Classic Air Rifles


Recommended Posts

I love that RWS Excalibur/Simmons Whitetail scope of Tom's. Pity about the prat at RWS who's appalling customer manner put me solidly off buying one.

 

Does my HW80 .22 and long-out-of-production Simmons Whitetail 3.5-14x40 AO count for this group? She and her scope are both pushing 19-20 years old now...But still beautiful... :angel:

I wondered that after posting my pic, I was at work and diddnt read the start of the topic properly. I hope 20+ years counts? Or am I in trouble for been too modern? Hope not lol.

Right lads as we dont have a classic air rifle section   we will have to make our own   if one of the mods can pin this we will have one hear for all to post on   RIFLES

FWB Sport 127 (.22) 1978       FWB Sport 124 (.177) 1979         A couple of the " finest springers ever made" in my humble opinion.

Well, here's my contribution - being a pcp, I guess it's probably more of a modern classic.

 

Rough estimates put this .22 Falcon FN12 at around 22 yrs old.

 

Being a bit simple myself, I do appreciate the simpler things in life - this is definitely that and, bloody accurate to, even in my hands :yes:

Got to love fn,s

 

Not much of a picture taker this pic is god knows how many years old! But it's in my photobucket album so thaught I'd stick it up. The sporter stocked one is now owned by my best mate on the promise it came back. He won't part with it and doesn't even consider changing it. Not done owt but fill it with air and shoot it since I sold him it. I keep trying to get it back lol.
