thetruck 3 Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 ok what do you recommend Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 BSA lightning if your on a budget or hw95k if you have 300 quid for rifle and some left over for a scope unless you already have one, seen second hand hw95k's going for like 170 quid online. Quote Link to post
milegajo 595 Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Or tune it. There are some chaps that specialise in polishing turds...I mean rectifying cheap chinese guns. Oi! Gunslinger! How many of those guns that you recommend have you fired? Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 All of them one handed in my dreams! Quote Link to post
milegajo 595 Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 That gun has a manufacturer rating of 420fps... china-airrifle.com/ProductInfoExhibit/&id=8c2d7aa2-a8cd-436e-adc7-8a766dce8f2d.html Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Right for what you will spend on a tune up kit for that finger hungry Chinese rifle you could buy a Hatsan 55S or 60S, these are a Webley Stingray mark 2. Cracking guns available for around the £100 mark. You can go secondhand, for not a lot more you can get into the Air Arms TX200 (mark 1s are available from around £150) or HW95s (superb break barrel). If you decided to tune the Snow Peak you will be spending about £100 on a tuning kit! Quote Link to post
