    HW110, but heard so many bad reports about indexing and barrel problems it has put me off

    I would love to add a benjamin armada to my collection, but no way is that a £1000 gun...

    Yes. Have to agree. Same reaction to Edgun Leishy.......for a single shot.....its a heavy price.

    To one shot one kill, you need to seek the S. Kill only comes from Skill

    Fantastic design though isn't it? Robust, super compact and simple.

    Yes its genius in its simplicity but jeez.....you are not far of an FX impact which...if it actually worked reliably and wasnt fiiltted with the stupid smooth twist barrel would blow it out of the water

    Always wanted a Whiscombe as the ultimate in springer engineering: I had the cash available just as John announced he was stopping making them. I was later offered a barrel-loading version for a good price and turned it down - WHY??!!

    Now, any variant of John's work is going for ultra silly money and beyond my pocket.

    I genuinely don't understand this. The Impact is not a reliable gun whereas the Leshiy is made to an unbelievably high standard and performs brilliantly. Surely having more features on an unreliable product is a waste of time and money?
