Back with apologies

shahid · Post by **shahid** » Sat Aug 04, 2007 10:05 am

Ladies and gentlemen.

I am eternally grateful to IFG, it’s moderators, the forum in whole and Abhijeet personally for allowing me back on IFG.

My apologies to all to were disturbed by my previous mistake, but believe me it was not intentional.

My apologies to those too with whom matters had gone to a personal level. I accept my mistake and I am extremely sorry.

How can I stay away from IFG ? I can’t. Regardless of wherever I stay I am proud to be and Indian and I love my country. I also love shooting sports and I will do everything for its promotion and excellence. Being away from IFG was a sad experience, I missed all those lovely people Asif, Abhijeet, Sanjay, Piyush and so many other IFG members who have become friends.

I must apologize to relative new comers to our shooting sports for they all had seeked information and guidance. Instead of my role as a mentor and advisor to the budding talent, I have spent four months away from them. But boys alls well now and I am here to help you and contribute positively to your new ventures drawing upon the over 30 years of experience with shooting sports and the great outdoors.

There is a greater cause ahead. We all strive towards getting our viewpoint heard and get implemented what is only fair. RKBA in full freedom and justice.

IFG may be assured that my contributions will always remain positive and I will steer away now from any brewing controversy.

Alls well that ends well. Lets all start our healthy discussions again and share our knowledge and experience.

What have I been up to ?

Shooting a lot. Even in the 40 degrees heat, almost twice every week at the skeet range. Shooting sporting clays and the scores have been good. Not paying too much attention to trap shooting of late. And teaching a very beautiful apprentice from Ukraine on how to shoot, She's doing well with the training.

Also shooting with a CZ Cadet .22 LR Pistol at the Sharjah shooting club along with the Anshutz ( spelling ) auto . 22 LR and making rather good groups. SOmetimes when in the mood then 9 mm Luger and .357 Mag but the targets don't look pretty, these big handguns are difficult to control.

Then there's the HW 80 and my Diana Air Rifles that I am shooting fairly regularly.

Off roading has been ongoing in the desert every weekend, I have purpose built a new landcruiser Prado Short Wheel Base 2 door for this purpose, that took quite a bit of my time. In the process of opening two new Woodland stores in Dubai in September and The Great Escape Desert Adventure where we venture out with over 500 Jeeps in the desert is in November. Enough to keep me busy !

Welcome back Shahid,

Hope to catch up with u the next time I am in Dubai....def after the hot season u described.

Very keen on trying out the .357/9mm u have described!

Take care and happy shooting

Hi hunter, but the shooting club and the ranges are airconditioned, so rifle & pistol shooting no problem. It is for trap & skeet that you have to step out outdoors and bear the sweltering heat.

Well I would have hoped that the indoor ranges were airconditioned,dont want to end up looking like a piece of tandoori !!!!!!!

Anyways take care and will keep u posted on when I plan to come there...
