It isn’t just the start up cost, once you get into it, you have to “feed the beast”.
LOL--That's right....
I’m also new to shooting I buy all accessories online.
Eye protection - £9.99
Ear plugs - 30p
Gun slip - £12
Gun cleaner - £4.99
Bore snake - £4.99
That is ALL you need accessory wise spend more on your gun/cabinet/cartridges
As a novice shooter having taken up the sport just a few months ago, I found this very helpful. Thanks.

What does it cost here in Florida let’s see.
$200.00 Remington 870 to start.
100 Target shells for $20.00.
$15.00 for a case of 107 disk clays. And $10.00 for a cheap shotgun case.
Total $245.00 walking in and out of your favorite outdoor store the same day.
God Bless America!
Point taken, although you'd be throwing those clays by hand then, and leaving the gun dirty at the end of the day!

Love living in the US . I have a Barrett 82A1 so much fun . Not much fun feeding it but still fun!
By far the best channel with all the info you need , thanks guys 👍🏻🏴
Thanks for a great comment and glad you enjoy the channel.
Good presentation. I kept within my budget and got the gun I wanted as well. I got my Browning B725 Sporter from Ling Shooting near Wellington Somerset Husband and wife team shooters of Olympic and Commonwealth medal winners. Excellent advice, guidance and a really friendly family feel to the school. My gun was fitted to me perfectly and am looking forward to many shooting days there. I will also have to pop down and see Clive at the North Devon Shoot to which I have visited on many occasion over the last few years to do some shooting. Again another place I would recommend for a day out for a shoot absolute first class people, the wife and I have had many a lovely afternoon in the sunshine with our dog. Rest assured taking up this sport is not that expensive I have done it on a budget of around £1600 and that includes licence fee etc all in and ready to enjoy. Good luck to all of those out there looking to start!
Thank you this video is very informative and helpful
Thank you very much for doing this video I have started shooting again after 25 years how things have changed
All the way from Texas watching and love the channel. Overseas we have the same popular belief of starting a sport/hunt is way too expensive. I completely agree it can be done without breaking your wallet.
Good honest info
If you just want to get into shooting then there are cheaper ways.
BUT if you want to actually Get into some kind of Sporting Clays game, then I totally agree with David. Going to a shop that helps you train you and fit you to a Quality kit is going to be money better spent. Personally I don’t like buying things multiple times. I would rather save up and buy quality gear that could be used for years to come. Then later on as things are wearing they could be replaced with something of nicer quality if needed.
I also prefer shooting at gun clubs where I don’t have to unload, clean up and load up. Just shoot and enjoy.
My son’s starter kit is a browning silver 20ga with everything else cost around $1000. And it’s worth every penny to shoot with him and to see him so excited busting Clays!!!
good video & very informative in the present time however when i started with shooting , which was over 40 years ago i started with a single barrel belgian hammer gun
The very first shotgun I bought for general purpose I picked up for about $200. Stevens 320 pump 12 gauge. Then moved on to a Tristar Setter for $400. Shooter's pouch for about $10 (No way am I wearing the vest. Other guys can pull it off. Not me). Sporting clay ammo for about $7 for 25 rounds. Annual club membership for about $150. 25 clays for about $5 at a time. It's something I wish I had taken up a long time ago.
Truly another great video from TSC on what's good to have BUT not really great on price advice unless you're going to commit to getting serious. just FYI, Shotgun Certificate, aside you can get everything else for around £200 including the gun in the UK. Ebay and peacocks auction house Bedford or similar place. Safety glasses from B&Q £4, ear defenders from army surplus store for a tenner plus a cartridge bag or if you prefer a dump pouch or respirator haversack. at auction I've seen a great over under with ejectors go for 95, a side by side walnut stock £45 and a .410 bolt action single shot for £10. Not really applicable here but just saying. Obviously you wont get someone fitting the gun for you but I don't have a tailored suit either and it works well for me. I'm thumbing up as although you can get cheaper the video is great example of what can be required perhaps "WHAT DOES IT COST TO TAKE UP SHOOTING IN A CLUB ENVIRONMENT" If there's a young gun out there dissapointed that it will cost you loads to start, Just take the pricing suggestions with a pinch of salt if you just fancy some rough shooting in a less formal BUT LEGAL environment.
The bit about a criminal record isnt quite true, it depends what the record is for and how long it has been spent.
