Thinking about getting this from country way gun shop its £160 with a package deal scope pellets and a gun slip I heard the trigger is bad any advice on how I could change it

Bought one for my Mrs, trigger is appalling! Sent it to Welsh Willie, trigger now way better than the rest of the rifle.

Hopefully selling it this weekend, have now got her a hw99s in .177, should have done it in the first place.

this is like the thread we had at Christmas. If you can put a bit more in, or go for something second hand, you'll get a much better product.

You'll love your first gun regardless of what you have, mine was a scruffy BSA Meteor.

If you start with something quality, you will learn the skills of a lifetime.

And you can get an HW99 for £200

If you start with a Weihrauch, you may still have it 20 years on.

Mole. Mr willy said he'd looks at the trigger on a, basically, £100 stoeger? Fair play man.

You can get a drop-in trigger blade from Welsh Willy (Woodfield Guncare Products). The rifle will still be crap, though.

 

If it's the Stoeger scope in the bundle, that will be crap too. The mildot blobs are so big, you won't be able to see a small target at 30 metres.

 

Go for a Weihrauch HW99s or HW30s and you won't regret it next week -- which you will do if you buy the Stoeger. The 30s can be delivered to your door from Holland for 159€ plus 20€ shipping, and you'd need to add a scope. https://www.db-schietsport.nl/en/air-guns/weihrauch-hw30s-45mm.html

That one's 9 joules/7 fpe, but if you're interested, email Dave Butler there and he can get you a 12 fpe version, should be the same price.

Good choice. You won't regret it.

[Steve Thomson 24]

Is there any way I can get a silencer on the 99

Or you can fit this and then have a wider choice of silencers. Check it will go over the foresight grooves though.
