Jonjon79 13,358 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 They're nice rifles - yes they're a little heavy but, to me, that made it feel solid. My old .22 was the best rat whacker I ever had £150 is a bargain - buy it 2 Quote Link to post

beany01 223 Posted February 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Well I’ve just been a picked it up. It’s a mk3, with a hawke 3-9x50 mil dot scope, with a mini torch and laser fitted. A couple of magazines, even though he did say they were a bit iffy, and buy the new plastic ones. A filling adapter, two tins of pellets, a box of targets and the gun bag. Best £150 I’ve ever spent. There’s a couple of minor marks on the stock, and a tiny amount of surface rust on the barrel. Well happy 6 1 Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 That looks like a cracking buy for that money ........... I hope it shoots as good as it looks Quote Link to post
beany01 223 Posted February 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 So do I. It only had enough air in it for 1 blast just to make sure it worked. The barrel is a bit crustier than I thought. It’s got quite a bit of surface rust, but I can’t complain for the money Quote Link to post
bsasuperten 74 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 what a bargain that's the same as mine great rifles quality feel really solid on aim enjoy bsasuperten 1 Quote Link to post
Rabid 1,936 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Got a steal on that you got a steal on that, looks like it’s had a lot of pellets through it but no bother, stick some pics up of the block on both sides, also get some air in it and check what it’s running at, that was one of the favourite rifles for tinkerers. If that’s a genuine mk3, then for what you paid you could afford the have the barrel reblued and still be well in pocket. Quote Link to post

If that’s a genuine mk3, then for what you paid you could afford the have the barrel reblued and still be well in pocket. I did notice the wear to the bluing where the magazine has been in/out. So that indicates it’s been well used. I’m not home now, so will take the pics tomorrow. I haven’t got anything to check what it’s putting out. I have only got my s200 out of the cabinet 6 months ago for the first time is years because I needed to thin out a few bunnies on a paddock I couldn’t ferret. I treated it by making a nv kit and getting a range finder. It works really well. I only brought this because it was cheap, and I fancied a multi shot Quote Link to post
vizlauk 1,568 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 What an absolute bargain, is it .22 or .177, money very well spent Quote Link to post
beany01 223 Posted February 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) It’s a .22 Edited February 9, 2019 by beany01 1 Quote Link to post
