Indians For Guns

Hello to all,

Let me say something about myself.
I am a collector of shotshells and have found this forum sometime ago. I was hoping that there is anybody out there who is capable to help me.
Over here in the Netherlands it is very difficult to find any kind of shotshells coming from India and/or other Asian countries.
Perhaps there is somebody who has some old fired/inert shotshells. Or perhaps you know of a collector.
I have many nice items to swap with and ofcourse am willing to pay postage.
PLEASE contact me.

Thanks for the welcome.

Shooter, as for hunting and shooting in Holland.

Hunting isn´t what it used to be.
About 20 years ago my father was a gamekeeper and we were used to shoot between 140 and 200 pheasants a day. The man he worked for was a great hunter and also had a huge estate in England and in Scotland.
Now we are not allowed to breed pheasants anymore, When we get caught we loose our huntingpermit and guns.
On that same ground we now are lucky when we shoot 15 pheasants a year.
The rest is Hare, Rabbit, Pigeon, Goose and foxes. As for big game it is Roedeer, Deer and Wild pigs.
Everything is stricktly within license and permits.
Leadshot was banned about 15 years now,and we shoot with shells loaded with Bismuth, steel, Zinc, Tungsten and all kinds of mixed metals.

Shooting ranges are common but also on heavy fire of anti gun people and neighboors who complain about the noise.

I hope this is enough info for you.

Again anybody who can help me with old shotshells?????
