    t.r robb is my local shop , about 25 mins away . and i have found him to be a thoroughly nice bloke , always willing to talk about what his been up to in the world of airguns. his second hand prices are some of the cheapest around.
    with excellent back up if something goes tits up with a purchase.
    also he does not try to sell you crap , if something is crap he will let you know
    i,e loguns

    Couldn't agree more, bought several rifles from him, new and secondhand cheaper than anywhere else, and problems sorted without fuss!

    Thumbs up T R Robb in Southend

    Hi.
    I used to deal here a few years ago. About 10 to be more exact.
    I always got treated politely and fairly.
    I moved to Bristol when I retired and stupidly sold the Sharp Innova that I purchased from T R Robb.

    Here we go again!

    It may be that before my time, four or more years ago, that T Robb upset the applecart of someone influential on this BBS by talking straight.

    He does that, but he is a good engineer, and if you can tell him what you want, he will make it well.

    IME, Terry doesn't go in for esoteric things - you need to know what you are talking about. Say what you want to do, allow for his slightly forceful point of view, and take it on board, because he has a lot of experience.

    Discuss it with him and then tell him what you want, and why, and he will do exactly what you want.

    Someone put in a poisoned seed, a long time ago, and it still seems to hold sway for some reason. I think it's rather unfair.

    Alan.

    I first met him a couple of weeks ago, I went in to look at the qb78's as I was thinking of getting one and even though he knew I was getting it second hand he gave me all the time in the world and couldn't of been more helpfull. I'd not touched an airgun for years but he still treated me with respect and was happy to answere various (and sometimes newb) questions.
    Cheers

    I dealt with him 2 or 3 times by mail order a few years ago, each time I was dissappionted by overpriced shoddy goods so stopped dealing with him.
    Personally I wouldn't recommend him, but obviously others have had better service.
