    After a great deal of thought, I placed an order for one on Tuesday and it arrived on Thursday. I just went for a .22 barrel based on the advice of an owner who had bought .22 and .25 barrels. Its a complicated bit of kit but obviously quality engineering. I'm hoping my confidence isn't misplaced but time will tell no doubt.

    I owned the 12fp version with .177 and .22 barrels last year and had no problems whatsoever with it. A great gun.

    I purchased the second revision sub 12 in .22 (then purchased the .177 kit) last June and it’s still going strong, I love the rifle, and I mostly use it for target .177.

    The only negative I have found is it’s super accurate providing I regularly clean the barrel (every 250 pellets)

    I’m using JSB heavy 10.34 4.52

    It’s definitely a rifle I will never sell.

    I have a customer that buys one in each colour and caliber. ie 4 (2x.22 2x.177). Had six months now and no problems so far. Sold quite a few more and not had any issues/faults with any. Only sold 2 fac's which i was surprised about as would have thought they would have been very poular.

    I suppose BAR won't know if the problems with the Impact have been resolved until they start selling them again.
