thanks morena i dont feel so bad now
JAYB a question for yourself and others who have a multitude of rifles ,is this so when you get ready for the days shooting your rifle will accessorize with what you are wearing.
ie for instance this time of year you will be wearing your drad brown waterproof clothing so you need your CZ .270 with the walnut stock stock and brown leather sling to match to make the complete out
or in high summer you use lightweight realtree clothing so need to accessorize with a 6.5x55 sako 85 with matching synthic stock and mod cover even camo flip up scope covers.
perhaps if going stalking with others will you like my wife when she goes out in a group. they ring each other up to see what everbody is wearing so you dont clash.then go out and buy somthing new just in case
example
MIKE -"hi dave fancy a day on the sika stags tomorrow"
DAVE-"who's going mike "
MIKE-"me you and tom
DAVE-"oh im not sure mike i've got nothing to shoot with, i cant use the same rifle i used last time i was out with tom , i cant use the same rifle twice also it clashed with tom's gun
MIKE-"you will be ok dave no one will notice"
DAVE-"its ok for you mike you have a gunsafe full of custom bla bla bla rifles so you wont clash with anybody. i will ring you back in a couple of hours after i've been down the gun shop to see if they have anything new in.
THERE IS NOW A MAD 4 HRS OF GOING THROUGH THE GUN CABINETS , SHOUTING AT WIFE ABOUT NOTHING TO SHOOT WITH THEN DASH TO SHOPS TO BUY SOMETHING NEW.ITS THEN A FASHION PARADE IN THE HOUSE ASKING DOES THE NEW RIFLE MAKE ME LOOK FAT HOLDING IT AT FUNNY JAUNTY ANGLES.
to stop all this problem i have found a fantastic site
www.claires.co.uk now this will save you a fortune with buying new all the time you just accessorize you clothing and your rifle to match that what i do.
for example i have a few strips of cammo scrim netting i tie a few pieces to the rifle then add a few acents of the same cloth to my belt pehaps around your arm or even a shawl --hey presto i am fully accessorized.
i am looking forward to the replies ........neil
