NEWBIE in Dewsbury

Post by IL Professore »

all,

I am a bit new to this, but would like to become as prepared as possible.

I live in Dewsbury, have transport, radio communication and a few other bits, any help and advice would be nice, thank you

Wlecome, dive on in, the waters lovely ! ;)

I remember Dewsbury in the early 80s, a sleepy little suburb. Last time I was up that way it seemed to have been swallowed up by the conurbation :(

Hi there, i shoot air guns at the moment. I have a .22 PCP air rifle shooting at 11.5 ft/lbs but is capable of shooting at 20 ft/lbs when i get my FAC

I also have a semi auto .177 pistol as well. My son has a .177 CO2 rifle at 10 ft/lbs and a .177 double action CO2 revolver which also stays at my house.

I have also just started to teach myself basic sword making and smithing skills.
