My second rifle was a tornado ( first was a little Milbro and i wore it out). I wanted an underlever, i especially wanted a W+Scott mk 3 but was well pleased with the Relum ( SUCKER that i was then ) This was 70s and catalogues selling guns and tall tales from friends was the only source of knowledge.My friends with a mk3 and early airsporter werent very impressed but i could hold my own with it and i never found it innacurate but it didnt hold a candle in the looks dept. So one Xmas my mate gets a his second brand new break barrel Relum from Kays catalogue after the first one broke. I had the tornado about 18 months by now and only tuning it had was 3in1 oil regularly.
So one day he brags about how powerfull his gun is and we argued . So to settle we found a tin can with a thick base . They were thicker then and the only way to chrono your gun we knew off. I went first and put a healthy dent in this can. He took his turn and the little S**t went straight through this can.
I took the humilliation well for a teenager. I beat him up on the spot and bought an airsporter mk6 asap.
