hedge wanderer 51 Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 Nice setup mate. Guns arnt my cup of tea but you can't deny on the accuracy and ability of the 510 and R10. What I've been using the last 3/4 years. Think it needs a new spring mind. Feels week but in it's hay day was the most accurate untuned Springer ive ever shot. You do get a creaked neck carrying it around mind? 2 Quote Link to post

I find you start paying more for the air arms for cosmetic reasons, whereas weihrauchs I feel are the more rugged of the 2 brands 1 Quote Link to post

Smashing range of air guns? For the money, can't beat them at all in my opinion 2 Quote Link to post
