    Gamo Coyote or BSA Buccaneer

    Can anyone tell me if these are the same air rifle with a bit of badge engineering thrown in.

    Is the Gamo made by BSA in Brum or is the BSA made by Gamo in Spain!

    I feel I need to know, oh and why can't we have the BSA in this country. Here is the BSA, you all should know by now what the Gamo looks like

    Oh and why have the airgun mags not made this connection?

    And for those without a calculator I made 399 euros a mere £327 at todays exchange rate. Looks like they post to the UK.

    Different stocks and air gauge I think.
    I have handled a Coyote which has a red BSA mag and the words 'hammered barrel 'engraved on the barrel.
    Clues?
    A well made,straightforward chunky air rifle.
    I would not have guessed Gamo or BSA on first glance.
    Should sell well if it shoots well.

    My grandfather used to say BSA stood for 'Bloody Sore Arse', but that was his motorbike he was refering to.
