    Ooooo.... that's a bit good.

    I too wonder what trigger tinkering it can take - and how the grip is attached/being capable of being easily replaced....

    66 quid shipped from Poland! Good old free market. I wonder how much airguns would go up in price if we left the EU, a remortgage on the house I think !

    Trophy Pistol

    And I thought 159 was cheap but 48 is a bloody steal.

    I wonder if it can converted to bulk fill as well!

    The pistols are made in China by a company that makes stuff for the military. They have a non-adjustable trigger even though the blow up diagram shows an adjuster. A bit like a well thought out 2240 inside with a very robust firing valve in a hard anodised valve body and a filter on the CO2 inlet (take heed Crosman!!). The stock is fitted on with a bolt in the trigger guard and a small button head at the back of the stock. Absolutely cracking little pistols distributed to the trade by those nice people in Harrogate, who unfortunately have run out of .177. Having done quite a bit of testing on these pistols I can tell you they are uber reliable with power levels that will not disappoint. And can( with a bit of fiddling) be fitted with a half inch silencer adapter that makes them almost silent with an Swift Stumpy on. .25 version in the pipeline I'm informed.
    I can email an exploded diagram if anyone would like one. Just PM me with your details.
    You want it fixed when??!

    Sounds very good and they look good too ,pity about the non adjustable trigger but I'm willing to forgive it if I could find one in a rfd or even in a European country with our power limits 😈 that .25 version sounds promising too !
    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 !

    Why would the price be any different?

    You have a slight problem if ordering from Poland, it's advertised at 140 meters per second in .22, which is 459fps. There's no mention of pellet weight, but assuming for example AA Fields at 16grain, it produces 7.48fpe. Even with 14.3grain pellets, produces 6.69fpe at that speed.
    11.9grain hobbies come in at 5.56fpe, but that's not to believe this is what the velocity is quoted on.

    It could be that we are getting a de-tuned version for the UK, but then again, i could be wrong. All depends on what pellet weight those manufacturer specs were set on

    The ones I've seen advertised were quoted at 5.5ft/lbs in .177 and unusually, slightly lower in .22 at 5.0 ft/lbs when I would have expected that to be the other way around.
    Should be very straughtforward to restrict though if needed...
