  1. They just don’t care,  I had to send my daughter off to uni to get her out the house and now I’m palming the boy off on the RAF (hopefully) so I will have room/money for lots of lovey toys, after this it’s out with a kidney!

  2. Haven’t been yet, hopefully going in the morning but my wallet heard “shiny shop”, squealed and hid itself, I can hear it whimpering so shouldn’t take me long to find it! Worrying thing is the swines in the shop know I have a trouser accident when I see the AGT Vixen short barrel that’s on the shelf,  it’s only a matter of time sadly.

  3. Had one like this a while ago with a 360 swinger, would come home from a day of driving real ones and sit in the garden with my mate  digging cuttings and grading! I used blown pea gravel or Vermiculite  as ground material as it’s very light, Vermiculite is like bean bag filling (it’s  really used to fill chimneys and make fire bricks with) so very light so the machines can lift it but compacts well enough to make haul roads  and cuttings with.  
    seeing this got me thinking again😂 Looking forward to seeing what you do.

  4. Got Rose ready for her new stock,  after much faffing I finally got a cheap AR stock lined up, and being the dick I am I forgot I don’t have any picatinny scope mounts which means a trip to the shiny shiny gun  shop, can I come back with just the mounts??500FBBA6-5AE2-456F-B901-FC538FC0D15D.thumb.jpeg.7bf21553695ee9593583a3d17049f7b5.jpeg

  5. 16 hours ago, JonnyUK said:

    Yes it was impressive. 

    We were trying to work out if it's in sections or individual slates stacked.

    Couldn't see how deep it goes, I don't think it is just a facia though.

    I wonder if it originally was large blocks of uncut slate which over time has eroded by the sea to appear like thin slate tiles.

    Could not see any sign of joins at all, there was one faint diagonal line but could just have been the eyes imagining it.

    When we do walls like that here in darkest Devon it’s usually individual stones, we don’t use slate like that but similar structured stone, backfilled with mortar at the back of the wall to bind it, looks good but a lot of maintenance for the owner.

  6. Video on YouTube put up today by Houston Jones and Kentucky Ballistics, I won’t put a link up as not sure it’s suitable, but it’s very funny! Kentucky is testing various non-lethal rounds on his ‘friend’😂

  7. AJ, Firstly, nice piece .
    Secondly, what’s your thoughts on Reximex as a owner, I like the look of their rifles and quite fancy one. Been out of the game for a few years and haven’t heard of them before.  All the reviews I’ve watched  say good things but I always take those with a pinch of salt.

    Was looking at a HW110 for a second gun. Got my RM8 Varmint as a workhorse/ clanger but been put off the 110 after trying one out, just didn’t like the feel ( could get used to it over time I suppose) and with the power drop issues still around I’m not that keen to lay out that amount of money and not have 100% faith in it.

  8. I’m actually nearly sorted for the shooting side of things. 
    I just need another scope, another rifle+ scope+ nice bag, 3 or 4 pistols and that Winchester underlever rifle with the brass cases and I’m done.

    Acre or two of land as well!
