Cool, I'll see you there :)

Nikko Stirling, Hawke and AGS actually make good budget scopes. You are not shooting over a massive range so you won't require huge amounts of magnification so don't get drawn into the the "Higher levels of magnification make it a better scope" thing. Military snipers are shooting over extreme...

Have you come up with a price range for these yet Dave?? And will you have any at the Cornish RV??

Hi mate, at the bottom of the firecraft forum there should be some drop downs, please check that the drop down in the first box says from the beginning. This will open up 51 pages of threads on firecraft. The forum has had some work done on it and it may have reset your preferences.

Hi there, thanks for getting in touch. At the moment I can't see any reason for you not being able to access that part of the forum. A couple of questions, Are you attempting to access the firecraft forum through a link to a subject directly? When was the last time you cleared your cookies...

You can get Iodine drops, but they are not for purification any more. You can no longer buy water sterilisation tablets or drops that are iodine based in Europe. As to using wipes for sterilising water you'd need to know the level of Iodine in the wipe, you could then bleed all of the iodine...

Hi Chris, yep Dave is normally down for this one and I believe he will be for this one also. I believe that you can pay on the day or you can drop spanner a line. I don't like posting e-mail and such like in open forum so I can drop you a line on PM if you wish. Okay haytor7, it'll be good to...

It's a small event that's run by footsteps of discovery in Cornwall. It's one of the few events that I get to nowadays because of work, but because I will be there as part of Green-Craft I get to meet people that I would have liked to have met through the year. I also get to meet up with those...

I have loads of the things, always trialling to find out what's going to be best bang for your buck. I have Petzl elite, petzl zipka, petzl tikka, cybalight by ring, Alpkit Gamma, Alpkit Viper and a streamlight and they're just the LED ones. I liked the Gamma, but they did have a number of...

Hi Folks, I don't get to a lot of meetups due to work commitments, but I do get to the RV because of work (like a few others on here), I was just wondering who else from BCUK is likely to be at the RV this year?

Yeah that's what I thought. There would be about 18 hours work in there overall, plus cost of materials and shipping to import then shipping and packaging to the recipient and then possibly PayPal fees as well. That would price it at over £300 pounds. Knife makers and leathercrafters virtually...

I am with the others, we do really need more pics. Aesthetically I like the sheath, more pictures of it and the stitching and finishing stitches would be good. The knife looks okay, but I am not so keen on the handle shape. Which Lauri blade are we talking about here (Leuku?). Lauri blades...

Why don't you have a word with some of the makers here, they'd probably make you a sheath that'll give a perfect fit for a very similar price.

I bought some a while ago which had paper / card style stems. I may have bought them in Wilkinsons, but I can't be sure.

Well done and congratulations. Now is when the hard work begins. All you can do is give it your best shot, knuckle down and get on with it. I wish you all the best in your career, Leon.

To me it looks like a modern designer has taken the idea of a lodge and tried to modernise it. Wrong thing to do really when what you want in a hunting lodge is a bit more traditional or rustic.

That's a lovely looking little meths cooker mate. From what I've read it should do you well. The military bashers are quite good if a little large when packed, but having said that they're a lot better than the old poncho's were as they have a larger footprint and pack down smaller and lighter...

You're definitely getting there.:) What's the stove? At first I thought it looked like one of the little esbit sets, but I am not so sure now.

The moor is an exceptionally beautiful place. haytor 7 had a nice day for it. Dartmoor is one of my favourite places in the world, but it's always worth carrying plenty of kit as the weather can change at the drop of a hat. It's not unusual to go up and sit in the rain for days or go through...

Thanks for that. It was a knot that I'd learnt years ago and not really practiced a lot, I may use it a little more now.
