Jesus wept, look at the size of that thing !!!

(the gun mates, the gun) :bigsmile:

What is it exactly and where did you find it ?

Reloads or commercial ?

Why does the bloke in the last picture look like he's falling arse over tit ?

Not sure about the clays SC but it was designed to take a raft of fowl.

Graeme its a muzzle loader, four ounces of shot.

Its not bad to shoot, nowhere near a 600 Nitro Express for example, it murders clays, you just need to let them to get out a bit before letting go so as to give the pattern time to develop.

The guy looking as though he's going tit over arse is because he went tit over arse, poor stance.

Thats my daughter shooting in the other picture she found it no problem, mind you she's that hard she crosses the road without looking.

Great fun , great pics.

Any chance of a shot of the gun, particularly the lock?

Biggest I've ever fired was an 8 gauge M/L.
