Other evening


Recommended Posts

Out with the rapid set up in .22 .The rapid has been a favourite of mine since I was a boy tbh .Probably the best pcp I’ve ever owned .Just before dark ,I pulled up at the dairy farm I do and the farmer said could I shoot any jackdaws that were crapping in the feed passageway .Carefully walked up the line of feeders and sure enough there was a corvid ,back to me and head down .A 50 m shit with the fac saw it spread winged and still .

Back to the van for a coffee and then a look round for a rat or two .First one paid the price for stopping too long followed by 7 more .Numbers well down from previous outings but you can only kill them once .

I've got what is a virtually brand new (Old Stock) OEM 12 shot, .22 Mag for the Theoben if you are interested.    Originally bought as a spare, and it's only just turned up again, the Rapid is sold so this is surplus.  Sensible offers considered, I know they are stupid money normally!:good:

If it’s spare mate I’ll have it foc ?.I’ve got 3 d printed mags tbh so not needed but if it’s collecting dust ?……?

I  remember the guy who I sold the rifle to said he could get the 3D quite cheap, even though I gave him 2 x 12 shot OEM mags in the deal.   How are you getting on with them, sensible offers considered from anyone on my proper Rapid one.

Cheers

Tbh Chris the old rapid mags are superseded by 17 shot printed mags that are just as reliable if not more than the original and don’t rattle in your pocket either .

Only a purist would want that mag but good luck with the sale .
