Lovely looking rifle handsome Jon  - classics always are.

                     I was shooting the Mercury rifle in .22 way back in the 70`s and took a hillside of vermin with them.

Ayeeee to be 17 again 

                    Great addition handsome Jon. 

Cheers Mark 

 

Aye, I remember doing ok with my old Challenger but, I hadn't been spoilt by tuned springers and PCPs back then - I just hope I can do this one justice and put it to some good use

Not doing much shooting at the moment mate, things in life to cope with, and medication not helping.  But worse thing happen at see. 

So if one is still breathing then all is fine Jonjon. 

All the very best for you and yours mate

I'm looking forward to having a go with that Beeman mate. I've been reading up on them - the yanks love them. They rate them as a mini magnum Springer

 

I saw Si's video - it's impressive stuff and, I'll tell you something else mate - there'll be nothing wrong at all with your work on it

 

Besides, I never want to see that horrible little 57 ever again

That horrible 57 is taking pride of place next to her big sister the 97

and by the time si,s done with her it will not be horrible any more lol
