    Whats with the need to write "serial" before the serial number? Are only the stupidest people on the planet that dont know what a serial number looks like going to buy this gun?

    How boringly predictable.

    Mods, please move this to General Airgun, ideally to a new sub-forum called "boring probably over-priced PCP bullpups".

    I have never watched Peaky Blinders, but I gather it is set in 1929. And I have noted that one of the protagonists is widely pictured holding a 1930 model Steyr-Solothurn S1-100 SMG (which is a very nice and good-looking SMG, by the way).

    Does the show involve time travel? A sort of 1920s Birmingham Doctor Who prequel?

    Agreed the series was great, but maybe I am missing something? Maybe I am being more than usually dim? But for the life of me, I just don't get it? What is the connection between an inter-war period Midlands based gangsta drama and a 21st Century brightly coloured midget's air rifle?
