    That is utter lies Mick My Mum buys them

    It's too many a year since my body was in the school playground but thankfully, my mind has never left it

    If I did go back to school now, I'd still be the smallest and biggest kid there

    Angry Aaaarrrgghhhh.....

    Doing my head in here!

    I know, it's daft and I really ought to just be happy and appreciate that I'm luckier than so many people out there, but this deciding what to have for Christmas is spinning me round in circles......

    I'd just about decided, "That's it, sorted, it'll be the Vigilante". And then, last night I remembered that you can now get the sublime HW40 in .22 (I already have the .177 and LOVE it). So, a duplicate, but I bigger bore flavour. Shall I, shall I?

    And then I just go back to thinking that what I really need and want is more time to actually shoot and tinker with the ones I already have. Many of which haven't been out of the cupboard in ages!
    Will an additional gun just be another that doesn't get used enough?

    Shall I just get a load of pellets, which I will get to use (eventually)?


    Help, boys!!

    Do you have a Webley Senior/early Premier? You won't find a nicer pistol to hold

    Yesterday I had a very pleasant afternoon with the Paul Short 97 - which having been upgraded to the titanium piston etc is my favourite springer by some margin. I set out the garden range witht he zero target out at 63 yards and just over half a tin of pellets later I was a happy man

    Might do the same again later on

    The back garden range - 63 yards out to the zero target. https://imgur.com/gallery/ZR6xC

    Zero target. The 15mm spinner above the target took some real hammer from the Paul Short 97 at 63 yards https://imgur.com/gallery/hntwA

    A good afternoon - over half a tin of pellets gone up the range https://imgur.com/gallery/Ddvrg

    I reckon get the pistol matey, it's something you don't currently own and lends itself to both indoor and out- door shooting. Yes, a HW40 in .22 would sit nicely next to your .177 version but it won't be that much different. And....... there is always your Birthday

    I have an HW40 in .177 and I can see why you like it. Its amazingly accurate and great value for money. I would be seriously tempted by the .22. I reckon whatever you do go for another pistol if its what you fancy. You can't have too many and its like I've explained my my better half its all their little differences that make them unique to us and the reason we need a collection.
