    ah well its that time of year again! the time of year my shooting insurance runs out! i have tried BASA and found them to be a shambolic joke that could not even deal with sending you the paperwork for THREE MONTHS!!??? god only knows what would happen if you actually made a claim! last year i went with the countryside alliance who were professional and i cant say a bad word about, i know the majority on here are BASC to the core. so does any one know of any top deals to be had??

    well in my humble opinion as a bit of a novice i think a less experienced shooter who maybe not being a walking human embodiment of chairgun pro, will make more clean kills with a .177 due to the flatter trajectory/lack of distance judgement. but your more experienced shooters will probably disagree.

    thats fine mate if you sent it back to air arms they would probably turn the power down.

    hi all been reading up on these old rifles the barrel is 5.6 (old imperial size) so deker was right about ely wasps as they seem the only folks that make a 5.6 pellet! the thing is with an aa field just dropped in there it puts out poxy 6.5 to 8 but if you squash the skirt out so its a tight fit it it goes over 12 into illegal land? how do you odds this is it legal or illegal i have some wasps and rws fields on order i suppose i will have to wait until they show and see what the crack is then. heres 2 dropped in loose an heres one with the skirt spread

    well i did him a blackthorn catty a few years back an he has treasured it lol! he will be over the moon with this, i am giving him a 3 spinner target and gun slip as well. his old man is a good mate who hoards shit when mink coats became socially unacceptable he bought as many as he could and stashed em in his loft i bought one of him a year back for 30 quid for another mates missis who loves them it must of cost a mint new weighed a tonne. did your haenel have a heavy trigger this one has and i cant see no way of sorting it as it is just a lever an hook

    bloody hell andy i phoned chambers where i bought the really expensive fcukin washer and specifically asked should i use SILICONE oil and was told definitely no i had to use thin engine oil WTF !!!! so now what should i do mate ? If I said ignore Chambers, who have been doing this for donkeys, sold you the part, and have a bigger selection of air rifle parts than probably anyone in the world, and told you to soak it in dog piss, then who would you believe? i'd definitely leave the dog piss out, but i'd believe andy, as he worked in the gun trade and has a very good reputation on

    thanks every one i been hitting in safety pin heads only at 17 yards as thats all i have bloody stiff trigger tho not the most elegant rifle but when my mate gave it me it was full of worm holes and rusty as a shopping trolley from a duck pond i rubbed it down as much as poss reblued it, filled worm holes with arraldite sanded and oiled it, managed to get snapped off screws out. it started off putting out 5.6 and has crept up to nearly 8 now with less than 60 pellets through it. but its only a plinker for a 10 year old heres the pics the brass cap is an old penny with the safety in works a te

    dried it right off it had become more pliable put a spot of silicone oil on it and whacked it together put about 30 pellets through it and it stopped dieseling after about 15 happy days! zeroing it now in garden from back of lounge about 20 yards. its not a pro sport but from a 10 ear old kids point of view its going to be ace. if he can pull the trigger lol it is a bit stiff lol. one more question for you all aa fields are a bit slack in the breach does any one know which pellets have the thinnest longest skirts in .22 cheers

    hi all thought the title would grab some of your attention! i am sorting out a ancient haenel 302 for a mates lad, has any one had much to do with leather cup piston seals the guy at chambers said to soak it in engine oil for 24 hours prior to fitting which i have done but it still feels pretty stiff to me! (ooo matron) should i soak it longer? or is it good to go? cheers any advice appreciated.

    wouldnt want to own either rifle you have listed buy s/h hw or AA springer and as said will last for ever and if you want to resell they will hold value and have cost you nothing.
