Im not experianced but iv done my fare share of plinking.Im trying to decide between the BSA Meteor MK6 .22 or the SMK 20 Spring Air Rifle.Ill be doing as much general air gunning as possible (fur and feather) and just wondered what you lads think is the best option. cheers stig Quote Link to post

stig 2 Posted October 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 To simply answer your 2 options...BSA ...no brainer!!! Why?Sorry if it seems a stupid question im a bit of a thick twat.Does the SMK lack wallop or is it unreliable.Im not looking for a super dooper rifle, because realisticly your not going to at the prices Im looking at Im just after a fairly decent starter hunting rifle.If there is such a thing.Thanks for all the replies so far.

slyfox-mal 1 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 bsa is the better of the two id say and smk are pretty crap but you get what you pay for better off saveing up abit and getting maybe a 2nd hand rifle for very little more than what your going to pay for the bsa or the smk cheers mal Quote Link to post
hiho 5 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 The smk is a good rifle for the money some people like BSA to much!! if i was you ild get a webley longbow Quote Link to post
bates88 0 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Hi there I have a BSA Lightning XL with Walther Scopes myself and its powerful, accurate ive had much success rabbits and birds. Cheers bates88 Quote Link to post
timjim 43 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 as mal said, if you got limited funds you should hold out and look for a second hand one, i got a meteor in my collection but i only keep it as it was my late uncles, and smk sre ok but for the cost of a new one you could get a decent second hand springer try this site good luck Quote Link to post
