Oh, that could be so good!

Let's hope unlike the Nagant it's putting out decent fps!
Indeed.
Nagant disappoints.
MP 40 doesn't.
Let's also hope some western rifle and carbine replicas are in the works,Winchester,Spencer,Springfield,Sharps etc.....
Somewhere I started a thread on who and where the Nagant Rifle and ( by default ) others are made -

Got given me a recent copy of Airgun Shooter and there was a piccy of this SMLE and the K98 coming too .
There is also an e-reader online sum'it thingey showing images stating July as release .

Think it fair to say things are delayed in getting them to the shops , but OP's link here shows a nicer lower price of £379 .
Somewhere saw it quoted as mid £400's
No info , doing a search brings nothing - Fps details , spares back-up . Who actually makes it would be nice to know ?
Very interested in the SMLE, as the No4 is something I have used a lot, and I owned a WWA/S&P air cartridge conversion back when you could (great fun, but also rubbish, it's saving grace being that it was a de-act that shot).
But, really, £400? For a plinker? I'm not saying I wouldn't, but £400 buys you a lot of "proper air rifle". Or a slightly dodgy used car.
About bloody time they brought out a British rifle, I'll be keeping an eye out for one of these, let's hope they bring out a STEN next

Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
Good grief, I paid nearly that for my fully working .303 version!
[QUOTE=mrto;7339003]Do you know what fps you're getting from your MP40?[/QUOTE
I don't.
It's a question of taking it to the range when my mate has his chrono there.
Rarely coincide and I'm more interested in testing stuff that needs to be under 12 ft lbs.
Same with 7 1/2 Peacemakers that I still haven't done!
The MP 40 is adequate in my opinion.
Whereas the Mosin isn't.
