Hello from Morayshire, Scotland

[GunnySonics]

Hello, my name is Stu i've just joined the forum. Ive been shooting air rifles for about 25 years, mostly i hunt rabbits and pigeons with a Hatsan AT44-10 or my Wieracht 97KT, i eat everything i shoot, nothing goes to waste.
I've recently left the Royal Navy Submarine Service after 22 years of which i spent in Plymouth where i had some fantastic permissions. At the end of last year I returned back home to Morayshire in the North East of Scotland, unfortunately im yet to gain any permissions in my local area.
Im now a self employed Plumber, Tiler and Plasterer, i just need to get a few plumbing jobs with local farmers and i can haggle my way to some new permissions.
Being lucky enough to living close to some fantastic countryside i intend to get back into bushcraft and introduce my 9yr old son to somthing different to his xbox

Nice to be here, hope to contribute where i can

Hi GunnySonics
Welcome home to Moray and the BushcraftUk forum Stu.
I’ve only bain down Plymouth way once years ago to visit my BIG brother he was in the RM, went to a pub called Daimond Lils very interesting for a young moray loon and a pub that looked like the inside of an armoury can’t remember the name . For shooting you could possibly try some of the stables, I know some of the owners don’t like the rabbit holes all over the place and some are worried that the horses will step in the holes in the dark and damage their legs , anyhow possibly worth a try.

Again welcome home Bro, and good luck with the permissions.

ive been out and about today looking for airgun shooting permissions as this is another passion of mine for the last 25 years, have my own website and all the gear, nothing beats living out in the wild and feeding off the land.
