    My Osprey Supertarget is a bit of a mongrel really as it has the sights you know Webley would be using if they were to make this rifle today, and although the collectors may prefer to screw the old bits back on again I think the new Air Arms sights makes the rifle look sleeker and more up to date.

    They are also easy and affordable to replace in the event of an unexpected disaster.

    Thanks for your support Mark.

    I will try to get your entry pack away tomorrow if I can - if not it - will be early next week as I am away on Friday until early next week but it should be with you late next week at the worst

    Best regards,

    Bob.

    Thanks Mark,

    I have your payment OK but there was no address on the PayPal payment receipt.

    Please let me have your address by PM or email so I can send your rifle entry pack to you.

    Thanks for your support and for sending it as a gift so we have no fees to deduct.

    Bob.

    o blimey sherlock doesnt miss a thing! .well first 30/40 shots look good ,got the diopter zeroed but as im starting to bond with the "hammy"
    im thinking that one of those super looking anchutz diopters that proteks have in with all the adjustable bits on might tip the scales in my favour when the first volley is fired in anger!.vick did say he had a very special hammerli diopter, but at £250plus thats a £100 more than the rifle cost umm!
    i upgraded the dusty milbro one for a more interesting adj one .more to come later.

    I was thinking of getting this Bob: http://www.sportwaffen-schneider.de/...ducts_id/21080 German version HW30 (so only 5.5 ft/lbs, ideal for paper?). And at only £170. in english money including the HW diopter - it seems a bit of a bargain.

    However, one of my senior coaches reckons it might be a bit too lightweight. So I might be getting something much, much sexier

    Must make a decision soon though, cos I have to be measured up for shooting boots, knee pads, helmet etc - Them I'm off training with the Russian olympic squad for two years. Returning for one day a month to shoot my MPL cards at home... It's going to be fun

    Good luck mate
