Off Topic The Burly Arms

I remember going to some activity place one time with my lads when they were younger, and you were given rifles to fire at targets. Only problem was my firearm discharged by 'accident' - the instructor wasn't happy and I got barred.

 

How old are you like? You’ve needed a licence for a shotgun in the UK for over 100 years bro

 

The football pitch “

 

63 and what has licenses got to do with ordering from a catalogue?

 

63+22

 

nah not a football pitch, I remember one designated green and it was away from houses, so you didn't get caught having a scrap. Although I still ended up get hauled off by some adult one day, can't remember what happened, I think a complaint went into the school and I got a bollocking.

 

I put 73 and never read

 

Does anyone remember those “ Fake “ guns you could buy ?


Looked like the real thing and just had copper cartridges in them .

I used to dream of having one . Not these days though , and I’m 32 !

 

Think he's getting mixed up with these

Had a revolver as a kid that looked the part. fired plastic caps which sounded the part too. They don't exist anymore

 

Yes . You could buy these things from a catalogue along with knives fake rifles etc .

 

um , no…..

 

Still , at least we aren’t talking scented erasers……….

 

Had a few gas guns.

Always had a catapult as a kid, murdered loads of windows.

Had a crossbow taken off me by the police too that i never got back.

And officially im not allowed to buy fireworks ever again

 

Mine was bought from the local toy shop mate "the Magnet" on Ashton new road.

 

This was my go to weapon back in the day

 

I always think of the old guy in England that was on his roof at 1.00am fixing his sky dish that got killed by one.
Nobody ever got charged for it.



EDIT...........they did actually get someone for it.
