Simoman 110 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Last chritmas my sister and brother in law bought me a new air rifle, now its a Chinese model and I can't remember the name although I don't know of thats my memory or shame Over the summer the gun has accounted for numerous species including rabbits, rats and a huge number of feral pigeons I got a scope fitted in July and the guy in the shop told me it was the worst gun on the market, I replied it probably was, he told me there was no probably. The scope cost me 45 quid, apparently the gun retails for 30 quid My friends have posh guns like Weirachs, Webelys and BSA's but all I can say is my cheap gun manages to get its fair share of quarry and I actually enjoy it. Apologies for the quality of the photo, my camera skills are as bad as my shooting :whistle: Quote Link to post
gibby 0 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 You know what they say, "a bad worker always blames his tools". So in this instance it just goes to show that its the person holding the air rifle that really counts! Nice going mate Still, I much prefer shooting with my stepdad's Weirach (which is on permanent loan to me at the moment)...! Quote Link to post

Simoman 110 Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks for the replies fellas, the results with this gun have increased since I read Darcys airgun book. I tried some of the pellets reccommended and they seem to have improved the guns ability. Quote Link to post
