  1. Hi Don't know where you are located, but BAR at Blackpool had a couple in last time I was there, don't know about cal or AT. Just a thought, they are good to deal with. http://www.airgunbuyer.com/index.asp good luck Martin
  2. That's the reason the Americans have a .50 cal air rifle !!!
  3. Air rifles are different to shotguns and FAC guns in the eyes of the law. But you do have to have a good reason as mentioned above if you have it in a public place. Once it is on private property like your home or office it is different. Could you lock it up at work? Then going home you are on your way to your permission. Whether yours is a good reason or not, might have to be tested in court if your view is different from the officer's. Or if there is not already a stated case to cover the circumstances. If I was you and going through the application process, I would ask the Firearms En
  4. Between the eye and the base of the ear.... they just fall over!!
  5. Hi I came back to the sport earlier this year and bought a HW100 which had been made lighter with a v-mach cylinder (11oz lighter!!). What I have found though is that I have become stronger over the weeks that followed. The more I use it the less I notice the weight, even with a bipod, scope and torch attached. Personally I would give it a bit longer before making big changes. Weight can be an advantage for stability! ATB Martin
  6. Hi all, Just thought I would update this thread for the benefit of others who were in the same position as me. Following all the recommendations listed above I bought the following: Mount. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TORCH-LASER-RIFLE-SCOPE-AIRGUN-MULTI-SIZE-LAMPING-MOUNT-/260653888143?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET#ht_3329wt_945 UltraFire® 501B CREE 300Lumens Tactical Flashlight set. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/UltraFire-501B-CREE-300Lumens-Tactical-Flashlight-set-/150484272673?pt=US_Flashlights#ht_2634wt_911 4x CR123A 3.6V 16340 Rechargeable Battery+ Charger. http://cg
  7. The only thing I can't resist is temptation.

  8. And what does he look like with two identical HW100's --- There will be a lot of bunnies in the area happy you are selling one of the twins lol Cracking rifle, almost new and well loved, probably just run in by now. Excellent deal for anyone thinking of getting one of these. Cheers Martin
  9. Cheers - just getting used to these forum things, never even looked in banter! Right - money spent - 4 orders placed all recommended in this thread.... thanks Got to go now, my beloved and tolerant other half thinks it's her turn... we are off to town (fortunately all shuts at 4 though round here on Sundays) TTFN Martin
  10. So..... last bit then I'll leave this thread alone (running out of cash rapidly ) Night vision. I know it's expensive, but is it any good? I quite like the idea and I think it would be very good on one of my permissions for not attracting attention. Might rig a cheap option of 0 lux video camera attached to scope (as seen in some excellent videos on this forum) I presume the range on the real thing is where they come into their own. Cheers Martin
  11. :icon_redface: Thats the problem with copy and paste :icon_redface: I didn't test it before I posted. Having said that..90 deg, you have seen me on the range haven't you lol
  12. phantom, have a look at this price - might have to wait a week or two but that's how long the torch will take!! http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.31871 Now, which charger.......! Martin
  13. Just found Dealextreme.com - look at this lot, then check out the other stuff... resist.... resist.... I can't http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.bike%20mount
  14. Hi I have a carbon fibre shrouded barrel so I will not be attaching a clamp to the barrel to fit the torch. It will have to be a "8" clamp on the scope tube, but I wanted something quick release or I will have to get a bigger gun bag Found this as mentioned above with the velcro, not ideal for me, but an option when all else fails. It is a bike mount! It might allow fitting to my V-Mach cylinder http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Bike-Cycle-Velcro-Torch-Mount-Bracket-Clamp-Holder-/150440470996?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_SportsLeisure_Cycling_Bike_Lights&hash=item2306f369d4#ht_1399wt_1137 Might sui
  15. Just looked at that item again Phantom, it's HK not US, priced in US$... Is the HK and China stuff OK, some people not too happy with it, particularly some of the rechargeable batteries?
