    best thing to do is a search.

    loads of threads relating to them so you can make your own mind up.

    the advice most people will give you is to get down to your nearest club or shop and try as many as possible. the stealth just might not 'fit' properly.

    the air arms s400 / 410 comes highly rated on here as do rapids, supertens and the weihrauch hw100.

    my advice is to buy the best gun that 'fits' you that you can afford (and remember to budget for charging gear and a decent scope and set of mounts too!)

    Hello............

    Best advice you can have is try before you buy.

    No regrets that way

    You can get some good second hand deals from the sales section on here.
    Might be worth looking at.

    Welcome Clive to the BBS. Good luck with the search for a gun.

    Personally, I wouldn't touch a Stealth with a bargepole. I just don't like the "machine gun" look at all and my doubts have increased with the recent experience of a BBS member (name escapes me for the moment) who had the full armed response mob out after him. The Stealth he touted didn't help matters.

    Hi Clive
    get a stealth if it's what you want. I have one and it fits me 100%,
    I like the looks of the stealth. shoots well 1in groups @30mt. kills bunnys. and you can buy loads of bolt-ons for it..(does what it says on the tin)
    ps and upto 500 shoots per charge...
    regards karl
    The point is to have fun
