Oh a mk3 service
Bloody pistols
Only good for throwing at things in my experience

I think the mk’s 1, 4 & 6 were the service revolvers? This is very definitely a pocket revolver, smaller overall than my modern snub nose.

As it’s patent is pre 1900 it needs no licence to own or shoot. I think I might get in trouble trying to bring it to the bash though

Nice. I didn't realise it was that small

[Craig-P]

Well, I have finally have a few guns put back together. None of them zeroed yet but at least they're working so I can at least throw some lead downrange.
One of them is a bit different and has been a project I've been wanting to build for the last few years - It'll be nice to give it an airing at the bash.
I look forward to seeing you all next week, lads and lasses.

[flyingfish]

Sounds interesting Craig
Looking forward to seeing what you got
I will be zeroing too
See I can get my excuses in quickly when necessary

I made a few last minute preparations this morning, mainly the HW97. It has been running at full powermfor a couple of years now, so I’ve reigned that in some. I set it at 10.5 as the targets don’t care how hard you hit them.

I then dug out one of the Coenwulfs, a tuned 99 in .20 and a posh frock. We made these three years ago, I kept two and doubt this one has had more than twenty shots through it. I think I’ll bring it just so people people can say “HOW MUCH?!” When they ask how much it is

So the top and bottom from this pic are coming with me

Lovely!

[TonyL]

Yeah obviously you welcome to have a shoot with it T I’ve fancied a 50 well since airgun world reviews some time in the 80’s bit like a 45 which was/is every bit as good as they said it was. It’ll definitely stay at 10 or so possibly unscoped if my eyes play ball .

Oh and boing 😂

Cheers Gav.

[TonyL]

Got myself a .20 today to collect on the way to the Bash
Made in England, none of this foreign rubbish

Airgunaid SP5?

Nah......I'll guess at a lovely Brumbow?

Nicely done, Craigy.

Hopefully you'll get the time to get them zeroed beforehand, too. Be nice to see what you bring along, especially the project rifle.

I bet you have them tweaked to perfection already, Pete.

You off to the club again tomorrow?

[TonyL]

Eight sleeps to go, peeps. - For the Saturday folk.

BOING!

[flyingfish]

The Sirocco and HC are absolutely spot on Tony so they are coming
I am picking up a couple of guns so they will need zeroing and the .20 will need learning but I have wanted to try the calibre for years

[TonyL]

Excellent stuff, Pete.

And I don't think it will take a Bucket Sniper of your calibre (sorry, couldn't resist!) long to learn the .20.

[flyingfish]

And yes I will be at LVAGC tomorrow cramming every second of practice possible in.
Or drinking tea and eating egg and bacon rolls as the mood takes me

[Trumpetier]

Only 6 sleeps
