    What is the most inaccurate airgun you know of ?

    I was remembering the old push in Gat type pistols and how as a kid I could hardly hit any target, I seem to remember push in rifles or was I dreaming
    Anyway surely there can't be any airgun less accurate, or is there

    I remember seeing a push in rifle but the Gat must be the King of Inaccuracy.

    My uncle once bought a .177 BSA lightning XL tactical, brand new from a shop. Lovely looking gun but would be more effective with a bayonet fitted .
    Went back to BSA for a new barrel. Came back, still dog turd accuracy.
    Lives in his cupboard now. Never sees the light of day

    A .177 SMK B2 bought used for £10.
    Shot gun like groups at ten yards,I rodded a few pellets down the bore to discover the cause.
    A multi calibre barrel .

    Makarov MP-654K. The BBs go swerving off in all directions, like they've got more slice than Roger Federer. Maybe I'm using the wrong BBs...

    If I only include "proper" airguns, ie something that should be accurate, then it has to be the Stealth. I've owned a few of these and they really are shocking in every respect and give the word "turd" a bad name.

    If Mr Heath Robinson had designed an airgun,probably what he'd have come up with.

    Literally the only target I could hit with my Gat was cows.

    And it didn't bother them in the slightest.

    Nope: pretty certain you are not dreaming about push in barrel rifles ... or am I thinking about a Gat with a shoulder stock? I saw some Gat 'rifles' at a recent military fair. The chap on the stall was commenting that spares were now impossible to get so once those 'rifles' were broken, that was it.

    Cheers, Phil
