I regretted selling my .22 TX to Mister Trumpetier, so bought another in .177 which, after a Nick Gibney conversion, is quite simply the nicest springer that I have ever owned. How I wish that Air Arms would produce one in .20. Tried a ProSport too but prefer the seemingly more robust cocking lever of the TX.
Hello Nick,
It wasn't as much as £200 and I did deliberate somewhat to start with. However, this was for a rifle that I fully intend to keep so on balance, yes - I felt it was well worth it. I've tweaked a few myself in the past but although my own efforts have resulted in considerable improvement over the original, NG's conversion is streets ahead. It has a lovely firing cycle.
It's all too easy for costs to mount up. Adjustable butt-pads, fancy trigger blades, unnecessarily-expensive 'scopes etc etc. I don't have any of those but I'm pleased to have the NG components.
I love the AA rifles but just don't know why AA don't use similar components themselves!
