    Can't argue with that ... After all, what other standard rifle affords you enough time between pulling the trigger, and the pellet setting off, to nip to the kitchen, and pop the kettle on to make a brew . Ha ha ha.

    Imho, due to its long stroke, the standard 12ft.lb Tommy was woeful, which was why Webley axed it after only a year, and introduced the Longbow, which I concede, is very nearly as good as the Omega, but just lacks the refined Anschutz style release catch and open sight facility that the Omega sports -- features each, which set the Omega above all others . The Tomahawk was/is a beaut in FAC around 22ft.lb in .22, and 16ft.lb in .177 however, as imo, that is what it was really designed for. Atb: G.

    As a fellow collector, that was a good deal matey, as the C1, is a lovely looking Vulcan variant, and quite rare . Still think you were short changed on the quality of your PS's trigger though, especially being new, and I'd've kicked up a stink (am good at stinking ) if it'd been me, and sent it off to AA to sort. All is well that ends well however as assume the PS's new owner has managed to have the trigger correctly set, or has grown to like it as it is . Atb: G.
