zini 1,939 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 I couldn't resist buying this baby today after shooting it up at SFS. The new amazing Imp. Just changed the stubby silencer for a HW silencer to keep it looking like a HW. I think that this is the best .22 vermin hunting springer I've ever shot with accuracy to complete with the best. 7 Quote Link to post

dangerousdan 16 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Why is it called an 'imp'? Quote Link to post
villaman 9,980 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Very nice but looks quit long , is it ? Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) The rifle is £375 tuned with small stubby silencer. The photo is me with a HW silencer fitted which is about 2 1/2 inch longer than the standard Imp silencer. Not sure why Tony called it a Imp mate. Ill post a photo of a standard Imp with the small silencer. No VM with the stubby fitted its around the size of a Ultra. Edited October 19, 2013 by zini Quote Link to post

pianoman 3,586 Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 An "Imp" is a small, demonic being that gets up to all sorts of mischief. A good name for a small but potent air rifle And no disrespect Si but your SWFS SPECTRE is pronounced "Specter or Speckter" A spectre is the name for a phantom, a spirit or ghost that brings a message or warning of doom or death. Another good name for a good air rifle. Tony can pick em! 1 Quote Link to post
