Hi all, found this site and it looks like a good place to be and to learn from.

Im currently mainly into gallery rifle, small bore with custom10-22, centre fire with Ruger super redhawk LBR.

having a go at PSG at club level, Im no practical shooter but I am learning and improving.

went to a CSR match a while back and loved it but was experiencing problems with grip and my arms, hopefully that's now on the way up and now starting to look around at putting together an AR15 for some attempted competition in the near future.

Welcome to F-B(UK) Tony, there is a reasonable CSR following here and it is always a source of discussion. I have got as far as getting the rifle but still not found time to compete yet. :oops:

Is Devonshire a place now?
Didn't think it had become a shire, except in movies.

yes your right, Devonshire is infact incorrect, but I like it :)

much like my home of "Westward Ho!" I love correcting banks etc that leave the "!" off

We live in a village called Wootton. A neighbour decided he did not like our village name on his postal address and took to adding 'Church End' and eventually dropped the village name completely so it was 'Church End' and the post code in the hope that it would be entered onto a system somewhere and become adopted.

He eventually moved...

haha yes I love idiots that move to a village and complain about the farm smells or the church bells.

yup westward ho! is only place in UK to have exclamation mark in name

hopefully I have just added a marlin lever action to the collection, now to find a cheap AR15 :)
