Forum rules
Posting of negative comments in the Gunshop section could bring unwanted criticism on the forum, having said that it is important to let members know if dealings with a Gunshop were less than ideal for you. To that end we will allow what will be known as the 'Scotsgun Ruling'

The Scotsgun Ruling:

>Add Gun Shop here<

"As I've yet to have a 'positive' experience there, I'll refrain from commenting further."

Beyond that please take it up with the Gunshop, if you do resolve the issue in a agreeable manner let us know!

This rule applies to the entire forum.

This well established and respected retailer is closing at the end of August. They have some big discounts on many lines. Sad to see them go.

That is a real pity. You did need to know where they were though and parking ws always a nightmare.

Shame...another one gone.
Used to go to the Waterside across the road for an after work beer many years ago, and even my old friends wake was held in the Waterside a few years ago.

I used to be a copper at Rickmansworth many, many years ago, was always worth popping in during my grub break for a mooch or pick up some ammo.
people need to support their local shops as much as they can rather than getting everything off the net to save the price of a bullet

Sorry to see them go, purchased many a slab of cartridges there over the years.

Always friendly and helpful - I recall once looking for a particular choke and, one being found in a drawer of spares, just being asked to make a donation to charity in return.

A big loss for shooters in Watford, Ricks, Harrow and surrounds.
