Bought this last week for £50, its a edgar brothers mod.60s with a hawke eclipse 4x32 scope. When i got it it was miging and had previously had camo tape on and after a couple of hours elbow grease i was left with this

Looks a good buy, that mate.

I have a couple still. A Theoben Rapid 7, Weirach 97K, and a Webley Nemesis and Tempest pistol.

My mate and I always talk about them, shame they're so hard to use anywhere these days.
His dad has loads, and is always buying more/repairing/modifying them.

What's the plan with yours then?

ye, ive got a SIP 02146.

i cleaned it up. Sometimes i shoot it in my workshop. its great to fire at circuit boards, cleans them right up and is pretty accurate and very powerful.

My gun. Close range efforts. Two rabbits so far, however I have been playing with a 12 gauge, like so:

I have also been getting into using a .22 rim fire rifle. I'm lethal with that thing, 7 rabbits over two outings.

Yer 12 guages are alot of fun but ive not got a licence hence wby i was only allowed to have 1 shot till i buy my own, ive not got a rabbit yet as the ****ers either spot me or the fields are dead

I'm quite lucky, I'm allowed to use said shotgun/rimfire on the condition that I am with the owner of said gun. My mate owns the guns and he is effectively teaching me all the ins and outs of shooting, like stalking the rabbits etc. I'm getting pretty good. The only gun I'm not allowed to use is his .17 rimfire. That thing has a mile and a half range with the right ammo lol. I shall be getting my own shotgun and licence at some point in the future, however I have a nova to rebuild lollol

This is my Dads. He has a few lovely shotguns and I have been shooting with him a few times. Might see if he wants to go shooting again at some point as not been for a while

My dad has a few nice shotguns, too.

I used to enjoy it when he/we had land to shoot on. He isn't too bothered now.

Still keeps his certificate up to date though.
