Thinking of Getting a New Rifle

[mark01856 7]

i Have a Logun s.16-s, its a good rifle, but i find it to be a bit on the fiddley side, and it isnt the most reliable thing, so i am thinking of using it primarily for night time shooting, and im looking to buy a new rifle, that is more easy to use, and more reliable,

 

my budget is pretty tight( girlfriend wont let me spend much!) i am thinking on getting the BSA Scorpion or bsa Ultra.

 

i am looking for a rifle that is

 

Reliable

Accurate

Not Too Pricey

Multi shot

Customisable

light weight

 

i will be using the rifle mainly for rabbits. but will use it for crows magpie and pigeon.

 

Any Ideas??

i did that when i bought the logun a couple o months ago, and we just moving house so cant really justify spending much.

 

i told her my logun cost 150 quid, when i actually bought it for 500.

 

but thanks for your advice

Id be pretty pissed if i paid 500 squid for an air rifle and it wasn`t reliable.

yea, well it not so much it not reliable, its just... i dont know really it just dont feel right, it not good for walking around the fields, i think it be more suited for shooting prone.

Im not sure if you can do this its just a thought, but i think you can part exchange it in to a gunshop for cash, which you can buy another gun there or swap it for another gun at the same shop, but mitsake me if im wrong.

 

Hope that helped.

 

Thanks.

£500 for the S16

 

Sell the S16 mate and put the money you get for it to the money you've already got and buy a second hand Air Arms S410.

 

Light,multi shot,accurate and reliable.

it came with gun bag, stirrup pump, scope, bipod, laser, it didnt seem to bad of a deal.

 

 

i think i might have to sell it.

 

what is your opinion on the BSA Scorpion? as it looks to be a good gun?

Bsa ultras are suppose to be good lightweight rifles, but the only bad side ive heard about them is the number of shots they produce.