Here in Australia, to buy a decent, new starter collection of mid-range guns:
1. 22LR rifle
2. Centrefire rifle in 308
3. Over/Under 12G trap/clay shotgun
4. 357 revolver
5. 9mm pistol
You need to add licensing and course fees, decent scopes, cost of the safe, and ammo, you will be looking at 10k AUD (about 7k USD). Our firearms and ammo are incredibly expensive. These would be mid-range guns. Top of the line steel and glass would be triple the price. Obviously cheap or pre-owned will be about half the cost.
Section 1 FAC app 4th October granted 4th november 4 weeks very quick at the present
I applied for my shotgun licence over 7 months ago and then COVID 19 came around and I’m still waiting now and I’m watching videos to get what I need
i'm in the same boat applied in January, apparently my application has been processed but the FEO needs to do a visit and they aren't doing those yet. fingers crossed it won't be long before they start doing them again.
@@flyshank have you had anything yet I’ve applied and had nothing ?
@@jamesp1205 I got my certificate in august or September last year once we came out of the first lockdown
Hardest part is getting someone to vouch for you to get your SGC if you dont know anyone
If you have multiple different home addresses can you keep gun in any of them when staying there, or does it have to stay at your main address 100% of the time? Thanks
Also where I live in the US there are Not any stores that that provide the customer service that these people at the Oxford Gun Club seem too!!!
Here people want to save a buck by buying at box stores with no personal service or knowledge.
“It’s good enough.” I would pay more for this long lost Customer Service!!!
Hi Thanks for your nice comment if you would like to email me you can at david@oxfordguncompany.co.uk I look forward to hearing form you Dave.
is it mandatory to have the gun safe bolted to the floor or other object?
after shooting 15,000 shells a year for 5 years, i break 50 out of 50 alot and around 97 out of 100 targets..i don't want to compete in these high dollar shoots,,so where do i go next with this sport ?
if you really just started theres no point spending £700 on a shotgun. use your head and pick up a reasonable one for £300 (you can go even lower than 300 if you want true budget gun)
I could watch this for hours
does this still count if im in the UK for international clay shooting with a team?
Must I buy a twat vest?
Lol
Its tweed not twat-
lmaoo
No gayer then the queen of England
@@MjrMjr-tt3kn its twat
Said it elsewhere, but even if you spend 4000 quid, amortized over ten years, the kit will not be the most expensive post of this hobby. Travel costs and shells and fees will be, and it can be very expensive fast! Only shooting with high powered rifles are more expensive than clay and game shooting. Shooting on a real budget is either airguns or rimfires.
I've been told by Kent police thay aren't granting anymore licence's and to put in my medical proforma and that will email me when I can apply.
Can you help?.
where can I find you today? I got the permit and got a little help
I really want to start shooting. I’m used to air and BB but due to how bad my mental health has been in the past, I am worried. My father and my husbands father both shoot (my husband has never been interested though! Haha)
I want to ask my dad if I can book in a beginners lesson for clay pigeon with them but I’m worried that my previous mental health issues (where I have tried to take my life)
Best thing to do is book a lesson at a shooting school and then go from there I would give the Oxford Gun Company a call they will be the best people to go to.
Does anyone know the link to bisley website
Hi there
I’m not sure if you will see this
But I thought I would give it ago ,
So I’ve been on a shoot and game keeping for 2 years . I am only 15 I have just brought a miroku 7000 for £295 and Put it on a friends licence I am applying for my licence tomorrow and have been meaning to do so for a while good job I know the FAO I already have the needed kit and the main costs I can see will be lessons and clays the main question is what cartridge would you recommend for me being fairly young ? I’d there a cartridge out there for all round use on pheasants ,crows ,pigeons and clays would a 6 shot 30 work I’m not sure ? What do you think
Your prorably going to need two different cartridges. For clays at a shooting ground the max size shot is normally 7.5 in a 28 grm cartridge. You should check your clay grounds regulations before going or ask them about what cartridge spec to use these do tend to change, it is worth bearing in mind the wad type in the cartridges some grounds now only allow fibre. 6 shot load should be fine for game and vermin get a high pheasant or pigeon load.
I come to Woodstock around twice a year for business. Would having an initial lesson with yourselves be beneficial?
Thank you for comments this is something we could do please email david@oxfordguncompany.co.uk
@ 1:56 is that Father Jacks Gun License?
