Are any one of you into shooting pistols? I know it is banned in the UK, but in Denmark where I am from, it is perfectly legal to shoot pistols for sports.

I've done it abroad and did have a few air pistols, really good fun, shame we can't partake

I've always fancied doing a bit of shooting but thought it was expensive to get it into, how much would you say it costs of a gun for example to go clay pigeon shooting?

My only experience of shooting a gun was in Thailand a couple of years ago, fired a few rounds of a Glock 9mm (I think), was good fun and I wasn't too bad either. I went back to Thailand last year and at one point the plan was to have a few days in Cambodia, there's places over there that aswell as handguns, shotguns and AK-47's, you can fire an RPG or throw a few grenades, madness! Sadly we didn't end up going.

I was talking to a guy in Thailand apparently there are a good few places you can have a crack with an M60 as well for about $1 a round

Let me do it from a helicopter and I'm in

M60 would be ace
Guns I wanna fire before I die...

Bren, I can strip one of these now quite well so I'd like to empty a clip or two.
Mg42
Gatling minigun
.50 cal sniper rifle

That'll do for now.

Yeah they've all sorts of guns you can fire but it does tend to be more expensive then people crack on, I paid about £30 to fire 10 rounds of the glock, shotguns and AK's were a lot more expensive but this was a touristy area, go more into the countryside and it gets cheaper.

I recently sold my Weihrauch air rifle.
Advertised on Guntrader I had so many idiots ringing up.

One asked if I would post it to him. When I told him this wasn't possible, he went into a rant saying I should parcel it up and list it as fishing tackle.

An unexpected half day today so I went with a mate to a fairly local gun shop I hadnt been to before and got a new scope for my rifle.

Guy at the shop fitted it for me too and dialed it in somewhere close.

Went for a hawke sport HD ir, red and green illuminated reticle.



He did say my trigger is very heavy so I'm gonna sort that out and I'm also gonna modernise the stock by spraying it black.
He had some really nice rifles in there at decent prices too.
