secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Well as I am now enjoying the fruits of my labours I have decided to invest in a new rifle. Thing is the new rifles I like will take nearly a year to save up for. So I returned to an old love, a BSA Super 10. Now I did have one before, but unfortunately after an un asked for change of regulator it stopped working. The person who did the work did not organise a collection of the gun for repair and when hard times hit it was sold off, sadly, but not that reluctantly Well now I have another Mk 3 BB in .177, but this is not the carbine that I had previously but a rather rare mk 3 factory made bull barrel rifle! Boy is this thing quiet. The hammer is quieter than the tuned carbine I had, the muzzle is quieter, it is right there on power, it is a superb gun. Single hole grouping at 30 metres with the ubiquitous Daystate Heavies. I proudly present Dr Evil! Shame there were no rabbits at the permission I went to, but never mind, another time, another permission and this will knock em dead, so to speak!

Bunnyblatter 1,012 Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 How long is the actual barrel mole ? I guess the shroud goes past the end of the barrel by some way Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 How long is the actual barrel mole ? I guess the shroud goes past the end of the barrel by some way About the same length as a Coyote with a silencer on it, no problem fitting it in the gun cabinet. Looks good in there, two Gamo BSA hybrids (Phox and Coyote), the 10 and the Fenman. 1 Quote Link to post

Wildling 520 Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 Mole see if you can still get the adapter that fits on the end of the shroud to allow you to fit a proper mod, makes them deathly quiet! Quote Link to post

I've still got a .22 carbine and a .177 rifle, both MK3's and Blueprinted. Quote Link to post
