Hi lads sorry I did not get back on yesterday to busy polishing my new airsporter , yes thats wright i was the one who wanted it that bad. The truth is I remember these guns from when I was a kid admiring them in our local shop Mark Taylors it sold toys, bikes and right at the back on the right hand side was air guns b.s.a ,webley,gat, diana the odd daisy then later a.s.i. but it was the mercurys and airsporters I wanted but you know when your 9-10 its way out of reach. As I got older weirauchs came into fashion Mark Taylors went and for my 13th birthday I received a hw77 tuned from the air gun centre which was brill way better in my youthful opinion than anything else. But has I got older I still found myself hankering for those B.S.As at one point owning then stupidly selling a stutzen.So I have now made my mind up that my funds from stopping smoking (£60.00 a week) will go to start me a little collection of some of the memories I have. The gun in question hasn't been bought to shoot I will get a used one for that but it will be in a display cabinet to be taken out and admired and who knows maybe in a good few years time when I pop me clogs some other lucky bugger will have it to look at .Did I pay over the odds well maybe but look at it this way I live in west cumbria, to go any where out of the county is a ball ache, take into consideration petrol,time and all the other crap you seem to spend on a journey I think you can knock the very expensive commission off the price, also got a little background on the gun so knew it was genuine.
The gun is absolute mint and I have s410s and a fac wildcat to shoot so I can just about leave it alone till i get some older springers to shoot.
Anyways hope I haven't bored you and thanks very much for the help at the start.
cheers
p.s. I stopped smoking over 3 years ago and my god those pounds quickly add up
