Nice review of a very good product of Air Arms. I have promised myself one one day. atb

Had a PS myself, walnut 4.5mm, new model.
Looked GREAT, was véry easy to shoot accurately, balanced well, FAR better than HW97, TX, VERY accurate, no twang, very good trigger.
Bút sold it anyway, blueing was a tad too greyish for my liking and stock ergo's are too universal for me; you don't become 'one' with it..
The UK price for the PS is very good, the dutch one is too expensive imo.
Loud to cock as well, the PS, and cocking&loading took some getting used to for a breakbarrel shooter like me!
Be sure to check the cocking arm allen screw, they like to loosen up!

Good review mate and a very nice gun too! I have a TX200 and have only recently started using it regularly so I can sympathise with you on the standing shots!!
One question I do have is about the cocking arm. The TX is very easy with the underlever but I have read mixed reviews on the PS underlever. Is it as uncomfortable as some would have you believe?

I am looking at getting a Pro sport. They seem to tick all the boxes for what I want, But is the weight a real issue? I have held a couple and they dont seem too bad. But I dont know if it will be a problem in the long term.

Hi there I wouldn't describle it as uncomfortable and it doesnt really take much effort to be honest and im a bit of a lightweight . However it has an automatic safety catch and when I first got the rifle I found that I wasnt cocking it "properly". i.e. I wasn't taking the underlever all the way back until the safety catch was engaging. So I'd got to take my shot and found i hadnt actually cocked it. I wouldnt really call this a problem, it was more me being a div. Its the kind of thing you do once or twice when you first get the rifle and then you dont do it again.
