Guest buster321c Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 The Scorpion is a bolt action PCP which comes in either .177 or .22 calibre. It is supplied in the UK as a carbine (short barrel) although is available in other countries with a longer barrel. There are single shot and ten shot versions available. The single shot is supplied with a wooden (beech) shock with nice chequering and studs fitted as standard. The multi shot (T10) has a black tactical stock which while nice, is only suitable for right handed shooters. It is however possible to fit the wooden stock to the T10 with minimal effort.

spud gun 16 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 i was looking at the logun s16s on the net, and i loved them that was the gun i intended to get. went down the local gun club and asked them about them, they are bad for jamming and i never got told this on the net. so any way i went to the next gun shop who had them in stock and i picked one up, the weight was bad, im only 14 and it gave me back ache just lifting it up to my shoulder. and the length of the gun was bad too, about 10 inches bigger than they look, so that was that gun out the window. now i have got a gunpower stealth so i got a good gun in the end. to fill a pcp you want a bottle and where i am its £169 for a 3l 200 bar, and you get all hoses and gauge too. i would just look around and just dont rush in to any thing as i nearly did, just put a post up on the wanted for a good rifle but i would get a pcp. my dad has got a bsa ultra multi shot and they are perfect for what you need it for. i hope what i have just put helps you out a bit more all the best with getting a new gun spud gun Quote Link to post
killa-combo 142 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 my opinion a airarms s200 there good all round target or hunting and can be upgraded into a multi shot for around £60 witch is simple to do yourself.......well worth taking a look at.. Quote Link to post

spike25blue 55 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 By the sound of it you will be looking for a multishot rifle . This obviously being a rifle that has a magazine that allows you to load multiple pellets . As far as cost of a pump goes , you would be better off with a bottle , and looking for a second hand set up that has every thing thrown in at a bargain price . Just remember , dont rush into anything and try a few at the shop first , as you might spend £350 on a gun over the internet and when it arrives it could be too heavy . So make sure you try em out Look for a few local clubs too as mambers will be helpful and full of advise ,atb Buster Yes multi shot is really what im looking for, is the bsa scorpion still suitable for this? i am going to go to the shops as soon as i can to try out and hopefully buy at a good deal!! I would imagine a bottle of compressed air is more suitable than trying to pump it into the cylinder. thanks depends what scorpion it is [bANNED TEXT] the normal scorpion came in single and the T10 is the tactical stock with 10 shot magazine..... the T10 is a very light and compact carbine u get around shot per 200 bar fill.... http://www.bsaguns.co.uk/gun_scorpion_t10.php http://www.bsaguns.co.uk/gun_scorpion_carb.php atb rob Quote Link to post
MARKR1985 15 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 i have a daystate x2 sports pcp 10 shot in .22 for sale its a bit out of your budget though at £425,but i recently bought a .177 bsa hornet multishot with scope and silencer second hand from my gunsmith for £350 and it is a cracking gun.the bsa ultra single and multi shot is also a brilliant bit of kit all my guns are pcps and all whisper quiet Quote Link to post
