We aim to give everyone the chance to try new activities that they have seen in the Olympics and elsewhere but have not had the opportunity, until now.

During my last full season I got through about 3,500 12 and 20 bore shotgun cartridges, Q, what do I do with them, A, turn them into fag lighters and flog them on a well known auction site!

Anyone recognise the ghostly image? yep it's the new "c" word Covid 19. if you want some payback come and see us in the spring and have a go at my new targets.

Experience has shown that some of our younger guests struggle to cope with the BSA Meteor springer air rifles, so when I saw this it was a "no brainer" It is a "Victory CP2" bolt action co2 pistol, but the clever thing is that it converts to a rifle by fitting a rifle stock and longer barrel. All abs and so lightweight, I have bought a couple of them, they will be put to use next year and if they are a success I will have to purchase more.

Here is another offering from Webley, it is a launcher for mini clays. It is all metal construction (all the others I have seen are made of plastic and cost more) and was made in Italy for Webley. The title is mini launcher, this refers to the clay targets not the device itself, this was made some time in the 70's as you can tell from the blurb which states " your wife, children or girlfriend can launch scores of clays simply and safely." The only drawback I can see is that mini clays are the size of ginger nut biscuits and travel at 90mph when launched.

I will be re opening in the spring of 2021 so I am trying to think up an increased range of activities. From the air rifle shooting I know that cans are always a favorite target as when you have a hit
there is a satisfying clang. So, I have bought these two gems, they are Webley target launchers and will propel a can up to 60 yards (55 ish M) using special .22 blanks. The shooter can be presented with a range of targets from bounding to vertical. If you are wondering why I have 2, it's because most shotguns have 2 barrels. As you will see from the pics they have been featured in an episode of the "Avengers"

I was at an antique and collectors fair a while ago when I saw this. I had not owned a Webley junior so decided to take the plunge. It was seized up solid, I managed to strip it down and clean it up and now it works a treat. As near as I can tell the Webley is circa 1948, is smooth bore and single shot, next to it is a 2018 Sig p226 co2 semi auto and magazine fed. It doesn't make you a better shot just makes for an easier life.

Having relocated to Somerset it had been my intention to reopen in small way this year catering for stag parties and organised groups etc. However as we all know these are strange times and as a result all plans have been put on hold but at least I have the time to work on the Trebuchet. See you in the not too distant future.

I hope that the weather has finished with me now and I can get back to welcoming guests. Sarah and Will came in to try archery and rifle. The rifles and indeed all the gear here has a hard life as you can see from the broken Meteor spring, I thought the rifle was down on power.

Due to the inclement weather QTS will not be opening today, the heavy rain and wind conditions we are currently experiencing precludes all our activities. We will be open again tomorrow from 11:00. Still it could be worse!

I am sure that some people think I am taking the mickey when they phone up to ask about clay shooting and I tell them it has been cancelled for today because we cannot see the targets! and to add insult to injury a sponsored ad on my F/b page was for anti glare sunglasses!
