Anyone into shooting, and I don't mean cats or buses with chinese rifles.
I am, not shot in ages now though, used to hunt and do shooting competitions (HFT).
Show us your pics..

My modified S300, S400 filling end, adjustable MPR trigger, air arms moderator plus more .
With a MTC Viper scope (not much better than these without spending over £600.)
Anyone else?
Edit: my carpet isn't filthy like the picture makes it look.

Yeah used to shoot game.
12 Gauge Silver Pigeon FTW 
When I was younger I used to work for a local shoot. Was good fun and meant that I got a couple days shooting for free.
Also used to hammer the clays over the summer 
Now all my shooting is on CoD

yeah you have to join a club for 6 months. buy a gun cabinate, then the police come and interveiw you and look at the cabinate, then you have to have a mental health check, I might just sack it off
or get a mini uzi off one of the local gangsters

You looking for a rifle then?
I never got into that tbh. I much prefer shotguns 
I am just waiting to be in the financial position to get myself on a game shooting syndicate. And buy a range rover so I fit in there

I was gonna get a MP5 thats been converted to .22 and single shot, dont see the point though if you have to have them modified like that the UK gun laws are nonsense
might try find an M16 as they fire a .22 round anyway, just has to be converted to single shot then

Whats the point of either? specially if your going to get them .22 converted.. and the M16 isnt .22 anyway its .223 considered full bore so its in a different league to a .22 rimfire rifle...
If its target shooting your looking to do there will be better designed rifles than both of those available probably at half the cost of either...
and as fair as gun laws being crazy... nothings crazy nowadays with the things people are capable of doing
