    Which is the wrong rack to stare at then? I am an airgun aficionado, yes, but I know which rack I'd be staring at first, both then, and now . Ha ha. Cheers for the scans Dale, top draw archive . Atb: G.

    I well remember the adverts...especially the lady...does anyone have the magazine number/month for a decent review of the Jackal? A scan would be great as I could print out a copy.
    Cheers
