    believe it or not -ordinary acrylic poster paints do just as well-easily obtained,to apply, and if knocked about simple to use in touchup. Crikey I even DIYed a wind powered mallard -on its first outing bloody wind was so strong it had a heart attack and dropped off the pole ,but not before I nailed the fat mallard drake that got too inquisitive and swung round for a second look-thats presently doing duty as weathervane on my mancave as my no1 w/p decoy prepares for the new season.cllers -got an assoretment but Ive managed to secure a sctchcall like my late father used and its good for what i want-Im not a great blower,preferring to let my more skilled colleagues play solo and i join the chorus .Im electronic on geese -two callers -boy have i had some fun with those! guns -My escort 12gS/a has been my loyal goose companion for 16+years ,but also im very fond of my wee russian princess the cute baikal u/o wehose spoken word has seen many feral geese succumb to a fatal steel enema as they realised too late what the purpose of my visit was!!Im firmly of the school build your kit to suit yourself ,and adapt it as you see fit.Ammo likewise.I dont shag round 23/4 3 4 5 for ducks(and ferals in U/O) or 3"23 34gm goose loads hull solway magnums my pet load -deadly in the escort.Ive been lucky enough to have been given a quantity of 12g /centrefire ammo so im set for the near future.
