  1. Now that is interesting Pav, I wonder why they all fail at that range. Phil
  2. I know you had a problem with the dealer but have you spoken to them regarding an exchange for an AGT that you fancy. As I said, talk to Air Arms directly as well, calmly and factually explaining exactly what has happened. Phil
  3. I wonder how they compare with the Impact as the price is very similar. I would think the 'King' series would be spot on in .25 fac with that size tank, fair number of shots per fill I am guessing. Phil
  4. They do look very good Jake. Phil
  5. A 4lt is a good size, I have both a 12lt and a 4lt and the 4 is not too heavy to take out if needed. I had hold of a carbon 5lt today in the shop, certainly lighter than my 4lt steel tank, I think I may do a swop at some stage.
  6. As a matter of interest Sam, what size bottle did you buy.
  7. Now we are talking Sam, wise move sir. Phil
  8. Not exactly a big selection Mitch. Phil
  9. Welcome aboard DeeDee and feel free to join in on current threads, the members will be still on here to respond. ?? Phil
  10. Never seen them, who is selling them. Phil
  11. Have you ordered a bottle yet Sam...................................................... NO...........................get it ordered !!!!!!! Phil
  12. My old clay shooting friend used to give his stocks a lift every few years using a tiny amount of linseed on his hands rubbing it in hade his hands quite hot but the effect was lovely. I did it once many many years ago, not as good a stock as his gun at thet time but nevertheless I was very pleased. An old gunmaker in sheffield where I used to live also used this method to finish his stock work although not sure what oil he used. Phil
  13. The joys of living out in the wilds of Lincolnshire.
  14. 30 secs with an air bottle or heart attack with a pump..................................................................I think I will stick with the bottle. £35 for a retest Jimmy, bloody hell that is about £10 - 15 cheaper than here. Phil
  15. My pal has one and I borrowed it for a few days, cracking little gun for the money, I confess I was not so keen on the left hand cocking but apart from that, spot on. Phil
  16. Never actually seen one let alone used or owned one BUT I have only heard good things about these guns. I will be very interested to see how you get on with it. Phil
  17. I will see if the rfd can get HC to send one to test Mitch. I was not saying anything to contradict your friends view of the XLK small, just repeating what the guy said. I did want to try the small Xlk but so far the rfd just hasn't bothered to get one in. Must give them a call tomorrow but I did pop in today and picked up the Wildcat Cub mod to try on my Wildcat but it's not quite as good as the SAK but nicely built however it will be going back as not much point in keeping yet another mod that won't be used. Phil
  18. Here we go Jimmy, you judge for yourself but I am sure it will appeal to the supreme tackle tart out there BUT if your school of thought is anything like mine, you will think the same as me and Mitch of course. Phil
  19. I don't think so Mitch as I explained that it was for an FX Airgun .22 fac and then he told me about the small version XLK mod not being suitable for fac. One point that made me giggle to myself was the fact that he said that HC do not support the mods being used on FX guns and the fact that it may not work or be broken, I did ask if he was having a laugh. I also asked if they did a .25 version of the XLK large size for my Impact and he asked why would Weihraugh make a .25 mod when they don't make a .25 gun....................................I had no answer that didn't involve telling him h
  20. I know when I spoke to Hull Cartridge about the XLK mods, they said the small version is NOT fac rated and the large version worked well on my test but was it £110 better than the SAK that was sat in the cabinet costing me not a penny although I do confess the tackle tart in me says the XLK looks better than the SAK but then again so does the Belitta so it shows you cannot go by looks................... Phil
  21. I take it your Dreamline is sub12.
  22. I told you to slow down on the booze after the strokes you bugger but you clearly were pissed here Jimmy. ?? Phil
  23. Is Carl still operating as I have not heard anyone speak of him on the other forums but if he is, it's never a quick job running into many many weeks and even months were reported at one time. Everyone says if you can wait, his work is second to none. There is also AGR Tuning in Spalding, Lincs who is a good bloke and did some work for me on my Impact, His name is Tony, tel 07847 485 993 Phil
  24. Yes they do Mitch and for me it is just curiosity because I cannot get my head around people spending so much on utter shite. The SAK which is on my Wildcat is not bad it's just trying to improve things a little when I am using it around the dairy farm perm and I did test HW XLK (large) and that is just a touch better but the XLK (small) is not rated for fac so I didn't bother getting one in for test. I hope to pop in to the rfd today and look through a box of Wildcat mods as I have Panthers on my two rimfire which are superb but as reflex mods, they won't go over the shroud but I think
