  1. Hi Bob, maybe you have some old messages from him or something? Might sound a bit desperate but I've just had the one guy who was interested pull out. So I guess I am a bit desperate! Ha! Still for sale folks.
  2. Selling my Highlander Gillie suit. As new, I've only worn it once! Comes complete with hood, gun wrap and stuff sack. This is extremely effective camo. Adult sized, says XL/XXL but I'm 5'7" and 34" waist and it fits me fine with plenty of room for a bigger person. I wanted it to have space for warm layers under it! Cost about sixty quid new, selling for £40 ono collected from Birkenhead. Will post at cost. These are currently unavailable in the UK, as nowhere seems to have any stock. Cheers
  3. Is he a member on here Bob? If so I might be able to track him down somehow? How did you get to hear of him? Cheers, Jim
  4. Got this lovely Baikal to to move on, I've tried selling it before, got loads of interest but I still have it gathering dust. This time it has to go! Double triggers, barrels are just under 26" and fixed choke at I think 1/2 and full. I don't know this for certain though, so please bring a choke gauge if you need to be 100% sure. I don't have one myself. Nice wood, decent basic engraving and tight as a tight thing! This classic work horse gun would make a lovely rough shooting tool or hide gun. Bargain at £180 ovno. Possibility of delivery around the Wirral/ Chester/
  5. Thanks for the offer GI28, I'm afraid these are sold though. Hope the Mrs is ok! Jim
  6. Not sure if this is in the right place, mods feel free to move if not! I've got just over 300 rounds of this ammo that my rifle just doesn't like. I need it gone as I can't buy any more until this is out of my cabinet! Offers invited, but I'll sell the lot for anything over £20. FAC required obviously, and face to face. I'm in Birkenhead, Wirral. Or swap or equal amount of CCI/ Eley Cheers, James
  7. Still for sale folks, really need it gone. Open to offers.
  8. Great info ShooterXD, thanks. It was measured with a drop in gauge, so you may well be right about this gun! Buyer to satisfy themselves about chokes then! Location is a good shout too. I'm in Wirral, Merseyside. James
  9. Haha! Good point LMG! My bad. Price is £195 ono. Offers invited.
  10. 12g Bailkal IJ-27, good condition, few minor marks associated with field use, but non that are bad or affect the guns use in any way. I took this gun in exchange for an air rifle a while back and thought it would make a handy rough shooting gun or hide gun. Which it would, I just don't have enough need for one to warrant keeping it. Nice strong workhorse of a gun, some nice basic game scene details, wood is not at all bad looking either. I'd keep it for a back up but I need the cabinet space! Barrels measure 25&5/8" Choke is I think 1/2 and full, if I remember correctly although I
  11. That's a big 'if'! but in the unlikely event I need to move it on, you'll get the call. Cheers Mac, shows the wood a bit better like that. For those interested, the barrel is 23&1/4" long. overall length is 46" Jim
  12. PoS: lovely looking gun that, much more like what I've found in my research. Thanks for the tip about badgerginger, I may seek him out. I have just had a lovely conversation with Mr Bowkett himself, what a lovely man! He seems to think that what I have is a genuine Stalker, the stock is probably walnut (although it doesn't look it), it's more than likely had a barrel change at some point as although JB did make some that long for customers, this one doesn't have a serial number stamped into it. So it's not the original barrel, probably changed for a longer one for more power. At some p
  13. I'd love to, if only I could find some contact details for him. Mr Bowkett might be a better place to start I suppose.
  14. Hi all, I picked up this gun over the weekend and set about doing some research on it. It has a brass plate on the side saying Stalker Rifles made in England by Adrian Hartley. Not the greatest pic I know, I'll get some better ones up if needed. Info is sparse but essentially here's what I've found out so far.... Adrian started out trying to produce the finest air rifles he could, and used John Bowkett to do some of his engineering work for a time. Stalkers are considered to be among the finest air rifles ever made it seems, which was kind of the point of them! Some wher
  15. Nah, you got it right mate. That's what they're doing, the folks organising the Stoneleigh one (Blaze Media I think) have cancelled their show and thrown their eggs into the Ragley Halll lots basket. Probably sensible if you ask me!
  16. apparently tickets might be valid for the Ragley Hall event the following weekend.
  17. What a fantastic transformation! I've just started to refurb my 52, so this is particularly interesting. I'd heard they are tricky to take apart due to some bearings in the trigger or something? did you have any issues? James
  18. I'd just bought my tickets at lunchtime too! Bugger. https://www.ukgamefair.com/news/uk-game-fair-cancels-and-backs-the-game-fair-at-ragley-hall/
  19. https://www.ukgamefair.com/news/uk-game-fair-cancels-and-backs-the-game-fair-at-ragley-hall/ Check it out folks.
  20. I've decided to keep this gun, it's too good! NO LONGER FOR SALE!!!
  21. Thanks Jonnie! It's a real peach, I've enjoyed it a lot, just need to raise funds for my FAC other wise as I say, I'd definitely be keeping it. Thanks for a sweet deal back then, hope I get an equally happy buyer this time! J
  22. Well here's my V-Mach tuned Air Arms Prosport, .177. Beech stock. A lovely gun, super accurate in the right hands! Great for hunting or target work, this will not disappoint. Shooting at 11.4 ft/lbs with AA field pellets. Comes with sling, QD stud and barrel clamp. These are the proper blued metal parts (£30!), not cheap rubbish. Also supplied is the original piston, spring guide and tophat. Excellent condition. £320 ono - price is negotiable, but no really silly offers please, we all know how good these guns are. Only selling to fund FAC rifles as my ticket just came in. If I had the
