    rare/old match rifles

    I am looking for a match airrifle to train at home for smallbore. And offcourse, for ownerspride and fun! At first, I only looked at the Diana 75U, but than I figured, why not an older, rare matchgun! Its for practise anyway..
    Like: Webley Supertarget, Haenel MLG550, Walther LG55 and the other breakbarrel (LGV?) with T stock, Diana 65 with T stock...
    Are there any other nice, good, rifles to consider?
    I'm not looking for FWB300's, or Anschutz 220/250 etc.

    Do you have any experiences with the above mentioned matchrifles?Pro's and con's?
    ATB,
    yana

    If u can find one what about an HW55!, few guns could out shoot this surpressed recoil gun in its day.

    The Walther 55 is lovely and has a nicer trigger than the HW55. Get one of them.

    I have a few you would probably be interested in Yana. But since there's no way of sending air rifles to Holland with any certainty that the insurance would pay out if they were knackered, I'm not keen to offer them.
