WhiteHawk   10 #172 Posted October 31, 2015 After being stood unused for at least 8 years, I finally got my Webley Raider topped up with air the other day. Now I just need somewhere to use it!  Can anyone recommend anywhere? I've seen the range in Rotherham that has been posted but I'm in S36 so would prefer somewhere closer. There's plenty of countryside around here but as I understand the law now, I can't use my gun within 50 feet of a footpath/road?

I've just looked for this on a website and it seems a little unclear. From what I can tell it does include your own land, but only if it causes upset.. Reason I ask is that I use my garden to shoot in, but neighbours around can easily see what I'm doing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Chazndave   10 #177 Posted January 1, 2016 Not really  Don't roll your eyes at me, after that happened to me and as it happens quite often not just to cats I think Its a valid opinion. If you dont agree thats fair enough however stuff your eyeroll where the sun doesn't shine, and your airgun while your at it!!
