Guns ammo & safety equipment

Guns are available for hire at only a small charge to license holders (to cover wear and tear). Of course, you’re welcome to bring your own gun if you have one and have a licence.

Fibre wad cartridges are available to buy at £5.50 per box of 25. If you’d like to bring your own supply, please note that we only allow use of fibre wad cartridges on the site. This rule is in place to keep our landscape clean of discarded plastic casing.

We supply basic eye and ear protection free of charge. It’s advisable to bring your own protection if you have it, for your peace of mind.
