    According to the latest from Field Sports Britian the UK government is planning to ban lead before the voluntary phase out as backed by many shooting representatives and organisations over there.

    My conspiracy head would ask 'did someone know something already in advance?'. The representative groups were very quick to roll out thier plan with out due consultation with thier members.

    If i were over there and a member of BASC, i'd be kicking up a stink. They should be fighting against it, not campaigning for it. The UK version of SCOVI.

    And then people wonder why the established orgs like BASC etc are starting to lose members to next Gen groups like Owners Rights Co-Operative or FUN?

    Attitude of "Well nothing we can do about it, we have to go with the times..Sorry about your particular shooting sport being sacrificed, but the majority counts for more... Now gimme my big paycheck! Not going to have you, peasants destroying my rice-bowl" is grinding peoples gears.

    "If you want to keep someone away from your house, Just fire the shotgun through the door."

    It even happened with the NRA in America. A lot of people dropped it like a hot spud and went with GOA.
