    just googled - it is also made by Sumatra, hence the similarity to the career !

    but $800 eash - that's a bit much ! I think the importers are taking the michael.. 95 FP in .22, over 100 in .25
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    man, for that I might even buy a new one...

    check out this vid.. very impressive accuracy - obviously running around 30 fp, but still

    looks great value too.. But why don't they back off the hammer spring a smite to flatten out the power curve ? Eash, simple stuff. I kow the yanks like power, but every shot is losing velocity... just back the hammer off so the first shot is coming out at around 920 - where shot #10 currently is anyways - that'll pretty much give you double the shots within a decent spread - two mags.

    I see the flash is available on that same link for £425 - but that includes a scope and a pump, so still around £325-£350 for the gun itself.

    I test fired a Vectis at the Pyramyd Air Cup earlier this year - they sold them with an additional 20% off, so I was very impressed with the quattro trigger, 32 ft lbs and how light it was for $269! It was much better than I thought it would be, way too much plastic of course, but that's how they can make them cheaper. I liked it so much I told the rep I would buy one the next day - however at the big banquet they held that night I won a Hatsan Flash, and as I was walking away with it, the rep was there and said, i suppose you won't be needing that Vectis now.... I didn't buy one, but will get one, next time they are on special offer!

    Gentlemen, I am sorry if this is a silly question, and it probably is, but I really fancy on being a sucker for an ugly duckling or something unusual.
    Can I buy one, thinking of the shop at Neath, I do not have a FAC and would take it down to below 12 ft-lbs.?
    get me coat.
    Many thanks and a Good Christmas to all.
    Cheers.
    Geoff.

    You won't be able to buy an FAC version and take it down.

    Just see if you can by a sub-FAC version. Simples.

    Thank you very much, I didn't know if a 12 ft-lbs was available. I did try to get some info but failed, out of stock etc.
    Thanks again.
    Cheers.

    Nearly 5lb trigger pull to much for my pinkies. Also regarding the other korean gun, why? The sumartra will do the same and is smaller.

    Hi well the Samatra is twice the price, but what is the problem? Solewhere/Pellpax etc. advertise them but come up as being out of stock! Has anyone an idea why this should be?
    Cheers.
    Geoff.
