  1. Well my scenario was 3 rifles, one man. One knock about, one casual, one formal/wedding suit. I figured I'd be happy to lend knock about and casual as they only occasionally came out of the wardrobe. I definitely wouldn't expect people to lend out their pride and joys. It would have been a nice idea if I'd thought of it prior to selling them!
  2. A quick write up on a small blueing job. All courtesy of secretagentmole. So many thanks indeed to him. The Patient; MKII TX200 .177 manufactured Jan 95. Symptoms; Thin blueing on underlever starting to betray an orange hue. Patient was internally in very good health, so all she was in need of was some cosmetic surgery. The procedure was very straight forward indeed. A clean cloth, a dab of gel applied fairly liberally but as evenly as feasible. After 30 seconds, (one thousand, two thousand, three thousand....) rinse with cold water. First coat; Third coat;
  3. In truth I hate lending people my stuff lol. Upon reflection, sensitive electronics is perhaps a no no and asking for trouble and ill will. I'd of thought an iron clad agreement should cover both parties... Ah well, maybe not..
  4. Well the place bought the Raider from didn't charge extra, but normally you'd expect to.
  5. The price... seems very low to me. It won't hang around surely!
  6. Hmmm true it could be abused. Sad. But true. I don't agree it's a non starter. Or perhaps i just don't want to!
  7. Kanny you misunderstand, I don't want a loan/finance rather the product isn't released until you pay the balance off. The guys i used didn't charge for the privilege either. You do own it outright, but you're commited with a target. Aimless saving doesn't work for me, too undisciplined ya see.
  8. The crosman website shows a mixed bag. Some think its the messiah returned, others that it's beelzebub's arse burp...
  9. Whoa! You sure? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hawke-Nite-Eye-Digital-IR-SF-Hunting-Rifle-Night-Scope-/160557792930
  10. Am thinking up plans... There are so many guns out there and it's all very well handling them in the shop but what if you could 'borrow' one for a couple of days/a week/a month? I say borrow as I imagine there would be hellish amounts of red tape to wade through if you used the word rent. Privately could work though... Lets say you have a gun surplus. I have a 97k (not for much longer i don't think). You're interested in them. Perhaps unsure about the weight in the field... You wanna borrow it. You pay transport/collect both ways. We sign an agreement to protect both parties if

    "I wandered lonely as a cloud...." It hurts when something like this happens and you're left with the undeniable truth that you have no human friends outside of your family circle. I had to talk to the mrs last night until 11pm! Bloody shattered the both of us. IanB you've saved a few relationships and nipped a number of suicides in the bud methinks!
  12. I'm poor. I'm also crap at saving what little dosh I get. I found a place on Gunstar that enabled me to buy a raider by paying weekly, they also didn't care how long it took me, really great guys, trouble is, they, being a business can only send to RFD's. Pain in my backside because a)it costs extra and b)transport - I have none within walking distance. I REALLY want a hw100 set up (pump not bottle) and I imagine I'm not the only poor bugger who does. I wonder on the feasibility of doing such a thing privately. So new 'second hand' guns. Like that thing car dealers were doing where the
  13. I posted my latest outing three times lol
  14. No argument from me there. The MK3 is as good as any pcp if not better. That said though, how the devil do you justify 3 springers? You've managed it!
  15. That's what Dave686 has offered me it's a good offer too MKII and HW97k for his s200 (with silencer, bipod, bag and pump)... i'm still uncertain about .22. More expensive pellets, loopier trajectory...better shot count though... I'M SO TORN!
  16. But it's sooo beautiful over there... the lightness, the elegance.... I know you're right deep down...
  17. They sometimes pop up on here for £60 odd... or you could swap for a springer! Got a HW97k here for ya!
  18. Nice going! A bit more productive than my visit to the gunshop today! Hoorah for you!
  19. The only gun i'd let the mk3 go for is the HW100. I'm % sure...50%.....i'll shut up
  20. I had an intimate session with a contour today. Very affectionate for her but she's a bit to diddy and a tad over priced at that shop. (£420?)
  21. Hey Eagle Eyes! Haha, after an s200 or EVEN a HW100.... having trouble finding an s200 in ,177 plus pump. Ideally I'd hang onto the MK3. Or HW97k. Or MK2...correction, ideally I'd fart money and keep ALL OF EM MWAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
