    Heads up on Air Arms

    https://www.facebook.com/12490864093...0452863048810/

    All Air Arms products are all being sold through a new distributor and disappointingly with this comes some considerable price increase's, we really had hoped prices would come down with the new wholesaler :-(, we have a couple of Pro Sports and a Tx200 at the old prices but everything else will be at the new price as of today :-(

    Will be intrigued to see how much certain models increase by, I hope they are not too greedy and price themselves out of the market.

    Kindest regards

    I was amazed Air Arms didn't sell direct to dealers in the UK.

    Do BSA and daystate sell direct?

    I wondered why Google couldnt find AA parts diagrams from Rothery site. They were very clear if you ignored the odd typo!

    Maybe, like Diana, they are bored of being in business and want to sell the brand to the Chinese?

    It's definitely Debens, I'm waiting on some parts from my RFD, he says there has been a bit of a delay as Debens aren't up to speed yet with the changeover, hopefully get them this week.

    No, BSA wholesale via John Knibbs in Shustoke.

    Certainly has hit the prices in the dive centre/airgun shop where I go to fill my bottle. Checked the cost of .22 Air Arms Diablo pellets, now an unbelievable £15.95 for a tin of 500. Shop owner said it was all down to Air Arms changing distributors...……………………. hmmmm, maybe a little bit of profiteering going on as well. For me the best thing to do is to move over to another brand
