Degsey 28 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 This is a call out to anyone who has been in this very situation. Sounds sinister I know but really need some help.... Since buying my new AA 510S I have been neglecting my AA Galahad we had such wonderful times before 510 came along but the younger better looking model is demanding all my attention and Galahad has been pushed aside. The burning question is should I keep the Galahad for the odd fling or should I get rid and put all my efforts into being happy with the 510 Thoughts please ladies and gents Quote Link to post
just-A-snap 1,269 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Your choice Degsey, but an expensive door stop if not going to be used. All the very best 1 Quote Link to post
mattwhite 1,993 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 That's an easy one for me as I tend to be a 1 gun man....or at least 1 pcp and 1 Springer. I honestly could spend more time deciding which one to use than actual shooting....i kid you not so for me I would kiss the galahad a fond goodbye and focus on the 510 pal?? 1 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,551 Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I`m with Mac on this one To go a step further though, I keep and use 5 rifles' Two HW 100`s, .177 and .22 Two classic springers FWB Sports 124 and 127, .177 and .22 respectively. One modern springer the TX 200 HC mk3 .177. If I was you , I would carry two pcp`s of differing calibre, same with springers. Go back to the old spring rifle for a month or so and watch your shooting abilities/ marksmanship improve then they`ll soar when you revert back to pcp. Never happens the other way round . Good luck with your decision. 3 Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Keep the 510 and flog the Galahad - there'll be enough money in that for a very nice back-up springer and some change 5 Quote Link to post
villaman 9,983 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I am with JJ on this but saying that , always nice to have a back up PCP 1 Quote Link to post
si brown 8,486 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I had a go with a Galahad the other week, they might no be the best looking but it handled ace and made my wildcat feel like a bazooka Just picked up another 510, won’t be letting this one go!! like the lads said get it flogged and treat yourself to a nice springer.... pcp’s Are good but a good session with a springer is better 2 Quote Link to post
philpot 4,984 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I sold most of my rifles as I use the Impact on every occasion BUT I wished I had kept one just as an alternative or back up. I have an S200 t split stock for target shooting and toying with popping on a small scope just for ratting when I find a suitable scope. Anyone got a small side focus or AO scope they want to sell ideally s/f Phil Quote Link to post
PLEDGEY 496 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I don't ever sell anything so I say keep it. 1 Quote Link to post
forest of dean redneck 11,591 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I've had guns an regretted selling some, if you don't need the cash from it,then keep it. They don't cost anything when put away. 2 Quote Link to post
Degsey 28 Posted November 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 I have decided after much deliberation that I am selling the Galahad and am putting the money towards a better NV set up. So boys and girls if anyone is in the market for a nearly new Galahad and an NS50 NiteSite let me know. Quote Link to post
Hunter8787 3 Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 If it was up to me I would sell the Galahad and focus on the S510. Quote Link to post
