The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Hello Everyone,

I got my first air rifle (well a smooth bore Daisy BB gun) when I was 8 or 9 years old and shooting has been a passion ever since. I flirted with shot gunning for a while, way back when you could hold semi's. I enjoyed my Remington 1100 but it was always rifle shooting that held my real interest.

I've held a FAC for 30 plus years, except for a short spell where I gave up shooting due to the commitments of young family.

I currently have 7 rifles plus an open slot for another 0.303. Hopefully a No.4T.
My rifles range from a 0.22LR Sako Quad to a tactical 0.308 built by Dave Wylde with a SMLE, K98, Speedmaster and a 6.5 x 55 Sako 85 in between. My collection is finished off by a lovely Martini Henry which I thoroughly enjoy shooting.

I shoot at a club in Aberdeen where there is a great bunch of guys and gals. Always helpful. Always friendly.

I enjoy reading the Forum posts and will contribute with a few of my own now and again.

Thanks

Welcome Mossy , it's good to see a fellow AFBGC member on here .

Welcome to the forum Mossy, it is always good to hear from people with some older rifles. Now you need to post some pictures!

Thanks I will post a few photos. I'm abroad at the moment and not home again for a few weeks but I will get some taken.

Hi Mossy

Hi Mossy .... welcome to FBUK!

Hello and welcome

Thank you all for your welcome messages.

Ovenpaa,

Have been trying to attach a couple of photos of my rifles but keep getting the following message:

'The image file you tried to attach is invalid'

Probably not the right place to ask this question but not sure how to raise a general query.

Any ideas?

Mossy
