hi darren.
How do ya think the (rifle) handles, i havent actually had a good go with one yet, ive just held it and shot it in a small 10m test range.
It felt a bit on the weighty side, but then i had expected that after holding the carbine cus that isn't what i would call "light weight" either, well compared to my AAS410K.
Though i had to order one at the price i was given which was brilliant for such a high quality, regulated, BSA, pcp <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Big Grin" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->

Oh yer, do you know the overall length of it with SAS silencer???
(rifle that is)
might order a gun slip soon.
cheers

No doubt that the carbine handles better. The rifle does require that little bit more concentration. Got a Ripper (Fac) silencer on mine and the stock ain't exactly std either.

i can't wait to get mine <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->
Somthing i didn't really notice in the gun shop where i held it that i noticed on a pic a m8 show me was that it actually (from a little distance) looks like a logun mkll with theSAS silencer fitted <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_eek.gif" alt="Eek" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt="Roll Eyes" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->

I think ill try the ol daystates first. They sound a decent pell.
