tomburras 2,730 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I love that RWS Excalibur/Simmons Whitetail scope of Tom's. Pity about the prat at RWS who's appalling customer manner put me solidly off buying one. Does my HW80 .22 and long-out-of-production Simmons Whitetail 3.5-14x40 AO count for this group? She and her scope are both pushing 19-20 years old now...But still beautiful... I wondered that after posting my pic, I was at work and diddnt read the start of the topic properly. I hope 20+ years counts? Or am I in trouble for been too modern? Hope not lol. Quote Link to post

Jonjon79 13,358 Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 Well, here's my contribution - being a pcp, I guess it's probably more of a modern classic. Rough estimates put this .22 Falcon FN12 at around 22 yrs old. Being a bit simple myself, I do appreciate the simpler things in life - this is definitely that and, bloody accurate to, even in my hands Atvb 6 1 Quote Link to post

tomburras 2,730 Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 In that case here's a pic of a couple of my old falcons Got to love fn,s Not much of a picture taker this pic is god knows how many years old! But it's in my photobucket album so thaught I'd stick it up. The sporter stocked one is now owned by my best mate on the promise it came back. He won't part with it and doesn't even consider changing it. Not done owt but fill it with air and shoot it since I sold him it. I keep trying to get it back lol. 1 Quote Link to post
