After posting an ealier thread last night, asking if there were any vintage airgun fans on here. On which Simon (Pianoman) did one of his normal, very eloquent and entertaining posts with regards his past air rifles, he is obviously the type of person this thread is aimed at. So how about about we organise a vintage airgun fair, Bell Target competition and general meet up of kindred spirits for lovers of older air weapons. Where vintage airgun enthusiasts can buy and sell vintage airguns, pellets, magazines, period scopes and other associated items. Plus take part in an organised Bell Targ

I use dome headed pellets AA Field, FX etc. Would still use Eley Wasps if I could get them. In fact I don't know anyone who uses anything but dome heads thinking about it.

Which rifle would you choose?
Grayling replied to KurtH's topic in Rifle Reviews, Technical Help and Tips
Looking at the guns you have listed I'd go HW100 without question, its the best rifle hands down. -
On my favourite Squirrel shoot there are small clumps of very tall and old Oaks/ Beech, Ash trees with thick shrubbery at ground level at various points on the land joined by ancient and heavily wooded hedges of mostly Blackthorn that separate the pasture fields. So I'll take a very slow walk around the land. Not with just Squirrels in mind but Woodies, Magpies, Rabbits etc. Later if that doesn't produce the goods I will sit quietly in a very pretty mixed tree copse behind the farm. Obviously covering my face and hands, this copse is in the middle of a hedge line that follows a small stream. T

It looks like some sort of Deer foot print to me. Hard to tell which though.

Bloody ell Si, I enjoyed that thread, very well written mate, nice one . -
An Afghan diplomat, visiting the United States for the first time, was being wined and dined by the State Department. The diplomat was not used to the salt in American foods (French fries, cheeses, salami, anchovies, etc.) and was constantly sending his manservant Abdul to fetch him a glass of water. Time and again, Abdul would scamper off and return with a glass water, but then came the time when he returned empty handed. "Abdul, you son of an ugly camel, where is my water?" demanded the diplomat. "A thousand pardons, O Illustrious One," stammered the wretched Abdul. "But a

One single line, but doesn't it just some up this country these days. -

I pity you if you missed the 70's that was a bleedin great decade to be a teenager, the world was a very different and much bettr place then. I could carry my FWB 124 Sport to my pest control permission on the local allotment gardens without being surrounded by armed bobbies. In fact I do not think there were armed bobbies back then. Petrol was 60p a gallon and I could take my young lady on an excellent night out in Liverpool town for a under £5. My first car a 1967 Ford Anglia 105E Deluxe cost me £100 and became a cracking passion wagon .

Not what you had in mind but deffo multi shot. The ASI Paratrooper, the absolute dogs danglies to young Scousers when I was a kid or the slightly later Air Arms Firepower, both tube fed mags but one a break barrel and one a side lever. The Paratrooper is circa mid 70's and the Firepower late 70's to mid 's. More collectors items (part of my collection) by todays standards but still great rapid fire fun while slaughtering wind fall apples in the back garden. Air Arms Firepower .22 ASI Paratrooper repeater .22

If you are getting around the 11 ftlbs mark which it sounds like you are, I think thats fine. HW100's can and do creep over the legal limit with use as well, not by much, but enough, a few friends rifles were doing 12.4 tlbs but these were sorted.. Weirarauch do tend to apply a fair bit of grease during manufacture, this excess can impede the rifles working parts at times and could have some effect on the power output, just do a strip and clean if this is the case. But I still think you'll find yours will eventually sit around the 11ftlbs mark with use. There have been low power issues also wi