Very little if you do it like me you dont need very much 10 ponds second hand i do it
£1000 is a bloody huge amount of money mate even the damn license is expensive
licence aside you can get everthing else for around £200 including the gun in the UK. ebay and peacocks auction house Bedford or similar place. Saftey glasses from B&Q £4, ear defenders from army suprlus store for a tenner plus a cartridge bag or if you prefer a dump pouch or respirator haversack. at auction I've seen a great over under with ejectors go for 95, a side by side walnut stock £45 and a .410 bolt action single shot for £10. Not really applicable here but just saying,. Obviously you wont get somone fitting the gun for you but I dont have a tailored suite either and it works well for me.
Sir nice kits .. These r not available in my country pakistan ... But these r so cool i have only hunting jacket .. Not more things .. So i adjust .. What can i do...
Get up to the Northwest Frontier and have the guys in those little workshops knock you out a nice AK47 replica.
Ok, but if I would shot on middle level...or high, I must shoot most cartriges = expensive ;) ....most ammo do competion shooting expensive...which need for high levl... but on high levl on maybe mouting bike you need most ride on bike, but ride on bike not expensive :D. Understand?
This is pure madness i know why like back in my time in the 70tys it was fun no one today other than the rich has lessons no 10 year old has a waiscoat 90 persent of shooters just have fun chris potter guns use to sell guns plus east grinstead guns that i nought from they were 200 pound for many years 5 years later chris had 5 thousand pound guns the money the competitive had hot into it tjats why these numbers are so low theres 1.2 million shooters tjere should be 6 million when after all the extreme over the top bullshit
Sorry sir, but you mentioned you can get a license when you are under 18?? I'm 16 love shooting and thought you had to be 18? Please could you enlighten me
Hi, that's correct, in fact there is no minimum age for a Shotgun Certificate. You can be granted a certificate at any age. Of course the law still restricts what you can do at different ages. Under 15 you must be supervised by someone 21 or over, for instance, and you can't buy a gun or ammo until you are 18. There's loads of info on the BASC website.
Mate I'm 15 and live in Yorkshire uk can i get a shotgun certificate
Yes, you can get a shotgun certificate at any age. You can't actually buy a shotgun or cartridges until you are 18 though, somebody would have to gift them to you.
I don’t think it’s particularly true that you can’t get a license if you have a conviction
Same 😪
I used to go clay shooting and I'd never shoot anything else. But even though I suffer from depression and anxiety, I'm not going to stick the barrel in my mouth, just because I've had a bad day. It's just an expensive toy for me and it's no different to any other toys or tools I own.
My licence ran out a while ago and I think it'll be a massive shame that if I can't get it back because of my mental health.
On that note. No one gives a shit about us Brits when it comes to mental health. No one wants to help us 😡
@@TheManLab7 --- What, you saying that they don't provide unlimited talk therapy on that national treasure, the glorious NHS? They just fob you off with a bit of CBT and some drugs? Perhaps the NHS should let people have sex with nurses on demand. That'd help, surely. You'd have to do it with male nurses though. You couldn't expect the women to do it.
Have to have a license You have to be kidding me
Jesus you brits gun licenses are pretty big in ireland they are just credit card sized easy enough to stick in your wallet.
I know. We have convenience and technology, it's the size of a broadsheet paper. Ridiculous.
....hate...
Where do you keep the information about what guns you own?
It's the same here in Australia. It's the same size as a credit card or driver's licence and made of plastic. It's ridiculous to have an A4 sheet of paper that you have to carry around with you whenever you want to shoot or buy guns or ammo.
The Police love the A4 paper license, why because they damage easily and you get charged an extortionate amount of money for a replacement.
Shotgun license? Not in Missouri. I can buy a gun in 5 min and go shoot it immediately. Lol
I live in America and I’m sorry but needing to apply for a license just to shoot clays is nonsense!!! Way too much government over reach!!
Dont worry. You will have bigger goverment so you will have also license for breathing ;)
In Europe we have big gov, they want to ban leed in sport shootin. They are marxists from Brusell. ;) they dont like mans with any kind of gun.
In UK you can have problems when you have small knife in pocket.
@@michal.abramowicz there are even some states like Missouri where there is no conceal carry license required. I bought a shotgun the background check took 10 min. Then i was out shooting. Lol
What’s his email
Check the description mate
what a fanny on, i think i'll just speak to the shady bloke down the local see what he can get me
Really you only need +300 u need a gun, and some ammunition thats all
cartridge bag, ear protection, gun slip, safety glasses.
