    Hello Boingerati
    I’ve nocked up a TIN CAN ALLEY type target,which can be reset from the firing position.
    By way of a pull the string type thingy.
    It’s nothing elaborate,but should provide something a little different.
    So bring your repeating pistols and rifles .

    That sounds spot on for pistols, I'm bring two, neither are repeaters though.

    What kind of distance are you thinking of setting it up at ?

    Let's see a pic Les and that sounds perfect for an RR (although they can't fan as gravity fed), not able to go this time otherwise my Beretta would probably like it too.

    Because turning up in a leotard, tutu, wig & miners boots and saying "I'm a lady" wouldn't give any advantage at all, it would still be nigh on impossible.

    Damp & cool Saturday morning, which might be a boon for those who need a bit of a lay in Warming up later.
    we've had around 30 degrees here all week... and yes, I'm in SW London, not Lusaka right now

    I'm setting off first thing friday morning, before it gets too hot !
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Unfortunately I still haven’t got it together regarding putting up photos.
    I was thinking 10 yards for the pistols?.
    The tins are baked bean size, but the range can be increased for the dead eyed dick’s amongst us (Craig P).

    He borrowed them from Paul which is why he only has so few.
