    hey people. i know its illegal to use a detachable silencer but i want one to use for the back garden to keep the noise down in my springer. i have already stripped and lubed the the gun and i must say, that heavy tar stuff worked bloody wonders for the twang and also recoil!! i just want to further make it quiet but my question is, can i get a silencer but somehow keep my fibre optic sights? i mainly use a scope but like the fact that i have the option. cheers, jerome

    sorry, haven't been able to sign in. maybe the site was under construction? anyway thanks for all the replies guys. its mil-dot and the crosshairs are quite thick come to think about it. could be the reason. wouldn't have thought 4x mag would be different on other scopes though. i have decided just to go for a variable as i already have a fixed scope. its funny you say that you like 6x mag because when iv used my friends, i generally stay on 6 too. changing the subject a little, its about time i got a decent gun and i have got my heart set on either a second hand tx200 mk3, hc or pro

    cheers for the reply edgar. definitely some valid points there. i guess it would be a lot cheaper for a fixed scope and never really thought about eye strain. i still don't fully understand as to how people see the targets so far away with a 4x because it really does't feel precise enough. thank you for your help, i guess the only is to look through various scopes and decide. cheers, jerome

    hello there people. i have almost zeroed my smk 4x40 scope on a .22 smk 19-18 rifle at 30 yards. needs a bit more work as im only shooting 3" groups at that range. anyway, my question is, a lot of people prefer fixed over variable but i cant see why as its very hard for me to see the target at 30 yards, so why do some people prefer it? i used my friends variable and it seems so much easier. i would just like some info before i buy so any help is much appreciated. will be used for target shooting but mainly for small game. cheers, jerome

    thanks for the replies guys. its always shooting too low. with the adjustment all the way up, its still shooting about 2" under! i did cut up some cans to use as shims, 4 in the end and was still shooting low and i didnt want to add any more than that. i was only about 15yards away and been told it needs time for the pellet to rise but am i right in thinking theres still a problem here? cheers for the help

    hey people this is my first post. would very much appreciate any advice given. i have a smk19-18 springer with a smk 4x40 scope. my problem is that i cannot zero it as it runs out of adjustment. i have been looking around the net for adjustable mounts but would like some help. i have come across sportsmatch, b-square and rws c mount and the nikko stirling. first question; the rifle top is rounded and i think this is called dovetail right?? dont want to order the wrong shape. second; 1 piece or 2piece mount? im going to stick to 4x40 scopes. maybe 3-9x40, non licensed rifles a
