We have a new member and we are having problems fitting him into a jacket. Does anyone out there have a jacket that would fit a big lad (ex-rugby player) with a chest size of 54". Thanks Simon

When I bought my first "proper" rifle I asked for a bank loan. The cashier wasn't sure but said they would ask the bank manager. He chatted to me about the sport and was astonished in that I was needing about £600 for a rifle (I was also wanting a jacket and scope too...). He authorised the loan and insisted that he have a look at the rifle once I had bought it. Once I got it from Tom Colvin I had the fun of taking it into the bank and asking for the Manager... He became a member of the club and shot for a number of years.

Could we add to the rules that the seller must edit the first post to say that items have been sold. I don't think the OP can edit the topic title to say sold which would be the best option... or a job for a moderator?

Anyone got one of these loafing around in need of a new home? Its the one that fits non Centra irises... Thanks Simon http://www.edinkilli...tml?cPath=44_46

I know you are busy at the moment..... The reason I can't upload may be this message when i try to upload "Used 2.05MB of your 2MB global upload quota (Max. single file size: 32MB)" Simon Ps - Good Luck to you and the rest of the team

I am unable to upload a zip file to the forum. I have tried using both the flash uploader and the simple one. I get the helpful error message of "upload failed". I also tried the unzipped Excel file but with similar results.... Simon

Neil, I don't know if this is a problem with Facebook but I have tried over a couple of days with the same message! Simon

Griff, The Facebook links are the private ones and you need an account to load them. If you sign into Facebook and open the album there is a line at the bottom of the page to enable you to share the link with anyone in or out of Facebook without an account. See the screenshot below for one of my albums Simon

Does seem to be faster to display pages using FF 2.0.0.20 and also with IE6 on a slow broadband and slow PC. Good result Neil!

We have one of these as a club pistol and we have found it great to use. We get about 180-200 shots per refill of the CO2 pistol cylinder. Even when the pistol cylinder is almost empty it shoots true but the symptom is usually that the pellets have trouble punching neat holes in the paper! We recharge from (as suggested above) a CO2 cylinder provided by one of the club members who owns a pub. The large cylinder lasts us about 1-2 seasons. To ensure the correct weight of charge of liquid CO2 into the pistol cylinder one of our members made a simple balance which allows the correct weight to be checked very easily! The secret of a good charge is that the pistol cylinder must be very cold or you only get gas transferred. The easiest way is to fill the cylinder and vent quickly and repeat until the cylinder is frosted before check weighing.

On behalf of a club member who has given up FOR SALE BSA International MK 1 - make me an offer! If not sold it will be handed in for destruction. It is in very good nick for its age (for those not familiar see here). This is the one with the non floating barrel.

Sold!
