Lock Stock Sporting is running the Licensed Shooters Section at this year’s GWCT Scottish Game Fair 2026, one of the most exciting areas of the fair for both competitors and spectators alike. Nestled in the woodland at the end of Gunmakers’ Row, the section offers a sporting course competition with an incredible line-up of prizes, including three Browning shot guns for the top performers.

Whether you’re there to shoot, watch or simply enjoy the atmosphere, it’s a must-visit part of the fair, one designed to bring together the shooting community, inspire newcomers and support those looking to improve their skills.
