bauble 15 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I was in a car crash 3 years ago and since it happened my neck has never been the same. So after taking some time out from shooting and missed it dearly, I was offered two guns on gumtree from a advert I had for swaps. First was a HW90k but I had a 95 once and that was heavy. And second was the falcon lighthunter, and with a weight of 5lbs. That's why I went for it. And I think is was a good choice. 1 Quote Link to post
Girlypants 10 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 It was a very good choice and not just because it was light, but look at her, shes a beauty, youll have to find the sweet spot but thats part of the fun on getting to know your rifle 1 Quote Link to post

bauble 15 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Villaman the the HW95 weighs 7.5lbs which is heavier than the falcon. And balls to carrying that around on a days hunt again. Edited April 27, 2015 by bauble Quote Link to post

Girlypants 10 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) i suppose its hard to imagine what its like when you have a bad back or neck and the slightest movement can be very painful, so opting for a rifle to be as light as possible but still retaining quality so you are able to keep this sport alive and to carry on enjoying yourself doing what you love is a very good thing and will always have my support, im very glad bauble you got back into it and hope you get back the enjoyment you once had in the sport Edited April 27, 2015 by Girlypants Quote Link to post
