flynndog 543 Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Right lads my pals after a Springer under 200 scoped preferably. Any of the Springer men recommend anything I've told him to save for a lgu in .177 but he wants one to use straight away what would be the best gun for him ( I don't have a clue with Springer ) Quote Link to post
tomburras 2,730 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 If it was me I'd get him a hw99, great little guns. 2 Quote Link to post
si brown 8,486 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I’m with Tom... the 99 is a mint little rifle, £200 new with iron sights but you’ll be able to get a scoped one second hand for the same price. 2 Quote Link to post
philpot 4,990 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I wouldn't swear to it but I think there is a s/h in my rfd with a scope on, I will give them a call tomorrow to see if I am right, if so it is in Scunthorpe 1 Quote Link to post
j j m 6,539 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 get a decent second hand kit for 200 Quote Link to post
charlie caller 3,654 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 If he goes down the 99s route, make sure its .22 as its very difficult to get close to the 12 ftlbs limit in .177, if he saved or scrounged another £50-£100 he is in scoped up decent springer I.E hw 77 hw80 hw 95 etc in whatever calibre he fancies. 2 Quote Link to post

charlie caller 3,654 Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Or there is a Walther LGV in Kirklees guns for 275 or an LGV master pro for 295, and well you know what I think of them, the best out the box springer you can get. 1 Quote Link to post
flynndog 543 Posted November 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I'm barred from Kirklees guns I've mentioned the lgu to him I loved mine but too near Xmas for him to save any more Quote Link to post

Kranks has a good second hand selection but if you buy a new 99 iv a 3-9x40 Mil dot hawke scope and mounts he can have and I'm not far away. Quote Link to post
