Capreolus club

[Magnificent 7]

I feel sorry for anyone who asks a perfectly reasonable question like "Capreolus Club...Any of you guys in it or been in it ".

This guy has recently joined the forum and has asked for advice from anyone who is a member or has been a member. Instead he gets the usual negative responses from members who are not members and have not been members. If this thread moves the usual direction then we will soon move onto how its a waste of money to get qualified through DMQ (DSC L1/2) and how this doesn't make anyone a stalker etc. As far as I can see there are only 3 people who fit this criteria, the original poster who seems encouraged by what he has seen so far and 2 other guys who are on balance positive about the club.

I have no connection to the club, I am not a member and have never been a member, nor do I know anyone who is a member. But I think we should all try to put any preconceptions about clubs or syndicates of this type to one side and let the experience of those who have actually experienced it come to the fore.

Sorry, bit of a rant but this forum is going to be the first port of call for many who want to get into our sport so I personally think we should be more objective & encouraging (where the topic warrants it and we have first-hand experience) and less negative and subjective/opinionated (where we don't have any first-hand experience). Lets try to encourage more people into our sport rather than put them off at the first hurdle.

Anyway, just my view and I am sure many will disagree.

Big pat tbh I've the measure of .cost of the ones posting comments and if you look back at some of there posts on most threads they dont have much good to say about anyone.Just to put the record straight I dont need any pds ect or land to obtain my firearms tickets I've full open ticket up to 300 magnum dsc 1 and 2 and also AW I am not a millionaire and the cigar smoking and port swilling doesn't rock my boat.I work hard and also work away from home my passion is deer stalking I stalk every weekend at home on various land some syndicated and some free some could say in addicted to it it's my thing I found the club and liked the look of the ground its ideal for me i can go after work rather than sit in the digs Put this into perspective a gym membership in london is possibly the same cash lads that smoke they possibly spend the same smoking football any hobby is expensive especially the deeper you get into it Yes I have a Blaser but I worked twelve hours a day to buy it and dairnpkay to anyone else who does thanks for everyone who has made some decent comments and also PMS most helpful as to the soap box gang go troll someone else as I left all that at school years ago .

Out of interest what do you mean by you needed help with the fac application ?

Just moved from Ireland and had no permissions for applying for my multiple rifles and shotguns. Joing the club was a very straightforward means to an end.

The way I see it is when people put up what rifle, optic, knife or whatever piece of equipment you can think of should I buy? At the end of the day nobody wants to see anyone ripped off, it’s your money and you spend it on and how you want. Not saying it’s a ripoff just the way I worded it.
