Well once the house is sorted and garage extended myself and number one son are going to build a Mini Miglia for circuits and hillclimbs.
I'm hoping to protest strongly to anyone/thing trying to take my guns though at the same time :good:

I have held a FAC since 1971 and was a founder member of the UKPSA (membership No. 27 if I recall). I have certainly seen the best of shooting in this country, having shot Practical Pistol, Practical Rifle and Practical Shotgun comps in the 70's and early 80's.

I am fortunate that if I am forced to give up my firearms before I am ready, I have an alternative to fall back on.

I have a love of boats inherited from my father and grandfather and have owned several in my time. My present boat is a 4 berth cruiser which I have owned since 1991.

I would just spend more time cruising.

I'd fill my time with legal challenges to a gun grab while doing my best NRA Charton Heston impression waving around my .22 Ratcatcher (presuming that's all we've been left with).

We've seen a couple of serious pike in the river at Winchester.............
As for the OP, I'd carry on shooting with my Nikons.

As I'm just getting into target shooting I suppose I would have to spend my time doing something cheaper like getting MPs fired.

I use to do archery in the past, but somehow they would allow nasty sharp pointy sticks that are quiet and deadly accurate.
Unless of course I am shooting them
