    Hi Folks

    Hi Folks

    I'm Mick. New to the Site and just wanted to say hello.

    I'm down to just one PCP rifle these days but as, I've just got back into target shooting I will be looking to get more soon.

    My current Old faithful that I just cannot fault is an owned from new RWS Rapier .22 (or FX Timberwolf but the RWS looks better) I love this gun and it looks great. still in it's original RWS hard case. its not got a fancy scope or a top end bipod but it certainly dose the job.

    I'm currently looking At an FX wildcat .22. I look the look and feel and how it shoots. shame the all seem to score that mags with the indexing arm.

    And yes I do like FX Air Rifles. I've had Daystates and Weihrauchs in the past but they always feel a bit on the chunky side on the fore grips for my liking. and I'm not a petit bloke.

    I'm going to be looking for a Project rile in the not to distant future but more about that once I decide what I want out of it.

    Thanks for the Hi's Folks. :-).

    Now it's time to start to asking probably daft questions :-).

    Like when the Wife says your 46 have 2 kids under 2 and you play with pop guns......

    To be fair to her, that's a statement rather than a question.


    And welcome to the BBS.

    Have a look at Blackburn Outdoor Airgun Club via the link in my signature.
    Or Rivington Riflemen.
    Both friendly and not too far from you.
