    My local RFD has a good quality pistol scope in stock. Will contact him tomorrow and PM you.

    You will need to give a lot more detail to get a valid recommendation

    Distance, calibre, springer, BR, weight restrictions, mag restriction, HFT????????……………………..

    I think the pistol scope is a Burris variable mag. You can contact Brothers in Arms in Christchurch Dorset.

    That should be this one in theory then https://www.burrisoptics.com/scopes/...cope-3-12x32mm

    I've been waiting for this one https://www.jsramsbottom.com/enfield...tol-sight.html for ages but I doubt the factory is making them again.
    So bought the same one without Enfield on it and without mildots jsr had them too for sale.

    Give that one a go first before splashing out.
    It's not for everyone, pistol scopes that is.

    You can also try scout scopes.

    Leupold FXII 4x28. You may have to special order it.

    Honestly, though, you want a “starter” scope for an air pistol, for unspecified target shooting, at £500?

    I am going to guess the op was after an FT scope for a rifle.

    The OP joined over two years ago and posted twice before now, he has not even been back to look at the advice in the past 10 days since he posted asking for it, the thread would be better locked and forgotten.

    Yes, a lot of people who ask advice do not seem to respond when people try to help them. Anyway this is available for £125 mins mounts...
