    Airgun world free magazine difference

    How come the free magazine with airgun world is different in particular stores? I bought the latest AGW in Tesco in Horwich, Bolton on Saturday and it came with a free copy of sporting shooter. Not my usual read, but I find bits interesting and hey, it's free. Went into Tesco in Farnworth, Bolton, on Monday, and the same copy of AGW was bundled with Airgunner?! Had I known I could have got it with Airgunner instead I maybe wouldn't have bought it earlier.

    Why the different bundles in different stores of the same chain?

    I believe our marketing department go with what has worked best in the past, mate. Also, there could be more relevant content in one mag' than another, which would prompt a targeted promotion. That's how I think it works, anyway, although I'm pleased to say that marketing isn't under my control, so I could be wrong.

    I've said pretty much everything you chaps have wished for, plus Air Arms looks at this forum on a regular basis.

    All I'm saying is, they always listen, then they go away to do the numbers. New stuff IS on the way, but I'm not at liberty to reveal anything at the moment. Keep the faith, chaps - you never know.

    Marvellous!

    That means we is going to get one, in'it?

    If you need a further opinion on testing the prototype, just shout up.



    Tell me.....does it have a manual barrel latch?

    I couldn't possibly say.

    All I said to them was, you lot wanted 'sumfin in a pretend military style wiv plenty of tactical plastic on it, wot's par'ful an' accrut, wiv two Hox springs in it to give it a proper kick, an' a gurt-long barrel wot makes it more better.'

    I trust I got the brief right, chaps?

    Spot on, in that case I won't need to buy one as my AA combat will be just as good

    Nahh, you need the Sussex Armoury/Air Arms Parabellum to match our Tel's brief, as that is the one (iirc) with the 'Kentucky Rifle' length barrel as per our 'we want' brief ... A bayonet attachment and a camo plastic stock option to be added to Terry's creation would be good, too, no ???
