Hello all,

Post by Blackio » 04 Apr 2020, 20:48

Fairly new to air rifle shooting. I currently have a brocock compatto .177 and a pard nv007. I’ve been plinking a few rats on a local farm where I have a permission. Can’t wait for the lockdown to end so I can get out on the rabbits as there seems be be bloody loads appearing all around the farm. I guess everyone’s in the same boat! But hopefully won’t be too long.
Cheers for the add , thanks Blackio.

Welcome blackio :thumbup:
One of my mate's spoke to his feo and head of firearms on going out doing essential work with crop protection shooting rabbits while in lockdown, he was sent a copy of the basc guidelines, and basically told if he can conform to all the points there should be no problem??
Check out the guidelines then make your mind up if it's essential the country will need cereals this harvest.
Anyway the joke of it is, my mate went out last night, didn't even fire a shot as there were people walking about all over the crops, in the dark, some with dogs, some without .
A good hours drive there and back, and no crop protection because of a load of idiots!!
