    Who is doing them local to us and do you have to order ?
    a gun is just a tool how its used is dependant on the person behind the trigger .
    This is why constant restrictions on legal users will have no effect on the unlawfull use of guns or knives !

    Picked my .22 mode;l up on Thursday last. Quality is exceptional, it dose put the offerings from Crossman to shame and I own a lot of the 22 series The accuracey is excellent and the only crticism I can level is maybe some stipling on the grip would be nice, just my observation. Well worth the price.

    I tried one in my local shop and the trigger guard is too small for me and has sharp edges which cut into my fingers. The trigger has a long creepy release. apart from that it looked really good.

    I have one and I'm really quite impressed (if you can get one at the right price) The pistol is well finished, good bluing and good wood to metal fit.
    The action is well machined from aluminium and matt blacked and the bolt works and seals well.
    The rear sight is mostly made from high density plastic, it fits on the 11mm sight rail and is adjustable for elevation and windage (no clicks)
    The trigger is single stage, just one long continuous gritty creep.
    The grips a very basic ambidextrous , made of Beech wood.

    Out of the box it won't win any competitions, however I think it has a lot of potential. A good polish up of all the moving bits will go a long way and some work on the grip to add a palm shelf and thumb rest will also help.

    I've had no problem keeping all 10 shots in the black on the 10m airpistol target (single hand/no rest) The sight line is quite high for a modern target pistol but more of a personal preference thing.

    So- A total redesign of the trigger unit to make a true two stage trigger adjusted to 500grams.
    New fitted grips and low level sights, barrel re-crown, slightly reduce power and you should have an entry level target pistol that really could be competitive.

    I like it.
