    Hi TFoley... thanks for the link will check that out! Have you ever shot in Wicklow in Derrybawn Gun club? I’ve used their 100m range to zero. It’s owned by a friend and has had a nice upgrade recently.

    Hello from Ireland

    @Patrick Thomas thanks for the kind offer sir... and one which I look forward to taking you up on. If you are a whiskey drinker I will bring some of our Bushmills Whiskey which is produced locally. @BlackHillsBob what part did they move to. I am in no doubt whatsoever that they love it...

    @feamir i do like the sound of the Arizona firearms laws! Much less draconian than here. Thanks for the offer I’d be delighted to take you up on the invite next time I am over.

    Hello from Ireland

    I would love to spend maybe 3 months of the year in Texas so have been looking at small holdings with a little bit of land attached.. prices are so good compared to rip off Ireland. I was in Fort Worth, Graham, Cisco, Abilene, Lubbock while travelling about. Particularly loved my time on a ranch...

    Hello from Ireland

    @Colonial Boy yes that always gives people a chuckle that you have to go travel into the South to get to most Northerly part at Malin Head! Sometimes accompanied with lots of head scratching :D

    @feamir pretty much everything here has to be held on a Firearms Certificate which is issued by the police. Compared to USA I guess you could say it is very restrictive. To initially have an FAC granted, you apply to police with all your details, 2 referees (who have known you for 2 years min)...

    Hello from Ireland

    Here is a project I am fettling at moment. It’s one of the ‘Indian’ LLP Besses from Loyalist Arms. I didn’t like the stock colour, found the wood to be too light in colour, this is a darker stain still wet. Little work on the lock too. Found the thread on ‘Indian’ guns to be very interesting...

    Hello from Ireland

    @BlackHillsBob yeah Northern Irish.. I think looking back in the family there are Scottish descendants... certainly with MY surname MacNeil! Yes Northern Ireland is 6 counties and Southern Ireland (The Irish Republic) is 26 counties. There is a border but it’s technically invisible as we are...

    Hello from Ireland

    Thankfully get a good bit of shooting .. I am in Northern Ireland and our gun laws aren’t as restrictive as south of the border, or as UK. Still not as good as the USA though! We are lucky to have our handguns (banned in south of Ireland and UK) but we can’t have any centrefire self loading...
