    Put a good quality control systems in place, prior to despatch, so that customers don't have to return
    items because of blatant obvious faults, to anyone who must have handled the item!!

    I am with him on that one! Even the mighty HW has fallen foul of that on many occasions!

    AA break barrel properly designed for 12 fpe, with a nice fishscale tx style stock which hides the barrel breakpoint. Shrouded barrel would be nice

    Almost with you on that one, just replace the stock with a beautiful Prosport stylee stock, if they're going to produce the best break barrel air rifle ever then at least make it look pretty like they did with the ultimate underlever.

    Also like already said BSA to produce another decent underlever or bring back the Airsporter with all of todays technology in it and a decent trigger to give the Prosport a run for it's money, even if it's just in the looks department.

    With you as far as the AA break barrel is concerned but ditch the Del Boyesque fish scales, a shrouded barrel would be nice but not the full on heavy weight one the HW98 carries. A slightly slimmer one like Birmingham Webley used to produce would be great.

    Good deals with BEESA, fat man, Rellum, Binners

    Yes,Airarms reinvented and improved the Airsporter now they need to apply the same approach to the Mercury.

    MTC

    MTC to release a simple, fixed parallax (35yards or so) 3-9x40 with the SCB reticle.

    Some proper modern air pistols, pellet firers with rifled barrels made of good quality materials that last longer than 5 minutes

    I wont hold my breath though

    Id like to see a HW99/50s with a stock with lines like the older supersports, and the cocking linkage from the HW95/98/80. Would be a winner for me.

    more interesting concepts that make you look twice....example the BSA mmc cocking system, the phoenix fast fire 10, verminator, SLR 88/98 multi shot springer, prosports hidden under leaver...just anything a bit quirky.

    All manufacturers to offer their guns in .177 .20 .22 and .25

    and mebys a fairly priced NV rig that had a range finding facility. I find it quite hard judging distances with nv at times
