Maybe not the easiest for the non-US shooter to get hold of though
Is there an online version?

I'll let you off Rose
I've told Griff where to look.

Actually, from Rhode Island it's about nine hours each way :wink: But while your there you can batch test TENEX as well as watch Bert Brookes, the Chief Range Officer, check your gun for headspace and firing pin indentation.
It's alright Richard I was only teasing you.
I meant that Mac would have to drive 4 hours and I am nearer 6. We
know Bert well (thanks though).
I think Mac was just wanting to find out where to get the headspace
kit for himself

Take a trip to the Eley Customer Range in Birmingham. They have a complete set in .0005 increments from .040 to .046 inches.
Hey Richard, I think it is a little drastic travelling 4/5 hours (at least) just
to check out your headspace
You going to fly over to check yours Come on JV, a few pints will surely do it mate :?:

Hey Mairi,
Sorry you can't store pictures on the forum (to try and keep the bandwidth
down as it's already at about 25-30Mb a day
)You can however do the following
[img=http://somedomain.com/piccy.jpg]
As for the FAQ, it is intended for me to post answers to questions that
appear a lot rather than for people to post in :roll:

Terms and conditions:
1) The For Sale forum is intended for non-commercial posts.
2) Occasional (once per 3 months) commercial posts, from active
members, will be overlooked but I stress the active part.
These posts must also be kept to a bare minimum - get your point/goods
across as succinctly as possible please.
3) Anything that does not adhere to the above or anything I, or one of the
moderators, deem unreasonable will be removed without notice :!:
Sorry for the stern tone of this post - just trying to keep the forum on
track and what it is intended it for - airing shooter's personal views and
opinions :roll:
Happy selling

Hi John and welcome to the forum.
I have to point out a couple of things though:
1) The For Sale section is intended for non-commercial adverts. I
don't mind the odd post (and I mean "odd") as long as that person is
active in the rest of the forum and helps answer other shooters questions.
2) This forum is being run for free and using my bandwidth. I do not feel
that companies should gain free advertising at my expense
If they want to pay me, well that's another story :wink:
John, please do not feel that I am specifically targetting you - this
message applies to all members with a commercial interest in shooting :!:
Edit: This was probably not made clear from the outset of the forum, but I
have changed that now - click here

Hey guys and gals,
I'm away until the 8th of January (in South Korea and Thailand 8)) and
just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New
Year.
Until I return, Mac is acting as the administrator.
All forum-admin@stirton.com email will go to him for this period.
Please be patient if you register and cannot see the shooters forum for
a while as it is the festive season and all
Have a great festive session everyone...
Neil

Have you:
[*]registered?
[*]emailed me - forum-admin@stirton.com - to ask for access?
If you have done both of the above, then please PM or email me and let me know your problem.
Thanks
Neil
-
Also, when emailing - forum-admin@stirton.com - can you also include
which disciplines you do and where about you do them?
Until you have done this you will not see very much on this board
Thanks
Neil

Back
That's why.
You are seeing a cached version because the PHP is not actually reloading
off the server but just the local copy that's already on your hard disc.
Either click on "Stirton.com Forum Index" or the stirton.com forums logo
to bring you back to the front page - do not use back if you want the
highlighting of new posts to work correctly.
-
OK, but it has happened a couple of times and on different machines.
Ok, I take your word for it Ken - next time it happens can you let me
know roughly the time and which forums it does it to.
Thanks
Just a thought, do you use the back button in your browser? Or do you
click on Index each time?
-
No not my new hairstyle.
During the last couple of days I've noticed the wrong thread as being highlighted as new. The front page has been OK, it has been the second page that tells me a thread has been updated, but it hasn't. When I come back out of it, the correct thread is now highlighted.
Hi Ken,
I've not noticed this but I shall keep my eye on it.
It could possibly be that an older version is being cached on your
machine?
Try forcing a refresh if it happens again - keep me informed.
Cheers
Neil

Hi Pete,
In the topic jump menu you cannot click on the "Target Shooting" because it is not a forum, but the name grouping all the shooting forums
together.
You have to pick a specific forum such as "For Sale".
Thanks
Neil

Should be working now. Swines at my ISP had mapped a directory and not told me :x
Mac
Yeah, yeah excuses excuses!
Now if you want a proper job done, you know where to come
And you will get fast, reliable and yet competitively priced web hosting
that is currently knocking over a 1/3 off the response time of your
current host 8)

Hi Neil,
I have a pair of Champion frames you can have/try/give to charity/give to worthy junior shooter. If I give them to you, you must pass them on for the same price (sod all!) when you have done with them.
The frames have two rifle shooter lens holders and a single eye shade.
Also included is a Knobloc pistol shooter lens holder and iris modified to work with the Champion frames (I had previously upgraded from Knobloc)
Give me a call when you get into the UK and we can sort you getting them to you.
Hope you are enjoying the land of the rising Yen.
Graham.
Thanks Graham, you are too kind.
I'm entitled to stay here on my VISA until October next year but I may
have to come back to the UK early next year for a month or so to drum
up some more business
I hope you can "reserve" them for me

... I've got a funny shaped head!

Thanks Paul for making me jealous.
When I return to the UK I will be looking for some frames, as to exactly
which kind depends on the deal I can get :wink:

It's been over a week since the clocks changed but just about everyone
(in the UK) still has there timezone set to GMT + 1. The UK is now back
to GMT, so can you all please go to your profile and change your timezone
appropriately.
For those of you not in the UK, can you please change your timezone to
reflect the time difference between yourselves and the UK.
Many thanks
Neil
(Currently at GMT + 9 in Japan)

Neil; the count of the number of messages on the home page appears to increment by three for every new message....
....e.g. it was 351, then 354, then 357 when only two messages were added in between. (probably 360 after this one gets in)
Have fun - how long are you going to be in Japan?
Hi Martin,
Don't worry, it's not a bug - there are a few forums hosted here and
depending on which group you belong to, you can only see your specific
areas. So somebody in another group will have posted and you just won't see it
It will just have been coincidence that the post count went up
by 3 both times when you were watching it (if that makes sense) 8)
I'll be in Japan until the end of August / beginning of September
next year - ahh so much to do in the next week and a half too
-
-
On the index page at the bottom, everyone except admins are showing
up as green - only moderators should be in green text and normal users
in blue.
Ahh sigh, shall look at it some time 8)

Din't quite read Richard's post properly, I was thinking American National Shooting ... :wink:
Yeah, ANSI do have a website but a fair bit of their info requires
membership to view it ...
An article vaguely related ...
