    I had a Steyr lp5. Can't vouch for any other models or makes, but this pistol was great.

    I only want pre-charged.
    The world record is still held by CO2 I believe........ .

    Don't overlook the Tau, Alfa or Aeron just because they are cheaper as they will outshoot most, if not all of us. You'll get 70 or 80 shots from a 30p cartridge and no bottles to fill or test.

    Your cash, your choice.

    If buying new that probably rules out may of the top line Steyrs & FWB's. Try a Rohm Match. Around £600 new.

    I got my girlfriend one & it's a very accurate pistol indeed. Far more accurate than I can be!

    Far too many rifles & pistols to mention here.

    Oh ok then

    Had a go in the garden, not exactly Olympics worthy shooting lol but hey, it's a start! I didn't miss the pellet catcher

    Hopefully going to the Cambridge indoor club this Friday to start properly.

    I had to cut the targets down as I only have a 14x14 holder, gonna order a proper size 17x17 today.

    Shoots lovely though and the electronic trigger is very nice.

    Edit - why cant I link direct to pics on here? Can't even upload attachments either

    I used the Rohn last week - it is a fine pistol and worth checking out

    The FWB's and Steyrs can be had second hand at that price

    I've never shot my Twinmaster from a rest, but the factory target that comes with it shows pretty much a single pellet hole at 10m.

    (It's for sale in the "for sale" section, BTW)

    Hey Andy, That looks cool, I am sure your groups will tighten up rapidly once you are at the range.

    Nice one Mate... Rgds, Dave...
