Always wanted a Sheridan, I finaly got a Silverstreak this year,It only took just over 30yrs.
Those Sussex Armory Jackal Pellets, great for going around corners. Pointed pellets what a load of nonsense... Sabo ones too.

Easy....BSA Airsporter in the late 60's !
Absolutly No Chance of owning one so a Gat made do instead !
Brider.
ps. could have been worse, my Mother borrowed the Grattens Catalogue now and again so it could have been a Relum !!!
“An airgun or two”………
I was given a Webley leaflet by a kindly shop assistant in D&P Guns of Harrow, as it was then. Within, there was an exploded view of the Vulcan and Tempest. I just had to own the Tempest but it took a few years before I was able to. I also hankered after a Webley Service after seeing a picture of one for the first time.

HI I have been out of FT for about 14 years , and just back on the scene and loving it greatly.
I have a RN10 with a Mick Dawes reg, muzzle and Mick Dawes barrell,
I am thinking of listing on the forsale part of here, I have just posted it on shooting the breeze at £650 it has is old reg , muzzle etc in the box as well, would this be a fair price as over the chrono it is shooting 743,744,743,744 which i know needs turning up. I am a left hooker so its no good to me.
I allways wanted a Sheridan. After some 25 years absence I got one in 2005 on my return to airguns. Its a Silver Streak with the Williams peep , it was worth the wait.
Mine was an Airsporter back in the very early 70s, but I made do and had seemingly endless hours of enjoyment with a .22 Meteor. It played hell with all sorts of ailing Airfix models! The Meteor lasted for many years until I finally got a fixed-barrel object of desire, an HW77 when they first appeared and I still have it today.
I eventually got my Airsporter last year!
The one that I wanted but didn't get was a saxby palmer Lee Enfield rifle conversion.
Always wanted an Airsporter, eventually got a Meteor, shot shedloads of pigeons and rats with it.
Rose tinted specs are wonderful...
I was deeply into Popular Mechanics when the first Hy-score adverts appeared. Who couldn't want the most powerful air pistol in the world? ;-)

For me it had to be an Airsporter but I got a Diana model 1.
Thats life (but I did enjoy it).
