bigmac 97kt 13,730 Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Si your right mate iv just put 6 shots through her and all you get is a gentle nudge on the shoulder only out to 18 yrds but seeing as there is no scope and no back sites and only using the front site the groupings not bad bet when she has a scope fitted she will be pellet on pellet May even put a bid in for this my self lol atvbmac :thumbs: 2 Quote Link to post

I would say no more than a 97 but im a big lad lol but then again it has no scope fitted yet iv got to say i thought it would be awkward to hold with the side leaver being on the side but the way it has been done is superb it dose not get in the way and dose not feel side heavy ether ,,,spot on . honest im going to put a bid in for it my self lol its that good atvbmac :thumbs: PS,,, lads this has some nice grain in her very nice indeed Quote Link to post
tomburras 2,721 Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Looking forwards to see how this goes! Its great to see a proper classic restored to former glory. Got a soft spot for these my dad had one when I was growing up and had one myself too. Brings back some memories seeing that.the stock has nice grain and the 52 stock is a great looking shape! All the best with it mac! 1 Quote Link to post
