We are calling it a day

Had a good experience with a gun shop or rifle maker? Found a good deal? Tell us about it. Had a bad experience, TELL THE GUN SHOP!

Forum rules
Posting of negative comments in the Gunshop section could bring unwanted criticism on the forum, having said that it is important to let members know if dealings with a Gunshop were less than ideal for you. To that end we will allow what will be known as the 'Scotsgun Ruling'

The Scotsgun Ruling:

>Add Gun Shop here<

"As I've yet to have a 'positive' experience there, I'll refrain from commenting further."

Beyond that please take it up with the Gunshop, if you do resolve the issue in a agreeable manner let us know!

This rule applies to the entire forum.

Happy retirement.

All the best.

Sorry to hear of your eyesight. Give it time to recover then see what you can do, & enjoy that. If more sailing I suggest get a cannon for it!

Cheers Matt, the hard part is actually getting rid of all of the stock and machines right now and I am quite looking forward to locking the door and walking away.

Only now I'm reading this. Sorry to hear about your condition and difficult decision. Your shoulder bump gauges, base to ogive gauges and cleaning rod guide have served me well over the years! Hope you enjoy your well deserved retirement and continue to enjoy life outside the workshop :)

Sailing is a very civilised activity, provided due care is paid to forecasts and seaworthiness. Enjoy!
Careful now/that sort of thing
