    Keep shooting those old BSA's

    I was plinking yesterday with a mk2 airsporter that I've owned for 40+ years.Its not great to look at but what a gun to shoot,smooth to cock and as accurate as my eyesight allows.My message?If you want your gun to shoot well,keep using it.

    Nicest looking springer ever made. With open sights I can hit 30 mm spinners at 30 yds regularly with mine. If my eyes were better, I reckon I could do it with every shot.
    Happy Shooting!! Paul.

    i still go hunting most weeks with a mk3 mercury i have tuned it a fair bit and enjoy the tinkering as much as the shooting i very rarely use the s400 as i find it to boring for plinking and my son uses it when we hunt though as i practice a lot more i am just as good with the merc as he is with the air arms my best shot is a 40 yard head shot in ideal conditions just wish i faired as well with age
    S400 Carbine
