    Bsa

    I ordered a BSA ultra 2 weeks ago in single shot .177 sitting in a tactical stock!

    Placed the order via my gunshop not a problem...got a call today saying that they have discontinued the single shot ultra in tactical stock and the only option available would be to go for a beech stock instead

    I know some people don't like the tactical looking stocks but I did and this was only going to be used every so often and I wasn't bothered about marking the tactical stock!

    Did anybody else know about this as if I'm been honest I think it's quite poor of BSA not to notify gunshops about their changes to let customers know before they order equipment!!

    Cheers Adam

    I'd look around someone might still have them in stock, maybe place a wanted n ad in the wanted section here? a freind picked up a vgc one a couple of years ago for £220 secondhand .

    They do not listen to customers now, quite a few people liked the tactical stock (I prefer a nice bit if wood myself)...

    I have a credit note with the gunshop so I have to spend it with them!!

    I have just spoken to them and they have said that they will honour the price of a beech stock ultra for the same price as the tactical which is fair enough I thought!

    Maybe ill just take the beech stock and if I don't like it just see if there is an ultra tactical stock for sale!!

    You do not have to take a credit note, you are entitled to a full refund as they are unable to fulfill the order!

    As above, you are within your rights to a refund as they have failed to supply you any goods.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    I think he does! I don't know of many people who order an item from a shop and pay in full in advance. Deposit maybe, full price very unlikely.

    A few weeks ago, when I visited my local shop, Kexby Country Store, he had just taken delivery of some new Ultra Single Shot Tacticals. He told me that he had bought them on some sort of special price promotion, so I guess that BSA were running them out.

    It might be worth a call to him -ask for Paul. If he has any left, I'm sure he'd be happy to supply the shop that has your money. That way, everyone's happy - You get your first choice of gun, your shop keeps the deal and Paul sells another one.

    I must admit, I've never had a PCP....Shot a few, but not taken the plunge as yet. Handling one of these little tinkers made me feel more tempted than at any time in the past......

    And when you ring Paul, tell him Tony from Retford sent ya!

    Hope this helps,

    Tone.

    P.S. I thought I had spotted the other week that Blackpool Air Rifles also had them in stock......Just had a look on their site....If their site is up to date, it looks like they have them, too, so another avenue to explore....
