    Meeting place for Newbies and Mentors - BC

    For those that have little to no experience, this is the place to contact those of us that are willing to meet with you, and let you pop off a few rounds.

    TIME PERMITTING, of course, I am willing to take out newbies for a chance to become aquainted with guns. Contact me by PM (Personal Message) by scrolling over my name.
    Notice that I am located in Langley, BC.

    As this forum grows, more mentors will offer to do the same, and a formal list will be built.

    Hey Dean I think you have seen this topic. Don't know if you can make it or not but in any case, any lower mainland noobs that want to come out and learn or see what a gun looks like in action should check out this event:

    http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum...ad.php?t=96514

    Just a thought. Cheers,

    Howdy one and all.

    At the suggestion of Tootall, I am here to request mentoring in the basics of skeet/trap/hitting flying things with a shotgun.

    I do have about 15 years of shooting experience with rifles and handguns, including military and police time, so am not totally ignorant.... Just fairly virginal to long-barrelled shotties!

    Have membership at PoCo (with RUC), but willing and able to travel (within reason) to meet with any kind-hearted folk who might "take me under their wing" and get me started with the basics of 'gunning things from the sky. I do have an 870 with a 26"VR barrel, and multiple chokes, but it is currently in the shop for a few days.

    I work 4 on / 4 off, and won't be available on weekends until about October 9th.

    If anyone is so motivated, please drop me a PM!

    Thanks in advance... I would, of course, be willing to supply post-shooting food/bevvies!

    Welcome aboard, Nelly!
    Most of my shooting is also rifle and pistol also. This shotgunning stuff is a different bird, so to speak. I try to aim the perfect shot, which of course does not work at all. Maybe an experienced shotgunner could straighten us both out!

    Well im looking to go shoot some pistols/revolvers. never shot one or even handled one before and id really like too. Im thinking about going for my restricted course but Id like to go shoot some handguns first to see if I like it or not before hand.

    Id be willing to drive withing an hour or 2 and also willing to chip in for ammo or whatever else.

    So if anyone wants to introduce me to handguns please PM me.


    thanks
