    Well done Mike.

    Hope it grows and eventually becomes the font of all (Jackal) knowledge.

    Fair play to you Mike.

    Nice Website.

    I was going to get a website up & running a few year ago. Just never got round to it.

    I'll send you a list of the Jackals that I've got for your data soon enough.

    The JK47 is indeed a rare one & when I was younger I to saw that advert & wanted one of them & still do.

    Regards
    Paddy.

    Yes I know that Pat.

    But I'm still waiting for me to win the lottery, before I make you a sensible offer .

    Oh yes the wood stock SLR version would be cool.

    However with that one I have quite a few components that I could replicate one myself. Wood Butts, wood hand guards, flash hider, carry handle, Magazines.

    A thought Mike. Will this site also cater for the slightly later (and vastly superior build quality) Air Arms variants of the Jackal, too ??? Reason I ask, is that I have an almost pristine Air Arms Combat (S.A. version was the AR-7 I believe), that I'd like to see included at some point please, but it'd be your call. On the subject of the AA Combat, are they a particularly rare model (as well as a particularly loud one ), as several folk who know I own an AA Combat, keep asking me if I would sell/swap it with them ??? Atb: G.

    Yep the AA Combat is a quite rare one.

    It took me 18yrs to find one.

    By the the means of walking past someone at a gun club. Then me walking straight to him & done the deal. So in other words it found me


    As for the loudness, it is isn't it & has a slightly more kick aswell. But beautiful to shoot indeed

    Regards
    Paddy.

    Cheers Paddy, thought so, and mine is staying put as you know (as are the ear muffs ), but it is always nice to have an item's rarity confirmed by an oracle such as yourself . Atb: G.
