welshtyke 0 Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 (edited) If I was to consider an air gun for when I was out after rabbits with my bassets, what would people advise. It probably will also be second hand Edited November 9, 2011 by welshtyke Quote Link to post
ryan666 64 Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 your going to get every possible make and model said here lol best thing to do is go to your rfd and get your hands on a few and see which fits/feels best to you then give it a go! most rfd's have a range and you should be able to try before you buy Quote Link to post
davyt63 1,845 Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 hi buddy filling in your profile,will help at least peeps will know where you are,and how far you are from a try before you buy Davy Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 I would say try any of the following first down at your local gun shop that is within your price range: A PCP from BSA, they do make springers but they are not one of my favourites, saying that others love them so maybe have a try and see. A springer / gas ram or PCP from Weihrauch - Out standing, you wont go wrong with any of the full power range. A PCP or springer from Air Arms - Out standing as above A PCP from Falcon, Daystate or Brocock - all excellant rifles but some can be very expensive. Si Quote Link to post
