Mellish 0 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 My son's friend brought over his birthday present, an SMK 19 springer. I didn't have the heart to tell him the gun should have banned under the Trade Practices Act for not doing what it sez on the tin - shoot targets: I couldn't zero it within 3 inches even at 10 metres. The plasticsights are fixed on out of line - it's a mess. The question is, for those of you who've done a bit of gun-smithing, is there any hope? Will a new crown or anything at all make this gun shoot straight? Quote Link to post

This is not right and should definately be capable of doing better than this ...BUT.....be aware that rifles costing £200-£300-£400-£500+++ COST THAT FOR A REASON...this is a budget gun and in all reality is meant for a bit of fun in the back garden...you are not going to win anything at the Olympics with one of these!!
