Did any of you ever try one of these?
,i remember a test by john lyndon in the AGW in the very early 80's might even have been a bit before that ,(how time flys)
anyway i always wanted one ,but i never did get one of these,i think i got a chopper bike instead.

They had a nice wooded stock,and looked real good with a singlpoint on top i wonder if they were nice to shoot i think i had a bsf b 55 then ,kev.

BSF B55 is a vastly superior tool to the Jackal Woodsman, don't recon you missed much. How it finally evolved into the TX200 Mk III is one the the mysteries of British airgun engineering history, while the B55 startlingly and inexplicably went the way of the dodo.

Chunky wood chunky metal, a little rough and not very nice triggers and altogether a bit average. Big bang from the short unsilenced barrel.
