New member just brought HW45 BLACK STAR

[Hotshot666]

You say that you need FAC for any airgun ? wow what the xxxx.how long has it been lie that over there ?

Do you think it could go like that in the uk soon ,How hard is it to get FAC just for an airgun ?.what happend to all the peoples guns that people had ? what about people that have just forgot they had an airgun in the shed or in the loft somewhere ?.say if the law comes in to be the same in the uk as N. Ireland & people had lots of airguns but did not want to get a FAC ? would there guns be taken away ? did N. Ireland gov give people all there money back ?.That sucks over there why did people let the gov make that law up over there ?.all you lot should have told them no way & should have all stuck together like glue and fight back.

Could you get a FAC for an airgun just for shooting in your home in a indoor range,like a shed ?,would they let you have FAC just for that ?

I am so sorry to hear this,that makes me feel sick.they are treating ALL people like kids over there.



I have a bad right hand because I have broken it 4 times so far in my life,lets just say i have to much power in my arms for my silly little hands to handle.I have girls hands,they have always been weak,they are the downfull of my body .Everytime now if i knock my right hand just a little it will start to swell up.It sucks . Now i use my elbows instead if need be The photo of the sore near my wrist does not look much but it is,photo will not let it show well,it's much bigger looking in real life and is really red & sore,it is going to turn into a blister,I just now it.Yes now i need to rest my hands for a few days to let them recover.been out shooting again today & I need the rest now belive.

You've cocked a springer HW45 over 1000 times in the last 2 days...... How come only your hands are sore?....my whole upper torso would be aching now if I'd done it that many times. best not to overdo it or you might not enjoy it after a while. I used both my Hw 45's up at the club today...... enjoyed it immensely, but limited myself with the pellets... Do it all again on sunday lol. all the best.

is a star ok,i used to shoot an Alecto and rate the pistol as supremely accurate
and clinical with it.......that is why i sold it on as i needed a greater challenge
and the springer gives me that.
I believe you bought the better pistol first time,that said an Alecto would be
a great foil for the Star,atb,w

Lol yes I have shot just over 2 whole tins of pellets over the last 2 days ,it has been a lot of fun so the pain that I am feeling right now was worth it,JUST.

There is nothing ealse wrong with me though,THANK GOD,only my hands,well my right hand mostly because of my problem with it already.But I guess that will teach me,I should have walked away in the past.



prospector,hello mate.

I sold my Airarms s410 TDR because it was too easy to hit things with it & it took too much of the fun out of it for me.The HW45 is harder to shoot,but still for a spring pistol this powerful I think it is still easy to hit things with it.I have never shot the Alecto to compair.I think the HW45 Black Star is perfect,just right,not so easy it's not fun,& not to hard that it sucks.For me I think it's the best pistol I have ever shot for the fun factor.

Don't really know what easle to say,only if you buy one I am 99.98% sure you will love it or at least,like it a lot,just like what people was saying to me when i first started this thread asking if i would like it or not.People told me I would love it & they was right.I now know what all the HW45 fuss is about.seems very well made,feel lovely in my hands,looks just as good looking as my wife,if not better .

So to anyone thinking of buying one,with big fun factor in mind,this baby is the one for you.
