  1. I am not familiar with Aguila at all but I suggest contacting Forest Lodge Guns, in Wragby, nr Market Rasen, Lincs and speek to the owner Matt as they specialize in firearms rather than shotguns and air rifles although they do sell them of course. Matt really knows his stuff when it comes to firearms and they have a good selection of rimfire and centre fire rounds. Gun shop | Wragby | Forest Lodge Guns WWW.FORESTLODGEGUNSWRAGBY.CO.UK Forest Lodge Guns has been a trusted gun shop in Wragby since 1987. Browse and purchase online or in store. Call n
  2. To be honest I dont know as I didn't pay for them, I was in credit at the rfd so took little notice. I should have said that the mainstay of the orders now in the UK of Hornady rimfire are hmr but wmr are in at both my normal rfd shops.
  3. I used to own a Rapid .22 fac but I don't think I would go that route now but thanks for the heads up on that.
  4. I applied for a variation on my firearms ticket to allow me to buy a .25 fac air rifle which as some of you know I have really missed having in my hunting life and whilst my .22 fac Wildcat is a great gun, I NEED a .25 again. Well my ticket came through on Saturday so I am ready to go and buy one other than the win on the lotto that would be quite helpful , it is in my mind to move on my Tikka .22lr and my Sako Quad hmr / wmr because the .25 will be totally fed on slugs (not the slimy ones) so I am not so sure I need the rimfire rifles now. A trip to Pickering Guns is on the cards soon.
  5. For the first time today I tested an A-Tec mod and was quite surprised how good it was, I tested both a Weihrauch mod and the A-Tec and both were pretty well equal but the A-Tec is cheaper, well worth looking at. Phil
  6. I didn't know they even made one.
  7. There is a guy on 'Airgun forum' who can fit a reg to an AA 410 but I believe it is not easy or contact Phil Crampton at Ratworks to discuss what can be done. You say you want the guns 'turning' I am guessing a slight typo there and mean't Tuned, if so again Ratworks is a very good place to start as he does a lot of work with the R10 guns. Phil
  8. A bit out of order pal, we have some sound advice passed over on this forum and in a number of cases, meet up for both social and help.
  9. I do recall Mark Williams saying that he used a spray on his mags Jimmy to keep them running well and ensuring the pellet passed into the chamber correctly. I am sorry to say I don't remember what the spray was but I am pretty sure it was not a silicone spray or a normal oil and I think it begins with B, sorry Jimmy, send Mark a message. Phil
  10. Sorry that should be £60 - £90 per gun
  11. Now then Si, both Jimmy and myself have tried to get hold of you, have you changed your mobile number, a bit concerned we can't reach you mate. Give one of us a call to let us know you are okay. Phil
  12. I was talking to a friend of mine a few weeks ago who is into 'airsoft' shooting and he showed me his latest creation in terms of stock paint treatment. I was well impressed so I got him a couple of old stocks that were lying about for him to paint them with his design using an airbrush and one hand painted. I know he has done a few guns for other people and was happy for me to post on here for you guys to see. If anyone is interested in having their gun stocks painted by him, I will put you in touch as I am not involved at all but I believe he would charge about £60 - 70.
  13. That looks a nice spot for the pike mind you it has been a very strange year for piking, so much rain knocking temperatures all over the place and it seems to have had a big effect on the fish. Phil
  14. As I understand it, my rfd said they can order as much as they sensibley want, no real restrictions but the supplies are only just starting to come through. I bought 200 yesterday as I dont use too much of the round. Phil
  15. In my rfd yesterday when a delivery arrived of V Max, he told me that there is over one million rounds arrived in the UK a couple of days ago so you should be able to get some pretty soon. Phil
