My thoughts today

Knowing we will have labour party how big I don't know but my thoughts on gun ownership and licensing we know they will up the price of around £40 I think
Making us pay full cost
With that Cooper woman proberly home secretary who hates guns I believe
I have gut feeling they will keep putting it up until it a £1.000 or more
Hence people giving up and not renewing
In other word a ban through the back door
No one will be able to stop them if a large majority the organisations won't have a cats chance
Just my thoughts

I'd tend to agree. Easier to limit our freedoms than tackle real issues that would benefit the country as a whole. There's going to be wokery like never before.

Dude people are getting older. Its hard work humping deer over the hills.

Kids aren't interested. Can't blame them, if shooting is operated as an old timers closed shop they will just go do something else instead.

Plenty posts on here from people trying to work out how to get a start in the sport. I have been doing this a long time and even I despair at the crap shooting facilities and the desire to exclude rather than include. I have thought about binning it several times and just going shooting more clays. It would be easier to do that than keep plugging on. The budget is only so big.

Yeah kind of agree I've put 50 years into shooting so much have changed and it ain't getting easier if it gets silly money renewing I will probably give the rifle up and keep the shotguns I'm 71 so one more renewal might do me we shall see
