    Thumbs up

    Good to hear about positive customer service. We are quick to complain about lousy service but rarely applaud good service. Well done BAR!!!

    Lucky man. Well done in securing the HW55T. It looked superb in the photo and I didnt think it would hang around for long in BAR.
    I hope to pick one up myself some day.

    Another thumbs up for BAR from me. I've always found them to be a friendly crew who are willing to help whenever they can.

    I was over in B.A.R. on Friday and had a look at that '55. It was in excellent condition.

    Some of those prices might give the old boys on here a coronary, so I've snipped the photo from the BAR website...

    Similar requests will only be actioned for Left handed rifles, righties have it too easy and can do their own.

    I did hum and aaah about it but I already have a very tidy HW55 in my collection, even if its is right handed and , to be perfectly honest I prefer the WALTHER mod 55 which has a nicer shooting action and in the examples I own a smoother cocking action.

    Nothing. Or is that a thing?
