    I think that's a pretty ingenious design. But I do worry about the build quality... and it's fugly.
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I'm more worried about a new £50 Daystate magazine I bought last week.
    It doesn't work!

    But not as well or as cheaply?

    Its better to use than my Goldstar.
    Theoben did a lovely one but it was heavy,tricky to operate and v.expensive.

    Had a look at gingernut's Gamo and impressed with what seems to be a simple and efficient feed system. Two comments I would make is why did they not make the large barrel shroud an integral silencer, and the wooden stock seems to transmit a lot of noise through to the shooters face as gingernut pointed out to me. Perhaps the synthetic stock will be a better option.

    And this is a break barrel , not an underlever, and it is a game changer. It is affordable , it works (really well) and it's the only one on the market. It also comes with an adjustable cheek price and a useable scope. The whole package in one.
