    For sale?

    Not likely Eredel, it's a top bit of kit and I'm definately not bored of it . But thank you for the kind comments. Deben now do them but they will be going up in price
    Hope you find one going cheap second hand somewhere. All the best.

    Regards

    Eredel

    The Ranchero does about 60-70 shots I think. Not counted though. Mine has the power adjuster on it so does 2, 4 and 6ftlb. It was bought in the US. Incidentally, I've been told that I can increase the power just by flipping the adjuster wheel over (if i take the action off to do this) should I want to turn this into a carbine rifle. By the way it's on sale in the US at Airguns of Arizona for $1,095!

    By the way is this the Falcon you have?

    Thanks for the info on the Ranchero Mr Sheene....
    Here's my FN6.....silencer is now black and scope has been replaced with a Simmons red dot.
    Eric.

    PS...did you buy your Ranchero whilst in the states or import it if you don't mind me asking.

    Like the Falcon, always thought they were nice. I bought my Ranchero in the states, dead easy to bring through customs. If you go out there, do what I did, I ordered it prior to leaving England and had it delivered to the hotel who kept it for me till I got there. If you're gonna get one from the states delivered to England, you may get stung by HM Customs.

    Hi Keith...hope you're getting on better than I did with the scope, just don't like them because they magnify my unsteady aim...

    Porky & Eredel

    Thanks for the kind comments. Pistols scopes are good but can make things look unsteady which is why I got a 2x mag only.

    By the way, I can't believe how cheap all those airguns are in the states. For example, all those Umarex CO2 guns which I do like are sold for anywhere between £30-£80!!

    I had a crooked barn custom, got the extended barrel, action etc and valve. Was the dogs doodahs. Had an EB22 that I chromed and gold plated. That was quite a looker. It's in another thread on this page under where my sunglasses.
