    Exclamation Sharps Pump Rifles??

    I've heard a rumour that Sharp pump rifles may be returning to the UK, that an importer is waiting for clearance that they comply with UK laws. It was also said that they are now made in Korea, and that they will be available with wood & plastic stocks, and @ a low price.Time will tell!!...mike...

    Mike,
    My RFD mentioned these several months ago, the story was that the anti-tamper would make them guaranteeably legal and impossible to strip, repair or service.
    I'll probably buy at least one!

    Response from Solware, to my email 25/03/2010

    "Hello they are currently still not available due to power issues so will advise as soon as they are and the info we have will be added to the page on the website

    thanks"




    I don't know if someone has asked more recently.

    Wasn't there power issue problems when Highland Outdoor intended to import them? In the end I understand they only sold them on F.A.C.

    What would your reason need to be for an Innova on an FAC?
    Lack of excercise?

    My chum has one on ticket.

    He doesn't want the bother of a diving cylinder ; he doesn't have the mobility in his back to work a pump ; he has sufficient upper body strength for a pump-up ; he doesn't want a springer on ticket ; and he doesn't have the space for a rimfire.
