoot at other times. My club is ostensibly open mostly evenings, but some of the retired members and members who work shifts come down odd weekday mornings to do cards quietly, especially if they're also club instructors who tend to be called on to do coaching in the evenings when novices are in and don't always get the quiet time they deserve to get on with their own shooting.
