Wouldn’t of fancied the postage from Texas anyway. Total scum hopefully they read this not that they will give a damn.

Hi Curious if anyone knows Jasonxx as he has just referred me to an email address ref my wanted ad for an FAC rated BSA R10!!! that was a g mail account too.

Hi All Wondering if anyone is aware of a Uk supplier for MOA precision parts. Looking to do some work on a Stoeger M3000. Any info would be appreciated. cheers Dave

Ok let me know how you get on, Ive often thought of getting the existing stock reworked and possibly coated but part of me wants to keep it as it is due to it being virtually unmarked.

Hi I’ve owned this old 1427 since 2000 I was lucky enough to get it off a guy in Fort William for basically peanuts, his mrs had only ever used it as a single shot target rifle so all the mags were present and unused. I’ve often thought of upgrading the stock to something akin to some of the rimfires on this post, but options seem to be limited so if anyone has any idea of what might fit I’d be open to suggestions. Cheers

Hi Andrew Unfortunately it’s not been out of the cabinet lately due to work and the current events. I may well go the route as described by the burpster at some point. I do regret with hindsight not punting it back to the dealer the first time it did it. Anyway if and when it gets sorted I’ll post it in here. Cheers Dave

Proper bit of kit 👍

Got my replies mixed up there 🙄

OK, I’ll endeavour to find out more as the guy whom the info came from was a serving RUC officer at the time. Either way it is what it is so to speak. Could you explain the post eye relief ?? Question ,Been shooting for a long time now including in the armed forces and I’ve never came across that wording or description before ??? unless it was a typo for pistol !

Post eye relief ?? Excuse my ignorance on that subject, but as i see it just checking now the scope gives full and correct picture from about 12-18 inches out from the eye right up to full arm length !! Hope that helps. As I said it was originally on a Ruger mini 14 so maybe that will assist.

Hi All Bushmaster 2.5-32 long eye relief scope and genuine Ruger stainless 1” mounts. I’ve had this lying around for years gathering dust. Believed to come off an RUC mini 14. Good condition throughout with a few little marks on scope body but glass is perfect, mounts themselves are immaculate. Turret cap is off for pics only. Hopefully someone has a use for it. £50 posted within UK Cheers

Hi Cheers again. Thanks for the information. I’ll stick it up for sale at a not too unreasonable price and hopefully someone can make use of it. Thanks

Hi Sorry literally just finalised sale via pm.

Hi Cheers for the info, very much appreciated. Guess the story of it coming off a mini 14 has some credence then. Cap is present but I took it off for the pic to assist with the ID process. Next question i guess is does anyone have any use for it and does it have any value 🤷‍♂️. Cheers

Hi All Had this lying around for ages, I bought it new to use with a 308 CISM I had. Change of plans etc meant it was never used. Not sure if it will fit other models so I’ve put the model number pic up in case that helps. Cheers £40 posted Sold subject to transfer of funds

Hi All Had this scope lying around for years gathering dust. Was given it by a mate I served with whom had a brother in the RUC, rightly or wrongly he said it had came off a mini 14 !!. Just wondering if anyone had any information on them. cheers

Apologies, thought I had ages ago 🤷‍♂️

Hi Selling my Stoeger M 2000 semi auto 26”barrel 3” chamber.? Gun is in immaculate condition and was professionally converted with a choate mag extension to sect 1 on purchase, 9+1. Great pest control tool and has been super reliable the whole time I’ve had it. looking For £250 which is very little money for what It is.

Problem is Andrew it is totally intermittent. I’ve had it open and manually cocked the hammer loads of times to try and duplicate it and have studied the release etc when pulling the trigger to try and identify any irregularities. I’ve a couple of options left but as I said initially I was curious if anyone else had experienced anything similar. cheers Dave

Hi All I’ve a 522 swat model I’ve owned from new, probs no more than 500 rounds through it. Trigger has never been great to say the least and has from day one occasionally showed a problem when initially cocking and chambering a round, you go to pull the trigger and it pulls through it’s entire travel but fails to release the hammer. Trigger feels totally dead or disconnected, action taken was to re cock and carry on. I thought things would loosen up after a bit of use but the problem is still there. Just wonder if any other 522 users had experienced anything similar??. Also any ideas as to any improvements to be made to the factory trigger units operation. cheers

I was passed a number from another member of this forum and spoke to a gentleman from the club yesterday morning. He said he would get the secretary to contact me that day as they have a shoot on today. Ain’t as of yet heard anything back but I’ll try the guy again tomorrow.

Hi All Just wondering if anyone on here shoots with Aberdeen full bore gun club ??. I’m looking for a club local ish to the Turiff area and have checked out the AFBGC web site but it seems to be well out of date with no 2020 dates advertised. Cheers Dave

Very true but it’s looking like there is a huge disparity in the facts/detail contained within the information that is coming from both the concerned parties !!

Well as had been said In several posts until the facts are out then it’s best to reserve judgement upon what’s actually gone on. But if any other club or organisation has gone behind another’s back to better its own situation at the expense of others then quite frankly it’s a disgusting low trick to pull. If and that’s a big if, the 50 cal club has done what is being suggested then it’s a total snub to all those whom backed what is basically an elite or at least for most a financially unobtainable form of shooting when the drive to ban it was in motion. Hopefully the 50 cal club or at least a member will enlighten people as to how they view all this.

Anyone know the basic outline as to what’s actually happening here. E Mail has been read but the background to it all would be nice to know. You would have thought all shooting disciplines, clubs and organisations would pull together nowadays. Lot of people including myself signed off the petition and wrote to my MP ref the proposed 50cal ban even though I’ll more than likely never own one. As in all things there will be two sides to the story but an explanation from both parties would be interesting.
