    Sterling airguns

    Not been on for a while and may have lost touch, but was wondering if the rifles that Sterling were thinking of making are actually going to happen?

    Had a very quick squint through the net but couldn't find anything....

    No. They went wobbly bits up a while back.

    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Just wait a few years then you will be able to download the specs on your phone and print off whichever Sterling takes your fancy on your Lenovo 3-d metalloplastic printer.

    Alternatively, have a look at the nightmare contraption they nearly inflicted on us... and be glad you can buy a ProSport instead.

    id rather my park rh93 to that contraption. the cocking lever the same side as you have to put your hands to open the breech i know there is a safety but if that lever did come forward as you used the breech thats would be nasty. also £1500 bugger that. no wonder they went bust.

    Probably for the best that they didn't bother by the looks/ sounds of it

    the park rh 91/93 rifle was a quality rifle. that contraption is a safety nightmare. looks as good as quozzie modo. why the hell did they put the breech bolt on the same side as the sidelever????
