  • Really well balanced show

    The GunsOnPegs podcast covers shooting issues and gives airtime to general rural interest topics in a really joyful way. Bringing in guests that absolutely know their onions but might otherwise not be widely heard is a speciality. George, Chris and team also champion the countryside and its way of life in an increasingly urban world. A top-quality listen!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The "Monster" Pheasant Episode
Q: Why is it important to discuss accessibility and mobility on shoots?
Because opening access through adaptive gear and thoughtful planning allows more people to participate, expanding the community, supporting inclusivity, and highlighting the broader social value of field sports.
The "Monster" Pheasant Episode
Q: How can colleagues who are not in the field sports world be encouraged to try shooting activities?
Organise accessible, low-barrier experiences such as clay days or sim days, provide behind-the-scenes estate insights, involve food and dining to connect the sport with lifestyle, and share practical, safe entry points that emphasize conservation and community.
The Research Shoot Episode
Q: What's your opinion on general license level?
You can effectively control crows to protect songbirds and eggs, but rooks have been taken off that list.
The Research Shoot Episode
Q: Can you just give us a very brief explainer on what the Allerton Project is?
The Allerton Project is 320 hectares, and it's a demonstration farm in Leicestershire that was gifted by Lord and Lady Allerton in 1992 to the GWCT.

Q: Do I start them on a 4'10 or a 28 ball?
It's a dilemma parents face when transitioning children from air rifles to shotguns, with many advocating for the 28 ball as it is more forgiving.
