It is on the list and I will be building them mid next week, I have an order for 12 units from one private customer alone!

I finally got sorted and had a couple of hours of much needed range time. :shakeshout:

It's been far too long between shoots and it was good to get some lead down range. Range report to follow.

Tracked down a .22LR conversion for the Glock 23 we acquired.......junked all the holsters that came with the two Sig P229's....Fobus and assorted other crap....

Hope to get to Basspro or Cabela's at the weekend to get some CCI mini mags ($140/2500), some .40cal PMC or Magtech and source some bargain .308. Also need some holsters and mag holders...and check out some pistol cases.

We had BORE TECH cleaner highly recommended, not sure if it is in the UK yet..

Went looking at FORT KNOX gun safes ..serious kit and found a bargain source...great discount.

Been spraying bullets all over Scotland instead of Bisley!

Sunshine and shooting, it doesn't get any better. I could do with swapping my magpies for vees.

Or inners?

Anyway, one happy GOM here.

I have changed primers and later today I am going to be testing Federal Match primers and their AR-15 small primers. Going to be shooting 2 x 5.56 AR-15's and 1 x 6.5 Grendel AR-15, Tikka 270WSM, Tikka .308, Lee Enfield No4 Mk1 with peep sight (first time) to start off with. If I like them I'll try them in other rifles as well.. After which I will be heading to Jays Sporting goods to pick up some tumbling media and Hornady's One Shot lube.

By the time I get home my wife should have all my rifles thoroughly cleaned and put away and my dinner on the table. tesnews. Well a guy can dream that part can't he? kukkuk

Went to Thorn Range in Bedfordshire for some long range .22 at 100yds, and some casual airgun blatting. After we got to the range I remembered that my scope mounts have imperial-size screws securing them, and of course I'd left my imperial allenkeys at home.

.22 target rifle at 100yds was good fun though, especially on a range with virtually no wind. Productive day!
