    Don't listen to him, he's just grooming you for his sadistical Weihrauch initiation

    But luckily I was here before him and he's not managed to bring me in to his cult, so stick with me kid and I'll save you from his evil clutches

    We'll see where his allegiance lies when he tells us what rifle(s) he owns

    Easy tiger!

    Anyways, wild guess.......me thinks Sam has an AA PCP.

    P.S......Correction.....it's a HW77. Nice one, Sam. Maybe more than one gun, though?

    I've got a hw77 from the 80s, MK2 I think? (Sliding under lever catch)
    I am looking at getting an air arms s500 or s400. Ideally I want an hft500

    Yep, your '77 sounds like what we think of as a MarkII (there wasn't any official designation).

    Aha, see, nearly right with the AA PCP guess.

    Must admit, if I did PCPs, that HFT 500 looks very attractive to me.

    Sod it, he's already been brain raped and his common sense f****d out of him

    BUT there may be redemption if he gets an AA PCP
