Probably a silly question but where is/what is AGL's ground name? I cant find anything on Google other then Airsoft in London.

Would you be open to an interloper tagging along?

Absolutely mate! We said before that we'll organise them and just leave the invite open if anyone from the thread wants to join

Excellent, will hopefully join you. Do you want to fix the details on here or offline?

Sent you a message / email mate.

Could do with a Whatsapp group really that people can drop into and we can quickly liaise locations and times..

I use left pocket for loading and right for empties! Bellows pockets aren't the problem - it's more my ham-fisted fumbling.

Thanks, chaps.

Whaaaaaaaaat?

I've never touched a cartridge in my life. The nice fellow next to me just hands me the other one and it always seems to be full again.
Lord knows where they go when they fly out of the thing after the 2 bangs.







Seriously though. Right handed, bellow pocket on the right full of a box with top torn off and the strap from the pocket buttoned on to hold it open.
Empties, I eat as I go along for sustanance

I was thinking that.

I have Setup you and I and if Celtic agrees, him as well - ph clay shoots

Will make it quicker and easier to organise I think.

Me too, I have emailed Smithy my number. See you next Friday.

Only joking about eating the empties.

I make them into these at home in the barn. Drinks coasters. It takes real concentration and a steady hand. But there are some transferable skills.....

Joking aside, I have found the relatively modest cost for a loader to be completely worth it every single time. Not just stuffing the gun but also local knowledge on each drive.

Sorry Chaps, been out 4 times in last few weeks and out again weds, so think she's going to lock me out if i go on friday as well.

For those interested, there are four of us shooting at AGL this coming Friday.

11am start.

If interested , message me or smithy to get added to the WhatsApp group for details.

We are hoping to do a tour of the big grounds over next summer , and once the date for each is fixed, we will announce here.

The thinking is that it’s a good way for PH clay shooters to get together without travelling miles from home.

If you were to add Longridge in Ledbury or any other south west based ground to your summer tour I'd like to join in for a round.

Based in Cardiff but there is nothing here worth any other PH'er driving for.

That’s the plan, let’s see how it pans out….

If there’s enough interest in a particular ground, then let me know…

[Celtic Dragon]

Heads up for those going to AGL, it’s a fibre only ground if you weren’t aware.

What time are you looking to start.

I’m stationed at RAF Halton (30 mins away). But don’t finish work until 1300, would also have to find a way to store my gun down there at short notice and knowing the military it won’t be as simple as just dropping my gun off at the armoury. (I live in the mess so can’t have a safe in my room. It stays in my house in Nottingham.

I do exactly the same and tbh assumed most right handed guns do this?
It allows you to continue holding the gun by the pistol grip whilst reloading.

Thats a shame. It is hard to make it work for a group of folks, hence the decision to have a tour round.

If you ever want to shoot AGL with some company, message me, Im only 35 mins away.
