secretagentmole 1,701 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Try the Scorpion, the Mark one models can now be had from £400 new for a beech stocked multi! Nice lightweight, bolt action rifle! Quote Link to post
hypoboy 0 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 I'd recommend letting her try an Ultra before buying. A mate was going to buy one for his mrs. recently, but found she hadn't got the strength in her hands to cock it Quote Link to post
Buster321c 1,010 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 £600 ??? for a S400 series ??? Quote Link to post
chris k 205 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 theres no way in hell ide let my mrs loose with a gun. she'd try applying make up with 1 hand and shooting with the other!! Quote Link to post
weasle 1,119 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Buy her a nice new dyson 2 Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Thats why I said Scorpion, that pull back bolt is so easy to use and the lack of the MMC push button at the front means it reloads more easily, that MMC is a design flaw in the Ultra, otherwise it is a good gun, just cocking it is like doing the Hokey Cokey!

Thanks Jamie. hello all ..... i used to shoot the kids dads s410 it was a nice gun , he also had a theebon (i think) but that was a lot heavier and made my arms sore , the weight was a real issue for me but i really prefered the diving bottle powered guns to the spring powered ones atb sweetcheeks x Quote Link to post
Bugs Bunny 5 Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 thanks for the views guys & gals im thinking i will take her down to the gun shop on pay day and see what suites her and my pocket best. Quote Link to post
RatSniper 19 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 thanks for the views guys & gals im thinking i will take her down to the gun shop on pay day and see what suites her and my pocket best. Try the Airarms s200, baby of the s410 but is sweet for hunting, the carbine version would be perfect and light. I own a s410 and a s200 have i love the 410 more but the 200 is still capable of taking out all quarry for airguns. Or look at second hand s410 around £400-500 mark. Quote Link to post
rapidjenky 97 Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 got a nice little brocock concept super six here mate, slim light rifle, around 60 shots full power in 22cal. im looking to sell. the brocock concept is also a good choice! very small smart rifle. dose she really need a multi shot? ill also second the s200 as a good choice.

Lab 10,979 Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 In answer to the thread title i reckon a .222 will take her out nicely............. Quote Link to post
