mark739 1 Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 Hello mate, i would think twice about getting a R10 as i got mine December last year, this was the mark 2 version however it spent most of its time back at BSA. The gun shop were very good with me and i ended up exchanging it for the HW100 and that is simply awesome. Just a bit of friendly advice mate. Quote Link to post
