We exist to help you
Plan the best days of your life
Since 2007 when James Horne first dreamt up the idea of an online platform for buying and selling shooting, GunsOnPegs has grown to become the UK’s leading marketplace for game shooting. It is now the go-to website for game shooting enthusiasts to fill their sporting calendar, and by doing so, plan the best days of their lives.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide you with the widest selection of shooting opportunities available through our free platform. Not only this, we continually harness our team's passion and knowledge to support and enable best practice wherever possible in order to create a sustainable future for our way of life for generations to come.
Our values
Aside from putting shoots in touch with guns and guns in touch with shoots, first and foremost we care about a sustainable future for shooting. The team continues to be instrumental in helping the shooting world achieve best practice across the board.
First and foremost, the GunsOnPegs team are shooting people, caring about the future of shooting. The team volunteer in roles amongst many of the shooting organisations and charities and are always looking for opportunities to help the shoots listed achieve better standards, to help safeguard the future for generations to come.
Our promise
Free to use
GunsOnPegs will always be free to buy and sell shooting no matter how large the shoot or small the budget. It is a community with no barriers to entry and access to a huge market.
No commission
GunsOnPegs doesn't fit the traditional sporting agent mould, it doesn’t work for the estates or the guns and most importantly, doesn’t take a commission on any days booked through the platform.
Contact shoot directly
GunsOnPegs wants to make it as easy as possible for you to find what you are looking for. All enquiries sent through GunsOnPegs put you directly in touch with the shoot owner, manager or gamekeeper without the middleman.
How we operate
This is a question the team get asked all the time; “If GunsOnPegs is truly free to join for both guns and shoots, how do you make your money?” - we think people ask this because they’re worried there might be a catch… there isn’t, although it’s kind of people to care about our livelihoods.
The long-term growth and critical mass that GunsOnPegs has achieved now provide business opportunities through advertising and many other income streams. The freemium business model for shoots and guns has ensured the viability of GunsOnPegs moving forward.
