Obviously all depends on weather and numbers.

But don’t forget, club members can book the range 7 days a week for a private session.

We are working on a list of .22 ammo that’s subsonic and some .38 .338 .308 .50 subs thats also allowed.

Drop us a DM for a particular sub cartridge if you’re interested in shooting on the range.

Thank you!

Sign the petition against Section 1- Section 2 merger Sign the online petition urging the Government not to make shotguns subject to the same licensing rules as rifles. Forward this email to all your shooting contacts asking them to sign the petition too.

We have had a few enquiries about a shoot in December. Although it could just be for the mince pies! So please pencil in Sunday the 7th. We will confirm on the Friday before if we get enough numbers and the weather is looking good.

SECTION 2 GOING ?
So the Government has announced that they will have a public consultation on the progress of whether to make Shotguns come under the same legislation as Section 1 Fi****ms. This will be the biggest swipe at the shooting community in the last 50 years.
The shooting organisations have already prophesised that approx 40% of the Shotgun License holders will just give up and not bother renewing. The Gun Trades Associations are also thinking the same with shop closures and redundancies.
What this change of law means to us is that you will have to get permission BEFORE you purchase another Shotgun not as now where you buy one and then register it with your local police force. You will have to seek permission to use your gun on land not already authorised to you. There will be other restrictions that have as yet not been divulged .
BUT....I hasten to add all is not lost. It is going to public consultation which means that us License holders can have a say as to why it shouldn't go ahead.
That is the easy part. The hardest part is to get EVERY person involved in any aspect of shooting to declare their support against this law change.
There are many, many thousands of people who are entitled and qualified to make their feelings know when the time comes. It is important that WE, YOU and I make sure that we spread the word amongst every facet of the shooting world.
There will only be ONE chance.
If everyone sits on their hands we will be doomed forever. The thin end of the wedge.
One of the major shooting organisations has 150,000 members. Their biggest ever vote by the membership was just 50,000 only a third. If we don't do it for ourselves, it won't get done. Copy this and paste it on your own/and your shooting sites.
Write to your local mp please
Best wishes to you all.

Members, join us tomorrow for the rescheduled club day, start at 10.30am. Weather looks great!

Unfortunately, due to high winds forecast for tomorrow, we have taken the reluctant decision to cancel tomorrow’s club day. We’re moving it to next Sunday 12th when the long range forecast looks much improved.

If you would still like to shoot tomorrow please book privately with David.

Thanks for your understanding and hopefully see you all next week!
