    It's amazing to think this rifle is around 30 years old and in that time has sustained so little wear - the stock is so clean it looks hardly used! When you look at the retail prices of new air rifles, it seems like an incredible bargain.

    To quote that tired old cliche, 'The photos don't do it justice' Garvin.
    It's just had five test shots over the chrono to make sure all is well, 11.75 ft/lb and three of the five shots produced the same velocity.
    And a man who really knows his springers commented that it was one of the nicest FWB's he's fired, it really is a pleasure to shoot.

    I thought it might have sold by now, i realise that i'm restricting my market by refusing to post but i don't have suitable packaging and i am very reluctant to risk posting.

    Well spotted, Maz. Better not to rely on those safeties anyway, in my experience...

    Correct. Didn't have one when i bought it, it's not needed but a replacement would be the icing on the cake.
