You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Looking for a present for my girlfriends cousin, were the only two men left in the family now so if we're going to get anything good it'll be from each other!
He loves shooting, spends most of his spare time at the local shoot looking after the birds and helping out in return for free run of the place.
He's got all the usual cuff links/gun cases/hip flasks any man could need. Any ideas what would be good? Up to about 40 quid.
As opposed to the illogical shoot?
😀
Half drunk typing on a tablet 😀
You can never have enough decent pairs of socks or gloves for shooting, I'd say.
Of course, this being HighHorseTrackWorld, it should be a t-shirt saying, "I murder raptors and kill kittens to death because I'm an evil shootist". 😉
I was thinking socks, would sealskinz or the like get him laughed at like MTB spds in a chain gang?
No need for Sealkins if he has proper boots. If he shoots that often, he will have proper boots!
Cartridges..
A year's subscription to the ALF... 😈 Or maybe a nice pocket knife (possibly over budget).
If you know what gauge he shoots with you could get him a boxed gun cleaning kit or a cartridge belt, or what about a [url= http://www.johnnorris.co.uk/shop/ty_310-shooting-stickschairs/12325-gripseat-adjustable-cartridge-collector-seat-3471.html ]cartridge collector seat[/url] surprisingly useful if your mate helps out at the shoots or it comes in simple version without the seat part.
Waterproof wide brimmed hat, book (thats what I've just my bro who loves shooting, towelling scarf to stop the peessing rain going down your neck, hip flask or voucher from local gunshop.
As CaptainFlasheart says, if he shoots a lot or is enthusiastic he'll own a decent pair of Musto's or La Chameau's so no need for sealskins or suchlike.
How about one of those [url= http://shop.uniqlo.com/uk/goods/072571 ]Uniqlo ultralight down gilets[/url] in an earthy colour for a shade under forty notes? They fit nicely under a Barbour jacket and disappear into the poacher's pocket when not needed. Post free as well at the moment 🙂
Stockings, rain choker? Barbour do a nice pair of neoprene gloves, or I like my Sealksinz hunting gloves.

shooting/beating/outdoors presents?
I was going to say that this'd be fine until I re-read and saw it said [i]presents[/i]. 🙄
Game bag and or game carrier?
High horse decoy?
😉
Either a really nice bottle of Sloe Gin
Or a 'king big bottle of normal gin and some bottles so he can make his own, and maybe a silver fork, Sloes for the pricking of as well.
A nice priest don't see enough of them on shoots. Something like this would be good.
