    Know the feeling Toby, not sure I will even bother with a license this year, maybe chase a few pheasants on the family place and leave the decoys in the cupboard.

    Gutsy bugger taking it on by himself. I gotta ask did you score the pig or did it get away?

    So the new rules regarding magazine fed shotguns. They have to be plugged so no more than 3 shells can be loaded (2 magazine, 1 chamber) - otherwise you lose your shooter. What's the deal with the plugs? I guess they in any H&F store?
