You need to give us a bit more info. There are loads for that money but as different as chalk and cheese.

£200 will get you a 2240 with lots of money for a steel breech, silencer and a pistol scope and get it nicely sorted, its accurate and powerful. It will also get you a 2nd hand Umarex pistol that's less accurate and less powerful but multishot. You could also get a pair of 1911's that have no power and no accuracy but are unbeatable for fun plinking (until a BB comes back at you).

The Umerex CP88 CO2 pellet repeater, the Swiss Arms 1911 CO2 BB blowback repeater, and the Webley Tempest spring powered are a diverse selection, but all good fun. The CO2 pellet is efficient on gas but encourages use of pellets (to use up the gas). The CO2 BB with blowback is heavy on gas but cheap on BB. The spring gun costs nothing to run, is slow to use pellets, has more power and is more of a challenge. This is only a small sample of what is available, whatever you start with will probably lead to another depending whether you want a realistic replica, power, accuracy, durability, quality.
