Any interest in shooting HFT in Bangalore?

Post by Mack The Knife » Mon Jun 09, 2008 3:14 pm

For those who do not know what HFT is, please see http://www.ukahft.org.uk/2008/

We can always amend the rules to suit our circumstances, so don't worry on that score.

Interested Bangalore boys and girls please leave your names and comments on this thread.

Also, if anyone has some scrub/waste land where this event could be conducted safely and you are willing to let us shoot on it, in your presence, then please mention this. Ideally, it should be a place that does not draw unnecessary public attention.

Hi!

I would love to join. Though I have only the IHP in .22 without a scope.

I may know a place where we could do this sorta thing. Lotsa trees, shrubs and various other obstacles. Perfect to setup an HFT venue. But I need to check with the owner for consent.

Pls count me in. My contact # **Edited**

I live 3km from electronic city (towards hosur) and there is a lot of waste land (uninhabited 500m radius) with shrubs trees and very little clearing. Will take a look around this weekend to find a suitable spot. Guess we can take off here, next weekend.

Just bought an IHP 35 (.22) today from Kovi shop, JP Nagar for 3800 and i am looking forward for this.

Arun, if that land you describe doesn't belong to you, you can forget about anyone showing up there, leave aside shooting on it.

I have a computer game which has metal targets, running rabbits et al. And I love the game. I would love to be active in HFT.
PLease count me in for any such activity, and am also an eager volunteer for any help that I may extend.

Forgot to mention.
I have a HW77K. Maybe that will do for now, if the distance can be accmodated for Air Rifles...

Now there's an understatement if I ever saw one. :mrgreen:

Do you know any place we could get permission to host such a shoot?

I will try and see if the Eagleton contact works.
What is the minimum area we are looking at?
