[So Much Choice But There Can Only Be One !]

thanks for the feed back guys much appreciated. Will be heading to my local shop tomorrow to have a look at the rifles I've mentioned. And I guess with the pro sport cocking lever being flimsy or somehow getting broken that must be down to either a heavy handed person or just a rare case. Going to leave out the lgv decided its not my cup of tea.

[So Much Choice But There Can Only Be One !]

hello all .after shooting shotguns and firearms the last 5 years I've decided to pack it in for a while. Was getting a little to expensive and for too long I haven't been able to go out as much as id like. Only 4 or 5 times the last 6 months ! so soled everything and found myself wanting to get back into air rifle shooting. Looking to spend about 450 to 550 total with a decent scope also I'm looking to buy brand new right out of the box.my preferred calibre is .177.so the 3 rifles I've got it down to are the ..hw 97kt/air arms pro sport/ walther lgv competition. Looking for anyone with experience with these rifles and what you guys think. Just a couple of specific questions...

 

1.is it true that the cocking lever on the pro sport can be broken easy ? or that the rifle after a while starts to fall apart ? screws and general wear and tear etc.

 

2.as I wont be looking to do any after market tune up kits should I skip the 97kt ? hear that its a not as good as the other two right out of the box.

 

3.is there any other top end rifle I should be looking at ? I've had a tx 200 before. The semi recoil one at that ! ..fantastic rifle.But I wont be buying another tx 200.

 

thanks for your time sorry for the essay !
