Hi Guys, just signed up to the forums upon a recommendation from a colleague who is an experienced shooter.
I have done a bit of shooting in the states and really enjoyed it, and after many discussions with my work colleague, I decided to venture into taking this up as a hobby.
Based down in Portsmouth, and have already kicked off my registration process with South Hants Rifle and Pistol Club.
So far, mainly interested in full bore/calibre rifles but will no doubt begin in the 22lr realm.
Once I have my probation under my belt and FAC in hand, I am aiming for a AR style 22lr and Lee Enfield no4 mk1 within 2018 and then will be looking into straight pulls and/or bolt action 223 and 308s to follow in 2019 once my proficiency in shooting, maintenance and general gun handling improves. Provided the 'boss' approves of course
Lots to learn, hence being here!
Regards
Whisky

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!

Welcome fellow AR 15 owner (potentially)
Do a search for AR threads so you know what not to say and who not to upset.

Thanks all for the welcomes...
Haha... Thanks for the tip Gazza! I will keep that in mind although I hope all AR15 owners are not 'delicate flowers' and can take a noob slip up
