    Newby from Holland!

    To prove not everything foreign has to be 'muck', I'll take the time to introduce myself politely.

    My name is Tim and I live in the Netherlands. That said, you will have to excuse me for the errors in my spelling. I've read the rules from this forumm:
    The use of 'Text Speak' such as 'ur', 'm8', 'ppl' and '' is not appreciated. Posts containing this kind of writing will be edited or deleted entirely. Please refrain from using it, instead you can use the English language we were blessed with.
    I won't use text spreak (hate that myself too), but since I'm not blessed with being raised speaking English, you might stumble across some embarassing errors. Feel free to laugh, but please don't hold it against me!

    Being a motorcycle enthousiast, I've just recently discovered that BSA made and still makes airrifles. Having concluded that would make a nice hobby, I've brought 3 Meteors from England while I was on holiday. Further there's a Cadat Major.

    I've been working on the BSA's, trying to get them in optimum (but still with original parts) order. The nice thing about them is ofcourse the legendary brand, but also the great history behind them, the Meteor beeing the 'mother of all air rifles', a little bit of that famous old British engineering and... well I don't have to explain that to you I guess.

    Anyway, since there are not a lot of them around here in the Netherlands, I have to find my parts en information abroad and hopefully Airgun BBS will be a good source of information. I hope I can contribute something usefull in the future, but for now, I'm afraid I won't be of much use for others.

    Cheers!

    Tim
