HW80 bargain!

[Whispering Whiskey 66 1,072]

Just a little write up guys, so I seen a HW80 for sale on gunstar last night for £85 with a scope I couldn’t believe my eyes…. So anyways got talking to the chap long story short I have purchased it, comes tomorrow with parcelforce 24, £15 delivery. This was a little description of the rifle.( New spring,piston seal, breech seal,cocking shoe, scope,stock has had a repair, powerful rifle,reduced price too clear.) So all in all delivered cost me £100 I think that’s a top bargain what’s your thoughts? Anyways I can’t wait to see my new toy tomorrow

I probably would been tempted to go look at that if I had seen it

For £85 I had to get it, that’s 2 hw80s to my 5 springer collection.

That's some bargain that is i think the hw80 out of the box is over 400 notes. I have one myself though have not shot it for years even though they are a workhorse of a gun i still prefer the BSA Mercury and airsporter tbh.

I have 2 of the 80s now for that price I couldn’t help my self, I’m just gonna restore the stock and make it a little project for the next few weeks.

Just hope it comes and not a scam 

seems very cheap

It did come and I was made up with the thing, just going to restore the stock with tru oil and may put another spring and change the scope other then that it seems a nice gun. But for £85 that I thought was to good to be true actually turned up..

That’s is a cheap eighty . I wonder what it shoots like 

[Whispering Whiskey 66 1,072]

It seems fine had a plink about with it but seems it was shooting way over I stripped it last night and fitted a nice new Tbt Maxi with a few coils off with a chronograph bringing it legal again it shoots a dream, just going to change the scope to a nice hawke fast mount 3-12x50,

Conyers in blandford had 2 while back they was £200 odd each was only 1 left couple of weeks ago when I was last passing by.

Few cheap ones on here, £95 for a HW77 seems cheap enough.
