    Just wondering could someone recommend a few stores up North. With the current economic situation a trip North could be very good value

    Well as its Christmas myself and the brother want to buy a few shooting accessories. Namely wild fowling gear (chest waders, decoys, callers and so on)

    I also want to buy some SportTac Peltors.

    So can anyone recommend a few big stores up North likely to stock the above?

    Thanks in advance, pm me if ya want

    EDIT: I'm aware there is probably better value on-line but due to time constraints etc I'd rather get them in a bricks and mortar store

    Of the top of my head Vegeta there is Donal McCloys in Toome on the northern shore of Lough Neagh. Brand new massive shop. And being beside the lough is filled with decoy stuff. Im hoping to drop in as well some day as Northern shooters are feeling the pinch too so want to see what bargains he has. Plus you can do the Christmas shopping and a booze cruise at the same time! :D
    They are still setting up the website but here you go,

    Only thing is I think they are closed Saturday. :confused: Maybe they are out fowling?

    Jimbo,
    NYC not much,as it is a gun free city:rolleyes:.You have to go either to NJ or upstate New York before you get anything worthwhile in shops.

    Gavin & co at Tannyoky are dead sound. Not too far North either.

    F&S is well worth a visit too if a little further up the road. Bought my first pistol there..........back in the good ole days :(.
