    Remember inports from Europe over £138 will be subject to import duty my HMRC!

    Not if the paperwork is done correctly and the goods are of EU preferential origin - and stated as such on the invoice.  But Parcelforce get this wrong frequently and have been stealing money for UK Gov for the last few years.

    But they will be subject to UK VAT at the standard rate.

    what do you recommend Mac?

    Go have a look at some videos of finals at the World Championships or World Cups.  Almost all the top shooters shooting with the rifle on the palm of the hand, with blocks varying to almost non-existent (Seonaid for example) to quite deep, depending on body proportions and position.  Most have a relatively simple block.  One that is height adjustable makes a lot of sense given variation in target heights at different ranges - easier to deal with at the front than adjusting the butt plate.

    That's it. does you know where i cant get one?

    These haven’t been made for decades, and are a very outdated solution for shooting standing…. Even in the 1980s most people were breaking them up and using either the block or the metal part and selling the other part to someone else.  I still have my block somewhere, but I loaned the metal part out to someone a long time ago and I’ve never been able to track down where it went…

    Hi all

    Does anyone have one of these they don't need or know where I can get one? Edinkillie have one by Lowey but only for left hand bolts for some reason...

    Because we sold out of right-handed ones, sorry!

    Wow.  Suppose they are an essential service.   

    Not an essential service as you well know, but mail order was permitted - I was shipping orders every single week during lockdown - and transfer of a firearm to a customer who was another RFD was fine.  We have only started with face to face firearms and ammunition transactions two days ago.

  6. These really should be fitted by a gunsmith as even if you buy one, it could be a slightly different length to the old one and that is potentially dangerous.  We recommend against simply buying one and fitting it yourself...

  7. I have a pair of Sauer rifle shooting boots, size UK 12 / EU 47, for sale. These are about five years old, came with squared-off soles which have been trimmed by hand. Seen hardly any use, no more than a dozen times. New these would cost £180 from Edinkillie, happy to let them go to a good home for £90.

  8. Another rifle for sale - this one a factory-selected Anschütz 1907 barrelled action in a Grünig+Elmiger RS III Stock. I selected this barrel as part of a batch in 2013, used by Seonaid at the 2014 World Championships and 2016 European U21 Championships (1st in Qualification; 4th in Final of 3x20).

     

    New this would be over £3,500 - looking for £2,000.
