    So I applaud a British company for producing a fine looking rifle that if it shoots anywhere near as good as it looks should be excellent. I wish them every sales success in domestic and export markets. Well done Air Arms!

    Well said, gets a thumbs up from me

    This is a near thing to that, my HFT500 with a Sure Shot stock, carbon fibre shrouded barrel and one of my air strippers. Just as accurate as my Steyr LG110:-

    Nope, still under wraps, it's rumoured that it will be launched at the Gun Show in February, however, I'm not committing to 2023

    TBH the fact that it's not yet released may well mean AA are wanting all the niggles sorted before release. I remember the FTP900 release and the hundreds of issues that were fed back to AA, my mate personally had to return 4 FTP900s for defects. I think it's good that AA aren't using paying customers to locate R&D issues like before.

    Couple of the wafta boys using them are now putting in top scores with them so must be happy with it. Release date must be imminent.
