The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

We were out with the dogs in the rain and I suddenly realised the Deerhunter trousers I was wearing are as close to perfect as I could hope for, waterproof, warm, wind proof and breathable and all for not a lot of money from a stand at the Phoenix a couple of years ago.

I also have an old Army sleeping mat, the sort which is individual panels in a green material that folds up with a bit of tape to hold it closed. It makes a brilliant and compact shooting mat and I just wish I could find another one for when it is eventually worn out.

So what is your favourite shooting accessory? Rifles and 'scopes don't count.

Now I'm hitting more clays than I'm missing...

My Toggi hat...mate got a bloody nose from clay fragments.

Easy...my dogs. They'll find, hunt and retrieve just about any game i choose to shoot - from snipe, geese and up through deer. They don't even hold it against me when i miss the shot

Oh Marc, your babe is growing up....get here a 4 10!

:)

Marc fine looking dogs, just looks like her sister.

Bnz, looks after me and our gear.

Got to be my Sordins. They are worth every penny I paid for them.

Nothing beats being able to listen in on conversations at the other end of the shooting line....LOL

Tru Spec Combat Trousers.

I hate wearing jeans to the range as they aren't comfortable. I have an old pair of Tru Specs in US 3 colour desert camo and a newer pair in Beige and they are well made, very comfy, quite warm, a little shower resistant and have good sized pockets. Also really great just slobbing on the sofa!

Got mine from USMC Pro who provide brilliant and fast service. http://www.usmcpro.com/

I managed to get my hands on a pair of Crye trousers in Desert Marpat (Apparently!) Anyway they are very comfortable hard wearing and dry quickly if they get wet, great on the range 9 months of the UK year or watching TV. I am however quite selective about where I wear them.

I'm afraid that you will all laugh but - hey - I can get used to that.

My favourite accessory is my hubby, Chris.

Why? I have a medical condition that can make it quite difficult to carry anything even a bit heavy and, bless him, he is quite happy spending a day following me around & carrying everything I can't. Even up to setting up the firing point for me. I consider myself very lucky
