  7. GAMO ROCKET nitro piston, complete with Gamo scope 4 x 32 .22 Cal The stock is camo which looks real nice and it has a shrouded barrel I am selling this as i bought this as part of a deal the gun was brand new i have used it but only at my local club once it has had less than hundred pellets through it. this rifle can be seen in most air gun magazines or the net. £ 100 plus the cost of postage if needs to be sent which i would have to find out how much it is. or face to face this rifle is a cracking bit of kit for some one starting out thanks for looking
  8. i love the 303 and like your self ive watched them take big game and giant rabbits in south africa i think it was with the rifle but i cant see them ever making it legal to use over here on big game especially deer but there again as you say less noise so the noise polution people might agree that it would be ideal to use in the country not to desterb other wild life
  9. Hi guys and girls does any one know if you paint one of these plastic stocks do you need a special primer so that paint will stick to the stock before you start or will any type of primers do i will be using acrylics hopefully will these paints be okay to paint plastic stocks thanks openseason

  13. i was thinking the other day about making a silencer to make my Gamo Rocket a lot quieter as it has a shrouded barrel that doesnt seem to make a difference. thinking about wood and how it must dampen noise levels MAY BE ive decided to try and make one just a slip over barrel version. one outer casing and one inner casing. The innner casing will have holes drilled in this to hopefully absorb sound while there will be an air gap between both the inner and outer casing so i can try different materials such as glued saw dust in a tube formation so it slides beetween the inner and ou
  14. hi Guys and Girls can any one tell me just how effective a 410 is on rabbits and pigeons and what range they can be shot from pls thanks openseason

  16. lol just let me get my eyes back into focus and stop them spinning round my head ha ha ha i think i follow that i do know what you mean. bloody hell i tell you its louder than any airgun ive fired over the 30 odd years i really must see if i can get a silencer i feel if i go shooting with this little gem i wont have long in the field before i have to go home and all the bunnies are laughing at me ha ha ha!!! two miles away
  17. can any one tell me is a shrouded barrel supposed to make the gun quiet or quieter than normal. if not can you get a silencer to fit a shrouded barrel THE REASON IM ASKING IS JUST GOT MY NEW GAMO ROCKET OUT TO PLAY Bloody hell its no wonder they call it a rocket THE CRACK AS YOU FIRE IT sounds likE it wouldnt be out of place on the launch pad of NASA ANY ONE HELP WITH THIS ONE PLEASE
  18. ive read the posts guys a lot of you think they should be licenced for safety thats a fair comment guys i was interested to see how many people think the limit should be raised and the 12ft lbs limit removed to give us all that little bit more edge on power possibly that we might need in the field of hunting / shooting with out the hassle of applying for our certs. Its like anything if its abused then it gets bad reports weather its our 12ft lbs or if it was over this limit it still gets a bad report weather the airgun was or would be used for crime the fact is if its in the area of a crime
  19. i am hoping they range in yards fingers crossed
  20. what i meant by asking the question about air gun power is trying to eliminate the hassle of fac cert and that the power would be nice if it was raised more than it is to a reasonable power rather than fac cert being needed i understand that a lot can get fac and have no need for the use of air rifles at the fac 22 rimy distance but for those who cant get rimmy certs the power increase would be a great advantage i think, i was interested to see what others thought, interesting comments and a mixed bag of thoughts. it would be nice to get the FAC cert but a lot of us cant get this where a lot o
  21. Hi buddy glad to see you back on mate
  22. Hi can any one tell me what the Tasco Range finder is like please are they any good for the money and do they do their job properly thanks openseason
  23. interesting comments guys seems alot of us are worried the idiots get hold of high powered guns and use them irresponsibly if the legal limit was lifted i would say once an idiot always an idiot schools i dont think are to blame for them but the home life. the schools are now governed by what they can do with the idiots but the issue of removing the legal limit or raising it wouldnt really i dont think make any difference to the idiots as they would shoot you close by just as much as long range and they are more likely to stay in the house and shoot from a window rather than from a long w
  24. Does any one have any opinions on the power of air rifles that we are legally aloud to own with out a cert for them Or are we living in the dark ages with our 12ft llbs versions It would be nice i think to see the legal limit raised with out being to stupid about it but THEN THE QUESTION WOULD BE what would we call ( not a stupid level ) May be the level could be raised for owners who have a shot gun certs with out the need for a fire arms cert AND that would be enough. Or should the need for fire arms certs be abolished for an Air rifle over 12ft llbs AND just the permission
