Well, I have managed three out of the above five, all in the space of four days!
In the past week I have:
1. Purchased a Baikal MP-651k from Freeads.
2. Got my Zastava back together and tested at the club.
3. Successfully got the bell target ringing through the 1/2 inch plate with my Senior!
The 20 yard range I am going to shoot at is currently closed for a couple of months, and I will just have to wait until April for the Melbourne airgun fair...
Too many guns, or not enough time?
I bought 13 webley pistols last year and worked out the 3 I required for semi completion are
The 2 pre war seniors
And a mark 2 target.
Save my money and get these three.......
So far...
A Nemesis £30
A post war Junior £50
And a June 1964 Senior £120.
All good buys but not the biggies I wanted!
I have decided my main agenda for 2019 will be a new pistol build project. This time I am changing tack a bit and it is a post-1950 German design, rather than a pre-1950 British design as previous. The pistol in question is the incredbly rare Haenel 55R repeater. I am about a third the way there and there are some major challenges ahead, but the effort will be well worth it if I can see it through:
To try to get to Binners air gun fair at Kempton Park and finding a mint Benjamin 397C and a Howa 55G.
Mmmm....The great condition BSA Magnum 635 bought from Troubleshooter, a member on this Forum (thank you for a great deal) is the very last of the collection....This is it, no more for 2019. I will also not look at very tempting offers from member Guy (thank you also for great deals in the past)....No more, and I mean it this time, no more.....
Best regards to all.....
To hit something I am actually aiming at.

Try my hand at a few 10 metre competitions for pistol and rifle.
